I think many of us remember Triond.
Triond was a good writing site before the scammers and spammers destroyed the site with plaglarised content.
Back in the days when Triond was paying well, I had written an old article about the income expectation from Triond.
Below is the content:
"How many times have you seen those advertisements promising that you can earn $1000 a week or a month?
If you join an online website with such expectation, you are going to get disappointed.
Even when many writers swear to you that making money on Triond is easy, that does not mean you can make $1000 a week without doing anything much.
You will find that it takes a few days to earn the first cent, never mind the first dollar or the first thousand dollars.
What is the realistic expectation of income from Triond?
You can think of the money from Triond as extra income for a cup of coffee with a cheesecake in the café.
It is enough for that in most cases.
The first step to making money here is to write articles.
You need a bulk of 500 articles before you can think about paying mortgage.
If you are completely new to article writing, with no knowledge of seo and traffic generation, you have to learn.
Spend a week in learning everything possible about seo, including on page and off page seo, and getting traffic from social networking, and other places.
Once you have a broad idea, you can start applying the knowledge in article writing, and getting readers to read your content.
The first realistic expectation is the first payout from Triond. That means just earning 50 cents in your first month here.
If you do not have Google Adsense account, you need to get one. That will triple your income.
That means for every cent that Triond pays you, you can likely to get two cents from Google Adsense account.
The easiest way to get a Google Adsense account is through Blogger. Sign up for a blog, and write about everything else except making money or getting referrals.
Once you start talking about making money or getting referrals, it is almost a guarantee that you cannot get the Adsense account approval.
That means you can write about your hair, your legs, your nails, your shoes, your cat, your dog, your bosses and all other things in life.
After your first payout from Triond, the next realistic expectation of income from Triond is to increase the rate by 50%.
That means if your first month nets you 50 cents from Triond, and a dollar from Adsense, your next month should make 75 cents from Triond, and $1.50 from Adsense. That is assuming you continue the same effort.
After a year in Triond, you can set a lofty goal of making $300 per year from Triond.
Never ever expect to make $1000 a week. That is simply impossible unless you can set up a website as successful as Triond or Helium or Associated Content.
