Free money is almost always a phrase that is submerged in scams. Only once in my life have I found a way to make free money. Triond. Triond is a cool website that alows you to submit any kind of text you’ve written, from essays, to articles,poems even recipes. Any kind of text. Once youve submited your text, Triond then distributes it to certain websites that are inhabited by people who are interested in the topic of your text. When someone clicks on the link to your document, Triond makes advertizing money, and gives you, yes YOU half of the money it earns from that click. So when Bob clicks on your article on a book lets say, then Triond earns advertizing money from the website that article is on. Triond then calculates exactly how much that one click was worth and gives you 50%. Triond is a great site for people who love creative writing or people who simpley love to write. The coolest thing about Triond is that when it comes time for you to claim the money you’ve just earned, you’re information is secure, and you don’t have to worry about recieving junk mail after you recieve your check. When you log into your account, the “dashboard” page comes up, which displays how much youve earned today, and in total. On this page you can also see from which countries your views come from as well as which websites are giving you the most views. Triond even offers achievements, “badges” rather, that encourage you to reach the next milestone and write more so that you can show off your achievements and earn your bragging rights. The website also shows you how many views each of your articles have and how much each has earned you. People can comment on your writting and also give a “like”, sort of like facebook. Sadley there is no real trend in how many views earn how much money. For example, someone may earn three cents persay on one article for twenty views, where as another article might earn only four cents for fifty. You might find that you earned five cents for an article with only five views. It is not random exactly, there is a method for this madness. Certain websites that your articles go on, depending on their popularity most likely, will earn more money then others. Obviously more views eaqual more money but as stated before, there isn’t a distinct trend. I cannot say for sure, but I have heard that if you want to aspire to make the optimal amount of money for your work, Triond makes it so you must write frequently. For example: someone who writes ten articles on Monday and submits them to Triond, but does not write until the next Monday, might find that they are not earning much. Where as someone who writes two articles a day everyday, might enjoy greater success. Frequency is the key. It is also smart to take advantage of Trionds services. Add friends to your profile page, just as you would on facebook. Then you’ve just set your self up for somone to check out your work out of curiousity: more views for you!. Triond also allows you to share your content with social networks such as facebook, or even websites of your own! This way your views can skyrocket. The last thing to do to increase your income is to check out the content page. Listed there are the most populor tags. That is, the most popular words people type in the search bar. When submiting your work, add in these tags along with the tags actualy relevent to your work. This way people will be more likely to come across your work and add to your view count. All in all Triond is a cool way to express your writing skill and to make a little extra money for free! But in honesty, it is not really possible to make a living off of Triond alone. I read some where that you would have to submit somewhere between a hundred to a thousand articles a day to earn a small living. But in fun, it is a cool way to make some extra cash. Happy Writting!
