Lately, there has been much speculation about Triond article earnings and whether these have been cut in half.
As well, discussion has arisen about just how revenue is generated. It has been bandied about that writers don't actually earn on ad clicks, rather, only on purchases arising from those clicks.
Even more alarming, I've seen and read statements that Triond is a scam and that writers would do well to steer clear.
What's the Truth About Triond Article Earnings?
1) First up to bat is the claim that Triond revenues have been cut in half. I've addressed this in my article Triond Earnings Cut in Half: True or False?
2) Second, is the rumor that Triond article earnings are only generated when someone makes a purchase, as a result of advertising. I've covered this concern in The Real Skinny on Triond Revenue: Generated by Actual Clicks on Ads, or on Purchases Generated From Those Ads?
3) Thirdly, there's the claim that Triond is a scam. I can speak from experience because I've been writing for Triond for a couple of years. When you are with a content site for some time, you gain an insider feel for how things work. You also have experience with article earnings and payments for same.
My Experiences With Triond Article Earnings
I've been paid month after month since I started with Triond. Now, it has taken time to grow monthly earnings and it also takes work--not just in writing articles but in promoting them so they receive traffic; however, all that said, if you work hard, Triond is still a good little opportunity.

Probably not; but, if are looking at ways to earn revenue from your writing, Triond deserves a look. Many online writers write for a number of sites so that they have multiple income streams coming in.
All this does take very hard work but writers know why they are willing to invest the hours.

Hot Triond Articles That Get the Most Views and Why
I have been writing on Triond for 2 years and I have always been paid. In recent months my earnings have dropped by half but I beieve this is due to the current financial climate and a probable reduction in advertising spending.
ReplyDeleteThe other factor could possibly be that Triond is attracting more and more writers and they have to make the revenue they earn go around, so everyone gets less.

Very helpful article. Thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteOne question, I have just started, it has been 2 days now. I have a total of 3 articles. One having 7 views, another 4 pageviews and the third of my articles has received 39 views. But I haven't even got a cent? When does one earn his first cent?
Hi Faith,
ReplyDeleteYour earnings should show fairly soon. If I remember, when I first started, it took awhile for them to show up on the dashboard.
A good rule of thumb, to earn more, is to interlink your related articles.
