My Online earnings journey: Nostalgia down the years - Part II

Tweet

Continues from : 2011 and 2012- These years saw the rise of mypage5 for me, and mylot was still holding ground. I also tried a few more Pay for click sites but not many succeeded for me. In year 2012, due to some confusion and rigid rules, I was out of Helium. I tried to contact them and give me one more chance, but they did not oblige. In Mid 2012, I joined a site named Wikinut for article writing, and this was a breakthrough year for me as an online writer. The online community there and the moderators helped me in honing and polishing my writing skills. Some of the moderators there have had been active on Bubblews and even here on Mylot as well in the past. The years 2013 and 2014- In year 2013 starting I felt a bit disappointed when first mypage5 went almost dead, and then mylot stopped paying. Then it was the rise of that phenomenon named Bubblews, and I was earning good(well many others earned much more), and for the first time I started believing that may be one day online earning can be a big time substitute for offline earnings. I got some 5 or 6 payouts in all in those two years, but due to the changes in advertising rules probably on Google, the earnings started to slow down after July 2014. By early 2015, the earnings were creeping. Year 2015- There was Tsu- a promising social networking site, but the earnings were slow. Bubblews was on the wane, and it went out in this year. I felt a bit dejected but later felt ok. My earnings rate on Wikinut increased and I began to get some foothold and recognition there. I also wrote a few story series there. But by end 2015, I was disappointed when Wikinut stopped being a paying site. But by end 2015, there was Blogjob and a revamped Mylot. 2016- Blogjob was a bright spot for me in early 2016, and I was publishing some nice spy story series there. But I got the jolt in May when it also stopped paying. Then, there was a review site that I joined and it was good till some time. Then, literacybase came and I got one $25 payout in December 2016. I wrote some nice articles there and the site looked a long term one. On Mylot, I was contributing but not that much. 2017- This was the year when some of my personal issues were causing a lot of stress, but I came out with a long (17+) story series on Literacybase- a spy thriller and war theme based story series. Well, another shock came in around May 2017, when Literacybase too went a bit dormant. So I was back with a greater intensity in 2017 March onwards, and had some good time here, which continues till date. 2017 and 2018 - well with two published articles on Twodropsofink site and good going on mylot, I am not exploring many sites, except for forumcoin. I need to pull up my socks with respect to writing, which has taken a backseat later, but I hope to clear the path and move on. Have a great time ahead. (concludes)
