Its depressing when you spend so much time writing and the end results are just pennies.
Writing can be a wonderful experience but making so little doing it can be a drag. Writer’s want to feel appreciate and shown that they are worthy. Getting paid just pennies can make anyone feel like they are not doing such a good job. If sites continue to pay their writer’s pennies, the writer’s may look else where. Let’s face writing sites needs us and we may need them too. Making such low wages can be depressing. No one wants to work for pennies. They want to be shown that they are appreciated. An increase wouldn’t hurt it surely will keep the writer’s on your site.
Some people maybe reluctant to join if they feel that the site is gone to pay them pennies. many may feel that its just not worth it. Writing is a joyous experience but one wouldn’t mind making some cash while doing so. I’m sure there are many complaints about the low wages. I understand that writing is not a 9-5 job but come on we want to make more than this. If you wrote fifty articles would you want to earn a few cents? I’m sure you wouldn’t mind getting an increase. Maybe soon Triond would realize that we deserve a little bit more. Those who say that we are getting what we deserve couldn’t possibly believe what they are saying.
If you want sound writer’s than cough up some more cents. People are taking there time writing and researching information for their articles. Doesn’t it mean something that we are dedicated? Just take some time out and review some of the work and I’m sure triond would realize that writer’s deserve much more. I wouldn’t suggest stop writing but I would suggest continuing to scream and shout for more pay.

so, maybe you must change your strategy..
don`t put the earning as your first goal here

I agree that the pay is ridiculously low… where do we shout? Who do we shout to?

Homework for Triond management

So very true..writing is not an easy thing , our brain bleeds but since its our passion its okay..but it would have been better if they will pay bit high not that we will be writing 11 million , commenting one million then will get only 1 dollar , and Triond earned big amount from our sweat ..where is justice there..?
But i guess no matter how we shout here ,think they don’t give a damn..theyre not reading our comments..
anyways let write for ourselves for friends..

I know how you feel there, and it doesn’t seem to improve the longer you are here. The positive thing is the adsense – without that I would not be here.

It is frustrating, but it’s even sadder to see that there’s no improvement in payment on other websites, either {sigh}. It seems there’s no appreciation for a writer’s work.

To err is human. Trion’ds traffic and earnings dropped, it’s okay. But Triond does not bother to identify its mistakes and correct them. It shows they are not interested in their earnings and the members’ earnings, which is not good for a writing site.
Triond may not survive long if this continues…. sad;

It’s not helped by the fact that so much of what is posted here is complete crud and there doesn’t seem to be a proper system in place to stop it. If all the articles published were of a high quality and decent content then perhaps earnings may rise, but when they are also paying for I don’t know how much utter spam, auto-translated stuff and pages which have no real content then this can’t happen.

I understand what your saying also secre22 has an excellent point. Unfortunately triond has gotten a reputation that is not the most stellar. At one point one writer wrote his name like 55 times just to show that it would still get published. We had a few laughs, but in reality not funny.

I am with you but I doubt the situation will ever change. But hope can keep us alive.

Guys what about Wisegeek.com, Brighthub.com and About.com? If Paypal was fully functional in my country I would certainly go after those. I can\’t believe that I have never really heard anyone in Triond mention those – at least not in the last few years. They reportedly pay great. They pay upfront which is both an advantage and a disadvantage but Brighthub also has the residual earnings to it as well. Check them out. They can\’t be worse.

Gloria I’m going to message you.

I wish they would give moremoney too.

I hope they would increase the earnings. It is really very low.
