Paid to write - Bukisa

If you are a online money maker, then surely you have heard about Squidoo, Helium or Associated Content. These are sites that are paying you for writing articles and reaching a minimum of 1000 unique visits. It may seem easy to achieve at beginning, but after you have registered and posted some articles, you'll see that the number of views remains the same as yesterday...


What is Bukisa?


   It's something like HubPages, but without AdSense in it. It seems to be new on the market, so it may have problems with the traffic. I posted there today and in 3 hours I received only one unique visitor. I didn't for the making online money posts, because I thought that there are plenty of this. Right now, they pay you 3.42 for 1000 unique views. At start, it was 4 dollars per one thousand. They said that these cut off has been made due to the financial crisis. Let's hope they will increase it after the recession.

Revenue Share

 You know what's good in comparation to other sites like Bukisa? The fact that you know from start how much you will earn if peolpe will read your content. From what I saw, there are few who reach that 1000 unique views/post.

I guess this has to do with the bad traffic or with the limited number of members. Anyway, if you manage reach 10 000 with a post, you have 35$

Let's suppose you make a good work and write down 5 good posts and reach 10 000 with each one - you have around 150 dollars...But, these are just calculations. I know somebody from there who has 50 people in his network and 7 articles, and he said he earned 17 dollars in the first month. Again, working hard is the solution for gathering visits. A good thing is that they pay you once you have reached 10 $ (paypal). Also, Bukisa is open to users worldwide, and this also is a big +. 

But let's imagine a more realistic view of this Revenue Share program. Let's take Pete for example. Pete has published today 5 pieces, 5 gvery good pieces with a 500+ word average each. Each article will bring Simon 50 view a day - this means 7500-10000 views each month. Pete earns by his own, only by those articles that he posted in one day with hard work - 35 dollars. What if Pete would write each day 10 articles with a daily 10 visits each? This means 300 articles - 3000 views each day, and around 100 000 views/month -  350 dollars. You think this can be hard to achieve? Ok, we have, the realistical scenario - 35 dollars and the hard working one - 350 dollars. 

What about referrals?

Well, as on MyLot, you earn 25% of their earnings. So, we already gave those two possible scenarios - 35$ and 350$. It means - 9 dollars for the realistic scenario and 90 for the hardworking one. Also, there are 3 levels for being paid. This means that you can earn money for the friends that the friends of your friends have invited, but you'll earn less, of course. So, to make a final statement - 50$/each month is a normal earning rate at Bukis, hope it will increase after getting new members.


Important information for Publishers

Also, you can submit at Bukisa contents from other websites, with the condition that it has to be written by you. I suppose you are not allowed to do that on other similar sites. You can link your twitter account with Bukisa each time you post, rate or comment something.
