LM5 is down!

Oh great...  ListMyFive (listmy5) is down!  What the heck?!  I had over 150 articles written on LM5!  Oh yeah, so I guess this is not a good way to earn money.  LOL  It is too bad listmy5 had to close so abruptly.  It is also horrible how they never even told their writers about this.  It sure makes eHow look good!

I am wondering, though...  What are all you LM5 (listmy5) writers doing now?!  Please leave a comment so we can all keep up on what is going on now.  Thanks!!!

Does anyone have any input on LM5 (listmy5) closing down?!  I wonder if they will be back or if they are gone forever.  I did receive my July payment, so that's good.  I hope everyone else who wrote for ListMyFive got paid, at least.

EDITED:  LM5 is up and running again.  I'm not sure how much faith I have in them after that episode, though.

It is Hard to Meet the Monthly Minimum Payout on LM5 - List My Five

Short and well...  not so sweet...  Here it is.  I finally got my earnings update on List My Five.  LOL  I have earned a whopping $2.83 so far this month.  Considering that this $2.83 is for 1/2 a month, it sure looks like it will be impossible to earn the monthly minimum payout of $10 this month for writing on LM5.  The earnings really rot right now, but the site is just short of being only a year old.  I guess ListMy5 needs time to grow.

Still, I would think I could at least earn the monthly minimum payout.  $10 is really not that much, especially with 153 articles.  I sure hope things will get better.  The question is:  Is my writing that bad or is it just LM5?

Yes, I am feeling quite discouraged right now about writing online to earn money by working at home.  Oh well, there are plenty of other websites out there that pay people for writing articles.  I am just wondering what to do at this point.  I am in no hurry to switch writing sites or to quit writing.  At least these pennies are adding up.  LOL  Slowly!

Writing Online at List My Five is Not Earning Nearly as Much Money as I Had Expected

I really thought that I would be earning much more money than this by writing online at List My Five.  Today is the 14th, and so far this month, I have only earned 78 cents.  I could certainly see so little earnings with just a few articles, but I have written 153 articles on LM5.  I think this is pretty ridiculous.  It is about time to start considering writing articles somewhere else online.  List My Five is just not paying well at all.  It's too bad, too.  I really thought that LM5 was going to be an awesome website to write online and get paid for working at home.

I can use just ONE coupon and save more money than what I have earned on List My Five in 1/2 a month.  That is not good.  I really wanted to earn money by working at home, maybe I should just spend more time clipping coupons.  LOL  Coupons are the best way to save money for me right now, and pretty much the only way to save money.

I don't want to save money, though.  I want to earn money!  Well, I want to save money AND earn money.  The earning part is just horrendous right now.  I need to do something to fix that and quick.

Articles Written by snowfence on Factoidz

I just joined Factoidz which is another site for writing articles online and getting paid for it.  I will be posting my articles here with the newest article always on the top of the list.  I have heard that Factoidz is a great site to write for, and they also pay more money for your articles.  Only time will tell...

Here is my referral link for writing on Factoidz if anyone would like to give it a try.

My first article was rejected for being 'duplicated content'.  This was MY article that I wrote all on my own, too.  You cannot argue with these people, so whatever.   They didn't even return my article after reviewing it, either.
  
**  Always make a backup copy of your article before submitting it, or you may never see it again.

Here are the links to all of my articles that I have written on Factoidz with the newest always being added to the top of the list:

How to Get Over Your Fear of Birds

 5/2/11 - My 3rd article was rejected, too.  So, I published it on List My Five.  I think I am about done with Factoidz.  This is just ridiculous!  Here is the link to it.  :(

The Top Five Reasons to Learn the Side Effects and Warnings For Drugs and Medications

4/29/11 - My article was finally accepted!  LOL  I really have to admit that wasn't so hard after all.  I just needed to add a few facts...   I should have known that considering the site is called Factoidz.

4/28/11 - My 2nd article was returned to me for editing with no explanation why.  I changed the wording and title a bit, and resubmitted it.  It was returned to me again.  This time, Factoidz said they wanted more facts.  I added a few facts, and resubmitted it.  I am still awaiting their approval, and needless to say...  I am NOT so excited anymore.

4/25/11 - Alright, I wrote my 2nd article and submitted it to Factoidz.  This new article is something that I have never, ever wrote about before in any way whatsoever.  There is absolutely no way that Factoidz can do this to me again.  This time, my article will either be accepted or rejected for a real reason.  I should know the verdict in 3 to 4 days.  I am so excited!

Here is the link for my 1st article that I wrote for Factoidz that they rejected.  I published it on List My Five instead.

More List My Five Articles Written by snowfence Starting With #134...

Here is my new list of articles that I have written online for List My Five.  This new list starts with my 134th article that I have written on List My Five. I am really enjoying this great money making income opportunity for working at home. It is extremely easy to just sit down right in the comfort of your own home, hop on the computer, write an article, and get paid for writing it.

I am not grouping these articles in any particular way.  I am just adding the newest articles that I write to the top of the list.  The 134th article is about helping friends by promoting their articles.  That link will be the last one on this list if anyone might be wondering where it is once this list begins to grow.  Thank you so much for visiting my blog.

Articles Written by snowfence on List My Five

Here is the complete list of online articles that I have written on List My Five.  I will be adding the newest articles at the top of the list as they are published.  Thank you very much for your interest.  Please feel free to read these articles and leave any comments.  Also, high fives are greatly appreciated!

List My Five is a great place to join for free and earn money by writing articles online.

