eHow Update

I just thought I would blog about my eHow earnings and such since I mostly complain about my job now. eHow is paying off big time now...really. I was really bummed when my laptop died and I couldn't write for a month - but it looks like even without writing, my earnings steadily increased. I'm now paying most of my bills with eHow money now (Well, my part. Rob and I split them in half) Woo Hoo.

I'm really surprised at my top earners, they aren't what I thought they would be.
These are 4 of my top earners so far.
How To Change Your Name After Marriage
- 58.43
How To Lose Weight With Cayenne Pepper - 52.56
How To Apply For Section 8 Housing - 44.82
How To Get Rid Of Dark Circles Under Your Eyes - 32.56

My earnings for from eHow SO far this year for 2009 is: Totals to Date $1,229.81. I'd really like to be one of those eHower that earns 1,000 a month. I know there are some. Now, I'm worried about tax time. Eekk. I know I'm going to have to pay some back.

Pretty nice, considering it took like 30 minutes to write each one and just watch it grow every month. I'd like to do more with eHow lately, but I just don't have all the time I want to do it. I try to at least write 3 -4 articles a week, but since I've had this cold (which I still think is swine flu..) I haven't felt like it. Not to mention my hours at work, trying to fit in my jogging in between work, and reading.

I applied for a writer on Demand Studios, hopefully I'll hear something back soon. *Crossing my fingers*, I would really love that up-front pay for articles. I also have thought about getting into other writing sites like Examiner but like I said before, I just don't have the time to fit it in right now.

But for right now, I'd say eHow is totally paying off. I'm going to expand my writing subjects and see what happens then. I'm hoping to double my earnings for the month of November. Lots of writing, promoting, and back linking to work on.
