Half Way Through April: Earnings

Since I am just getting back to the site after several years of absence, I was wondering what to expect with earnings. I have seen a couple of you comment that you had already made the $5.00 minimum monthly payout and that is awesome. I have not reached it yet, but will in another day I think. Since the month is half of the way gone, I think I'm doing fairly well for a "newbie." Do you guys always make your payout each month? Or do you always go over? I can see how it is very possible to at least double or triple the minimum payout here with some good discussions and time put in to comment. So my big question to you is, what is your normal monthly payout run? Photo: public domain

It ranges depending of course on interaction. =) Usually I earn anywhere from $10-$20.

I vary every month. And it depends on the time that I have to devote to the site. This month I reached the minimum around the middle of the month, so its probably going to be twice that this month, unless I start to slack, or everyone else starts to slack, we need each other for payouts.

It's all depends upon how much time and effort you put in here. If you want to earn the most possible, then you have to work for it.

@LindaOHio It is a very nice little community here. I love it. Before, I think we had our own little group from the various writing sites we belonged to. Now it is like the doors are open to everyone and more diverse.

Yes, just keep commenting and posting you will get there. I think a normal payout for most is 10-12 dollars a month, but some make much more and others much less. It isn't really about the money although of course it is a nice benefit..and no one would be here without the money.

The money is what keeps most here I imagine. Of course, I can see lots of nice friendships forming also!

I came back a month before you and it seems like we'll reach payout at about the same time. I don't think I'll reach payout every month. I don't start enough discussions and very often real life interwenes. I'm not stressed though, it's a combination of a social thing, "meeting" people from all over the world and earning money, so when I reach payout it's more like nice bonus

I am sure there will be months where I won't make payout either. I like to do things outdoors and I love to travel. I also have two new grandbabies so I love to spend time with them. Nice platform here and a great way to make friends in other countries and your own that you otherwise would never meet! Good luck!!

I almost always make my $5 each month. Right now I’m at $2 because the kids have been on spring break so I haven’t been on much.

Thanks for the feedback, C! You still have half a month to make the payout so you can still make that happen :)

As soon as I really convince myself to buckle down, work and stay consistent, I'm sure I will be able to reach about a thousand bucks or so every month. Oh, I am just so funny : When I get a consistent schedule I will be more than happy with reaching a cash out every month, whatever the amount.

You should experiment and see how "certain" it would be. Come and play here for a certain number of minutes per day and see if it is worthwhile.

Mine varies, as I am sure a lot of others does. There are a few here that have invested a lot of time on the site and make double or triple the cashout each month. I can say that I've already made cashout for this month, and I'd like to make a few more dollars. Personally, if I can, I like to try to make atleast double. It depends on how I am feeling, what else I've got going on, and who all is here for me to converse with.
