I've been in Triond for more than a year now and lately, I haven't been all that active.
Anyway, I thought of a series of topics that I think will generate great money for me and I'm planning on posting in Triond, but while I was browsing about Triond here in myLot, I learned that Triond isn't that good compared to other similar services, so I'm planning to try another publisher (or write for multiple publishers).
So I'm asking for your help my lotters. If we could pit each article publishing sites against each other, highlight the pros and cons of the different publishers, I think that would make a very good and helpful discussion here. It'll help a lot of people like me who're starting up.
I know that some self-host and it's more profitable that way, but I have a full-time job that requires a lot of brain attention (and rest, I'm a programmer) that I hardly have the time nor energy to set up my own. I am planning to, but not now. Maybe next year. So if you can, please avoid pointing out that self-hosting is better.
Anyway, I'll start. Since I have been with Triond (and it's the only one I've tried) here are the Pros (don't have cons for Triond. I'm really satisfied, with it so I hope you could give me a different insight about triond)
Triond:
- pays on time
- can integrate with Google Adsense
- minimum payout of .01 dollars
- paypal payment
- upload .doc (doesn't suppprt photos though),.txt, etc

I just joined Squidoo and I was wondering how much money you make per month and how many lenses you have. I'm still trying to decide if the site is a good fit for me. I enjoy creating lenses, so a more doing it for fun and money – but it would be nice if I could make a little bit of money to. I'm trying to decide if the site is worth it. I just heard from someone who has like 20 lenses and she only makes a few dollars a month. That would be disappointing. Also, what you write about on Squidoo? I'd be interested in any tips you can give me. Thanks.

yes, this is not a quick rich site but here you have to write quality articles.You can add Amazon and eBay products.Minimum payment is $1 and paid monthly in your pay pal account.
The higher the lens rank,the higher the payout.You can promote your lens in your own way to get the traffic. This needs really a hard work to get established and get handsome money.

wow. all these talk about lens got me confused.
Please tell me if I got the concept right.
I'll write an article for squidoo, the article is called a lens
The lens I created will be ranked according to how well it is written and how informative it is. If so, who ranks it? Squidoo admins or squidoo members or any netizen (any person using the Internet and finds my article

Hi Knicnax, since you have joined Triond a year back, about the same time as me, I would say that you continue with Triond as the main writing site.
You can join Redgage and Wikinut as secondary site for reposting your content.
That does not require more effort and time in writing.
You just have to repost the same content, with or without change a single word to both Wikinut and Redgage.
Redgage will give you a Visa Debit card once you have reached the minimum payout of twenty five dollars.
The page view payment is very low, less than a dollar per 1000 page views.
However, you can join the daily contest to win twenty five dollars every day.
The reader base is larger than Triond.
For every page view that you get in Triond, you can likely to get three to four in Redgage.
If your content get featured, you will get a bonus between two dollars to five dollars.
Wikinut is very low paying site but the traffic is better than Triond too.
I think when Wikinut becomes a more established site, the earning will get better.
The minimum payout is about two pounds.
Payment through Paypal, which allows you to convert to your home currencies.
I have received numerous payments from both Redgage and Wikinut.

Hi Knicnax, yes, they accept international writers.
I am from Asia too.
I have gotten payments from them several times, so I can say that these sites are legitimate, at least for the past few years.
Just join them and submit your content.
Even if you take a few months to reach payout from Redgage, since the minimum is twenty five dollars, you are not wasting your time.

I also write for Triond and you can make decent money writing about good topics. There is another website called Allvoices which gives you an opportunity to write about a variety of topics, I am just starting to check them out so I don't know how well they work out or the earnings. I am also just getting active here on MyLot, it seems like a great site and hopefully, will earn here, too.

When did they change to a 1c payment thresh-hold? Truth be told I wrote 2 articles there once upon a time and still earn 50c/month by doing nothing monthly. If only I had written a few more.... The cons would be the slow earnings and that its based on views, not purchased like some people prefer.
