Triond has announced the launch of a beta referral program, which may give it a leg up in the world of online publishing.
Triond, after a long history of publishing user’s articles online and sharing revenue, has decided to go competitive. How so? Well, ever since Triond was first launched, other online publishing sites have come into being, and have tried to make themselves more attractive to users. One of those features, recently announced to be coming to Triond last month, was the integration of Google’s ad network, Adsense. Another new feature that has a lot more people interested is the beta launch of it’s very own referral program.
How does this benefit you, the user, and Triond, the company? Well, when you refer a user, you generate 10% of everything they publish. Forever. So if you refer ten people, and the all make a hundred bucks in three months, you’ve made 100 dollars to, in the same amount of time, for only spreading your link around the internet. Now, Triond can afford to pay you this because they’re still getting half of what you make and half of what the referrals make, and the referrals don’t lose any money.
So, how do you sign up for this program? You have to email referrals@triond,com (replace the comma with a dot) and ask for a position in the beta testing. If you’re approved, they’ll send you the link and you can begin promoting it in hopes of making a few extra dollars. However, there won’t be a whole lot of spots available, so if you don’t get accepted you should wait until it becomes public.
If it becomes public. Triond stated that they were releasing the program as a test to see how it actually worked in reality. If it doesn’t turn out to do as well as they had hoped, you probably won’t see the start of the program. However, the community at Triond is fairly well rounded, and should be able to generate enough new users and revenue from this program to make it well worth Triond’s time. Until then, however, we’ll just have to wait and see.

Let’s hope it takes off. I’ve been trying to encourage some friends to join Triond as I find it’s a brilliant release valve – to lose yourself and get away from the pressures of real life and to chat with others who are following a dream to become writers. The majority probably won’t make it big time, but it’s just reassuring that there are so many like minded people who at least want to try and who are willing to support each other through thick and thin. I just hope and pray that Triond never fail as I’d be utterly lost now without it.

Sorry for the ALMOST duplication. The first version of my message came up originally with an error. Decided it was probably the apostrophes I had in there so rehashed it without them and then found that suddenly there were two messages! Talk about ghosts in the machine!