Please let me know if any of these links does not work.  Thank you again!

This list contains my first 133 articles that I have written on List My Five.  I began writing on List My Five on February 16, 2011.  With this 133rd article, I have just earned my first payout.  You need to earn at least $10 before getting paid.  Any real amount of earnings for writing online will take a bit of time.  For anyone who may decide to give writing online as a way of earning income from home a try, please remember that it takes a lot of patience.  Your pay will begin slowly with just a little trickle, but even once you are done writing your articles will still be earning money.  This is called residual income.

I believe it's time to start a new post for this one.  Please check out my articles listed on this post if you have the time.  Thank you so much!  Then you can continue on to my next post for any newer articles that I will be writing online at List My Five.

As you can see, I have written many articles online.  I have written on a variety of websites, too.  I started out writing online at eHow.  When eHow changed their writing platform, I stopped writing for a while.  I was pretty upset about eHow doing this, and I just could not bring myself to write any more articles.  It was a real struggle even just considering looking for another online writing site to join.  I had already known eHow, and I had become quite comfortable there.

Eventually though, I finally pulled myself together enough to scrape myself up off the floor, wipe myself off, and join another site called Bukisa.  I did not last there very long.  I only wrote two articles on Bukisa.  I guess I had figured that I would test the waters with two articles, let them simmer for a bit, and wait to see what would happen.

Meanwhile, I had the tremendous urge to start writing again.  I really missed writing on eHow, and they paid for your articles once you had hit a minimum of at least an earnings of $10.  On Bukisa, the pay was probably about the same.  I just was so unsure about this new site.  I had always had the urge to write articles online and get paid for it.  I just wanted to start really slow after the whole eHow thing, though.

Actually, before joining Bukisa, I had joined Textbroker.  I had been told how great that Textbroker was, so I had decided to try that site out.  That is another online writing site, but Textbroker pays writers for their articles once they are written.  You actually get paid a couple of dollars or so for each article that you write there.  I had decided that Textbroker was not where I would enjoy writing due to the fact that many of my articles on eHow had earned much more money than that.

After doing absolutely nothing on Textbroker, I decided that it was time for me to move on.  I was told how great that Hubpages was, so I checked into that site for online writers.  I had ended up joining Hubpages.  Although Hubpages is another online site for writers, it just did not seem the same.  I was just all too confused about the whole thing there.  It was just too soon for me to start writing articles online again, I guess.

This blog is just for keeping all of my online articles together in one spot for me.  It really makes everything so much easier to keep everything together.  I can just click on any article that I want, no matter where it was written.  Many times I want to check up on my older articles just to see how they are doing or maybe even just to decide if I would like to edit them or not.

I have been told that this is called spamming, but I really do not see why.  This is my collection of articles, and this is my blog.  I have been told that adding any links can only be done if you add at least 100 words per link.  Well, I have added a lot of stuff here, so I sure hope that this is enough.  I honestly have no intentions of spamming.  Please feel free to leave any comments concerning this matter.  Thank you again for taking your time out of your busy schedule to come and visit my blog!  Please check out my profile along with my other blogs.

My articles are all very plain and simple.  This would be a great example for anyone to see what writing online and getting paid to work at home is like.  I truly enjoy my work at home experience, and this is something that anyone can easily do.

Here is my referral link for anyone who would like to join Infobarrel for free and start earning money by writing online.  You can surely see that there is a nice variety in my articles.  Writing online is really easy, and anyone can do this.  You do not need to be a professional writer by any means.

I had joined Infobarrel quite soon after joining Bukisa.  I guess that is why I had only written two articles on Bukisa.  I began devoting more of my time on Infobarrel.  The problem with Infobarrel is that I had to sign up for google adsense.  Google adsense does not pay you for writing online articles until you reach a minimum of earning at least $100.  After writing these few articles, I had decided that Infobarrel was not quite right for me either.

To this day, I still really miss the old eHow and all of my wonderful friends that I had made there.  My friends on eHow were really awesome.  I had made literally thousands of friends while writing online articles on eHow, and I had only written there for 2 1/2 months.  eHow had an awesome way of running things back then.  It really is too bad that they had to go and change everything.  I am still getting paid monthly for all the articles that I had written for eHow, so that is a great plus.

I have no idea when or if I will ever be getting paid any money for writing these articles on Infobarrel.  If I would go back there and write more articles, maybe I would get paid someday.  I need to earn at least $100 before I will get paid.  That $100 will include my Bukisa articles now that they have also changed their pay system and switched over to google adsense.  If I will ever earn any money from blogging, that money will also be included in with the minimum earnings of $100.

I guess that the more that I treat this whole online writing thing as a career, the more, and the quicker it will be that I will reach that first payout of $100.  I have seen many friends reaching their minimum payouts, so I know that this really is possible to do.

I hope that is enough 'fillers' added to qualify this as not being spam.  I honestly have no desire to spam, ever.  I have been told that I can not add links like this, and that I need to add at least 100 words per link that I add or it is called spamming.  I am only creating a collection of all my online writings here, though.

I am truly sorry if I have bothered anyone by posting the links to these articles here in my Articles Written by snowfence blog.  This blog is for my entire collection of articles that I have written online of which I am quite proud of.  Writing online and now blogging has begun taking over my life.  It is awesome, though, and I truly enjoy both writing online and blogging.  I can not believe that it has taken me so long to begin blogging.  I had always been too scared to blog.  Now that I have started blogging, I only wish that I had started much sooner.
