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.

Articles Written by snowfence on Infobarrel

Here is the complete list of my online articles that I have written on Infobarrel. Please feel free to read and comment on them. Also, please let me know if any of these links is not working. Thank you very much!

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.

How to Find Ways to Save Money When You Don't Think You Have Any Money to Save

How to Stick With That Minimum Wage Job and Be Proud

How to Prepare for a Job Interview

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.

Articles Written by snowfence on Bukisa

Here is the complete list of online articles that I have written on Bukisa. Please feel free to read and comment. Also, please let me know if any of these links is not working. Thank you very much!

Here is my referral link for anyone who would like to join Bukisa. Bukisa is free to join, and anyone can earn money there by writing articles online.

How to Check on Your State Income Tax Refund Status

How to Begin a Career Making Money By Writing Online

I really enjoyed writing online at the site called Bukisa. I ended up only writing two articles, though. I was finally interested in finding other sites to write on since I could no longer write for eHow. Actually, I could still write for eHow. I would suddenly need to apply as a writer, though, even though I had already written 65 articles there and was making pretty good money.

I made some money from Bukisa, and I am pleased that I had picked up on the opportunity to have earned money there. I may eventually write there again. I am still a member there. For now though, I am only writing on List My Five and blogging. It is a very slow start for both List My Five and for the blogging. I am not a quitter, though, and I am putting my all into this new venture.

Articles Written by snowfence on eHow

This was the complete list of online articles that I have written on eHow. I deleted all the links since I have sold all rights to them , so they are no longer my articles.

eHow is also a free online writing site to join. eHow is a little more strict with their writers. Good Luck to anyone who may wish to start writing there. You need to join through Demand Studios. I have really earned alot of money writing for eHow, and I am very proud of my beginnings there. Thanks to ALL my readers!

eHow is where I began my online writing career and started earning money by working at home. I had written many articles on eHow, and I had written on a wide variety of topics. I totally enjoyed writing articles online for eHow, and I will always treasure my experience there. I had met many friends at eHow, and I still see many of these online friends from eHow while searching the internet for other money making opportunities where I can earn money by working at home.

Most of the old eHow writers are still writing online. They have all scattered and went their separate ways continuing on with their journeys as online writers, bloggers, and exploring many other online money making opportunities. I had never even known that is was possible to earn money by working at home until I joined eHow and began writing. It was totally shocking and unbelievable to me that I could actually get paid for writing articles.

I was convinced that all work at home opportunities were scams. Believe me, I had tried enough of them. eHow showed me, though, that this is totally not true. They really are not all scams. I just seemed to always be finding the scams. I had always gotten into things that required an initial investment or even monthly investments. These were all opportunities that had failed. I have wasted tons of money by trying to earn money by working at home. I am done wasting my money now on these ventures. There really are many legitimate opportunities for making money on the internet.

That is why I will always continue on with my own journey to make money by working at home. I know that if I stick with this, someday I will find the right income opportunity for me. Many others have already found their work at home income opportunities that they are very happy with. One thing I know is that I will no longer be investing any amount of my hard earned money to work at home. I will only be investing my time and my abilities. I am also always open for any suggestions.
