		<description>@Jeffreyweee, Sometimes eHow lags as far as article views and even with earnings too. Don&#039;t worry about it, they usually do a good job of catching up.</description>

		<description>Hey,

I have been really curious about eHow, and even signed up as a member. However, I quickly lost steam because I found out only U.S citizens can make money off the site, and I am Canadian. So, I tried this brand new site www.factoidz.com. It&#039;s very similar to eHow but has only been around for about a month. That&#039;s what worries me about it; the newness. At least eHow is established. However, I wrote the requisite 3 articles when I first began on the site, and then let them simmer. I checked my adsense earnings after a week, and they were already at just over 4 dollars at the end of the week. Now I&#039;ve written about 20 articles, and I&#039;m at 15 dollars, in about 3 weeks.

Anyways, it&#039;s really interesting to hear about your eHow experience. I&#039;m disappointed I couldn&#039;t check it out myself! Good luck, I&#039;m going to subscribe to your blog in a reader. :)

		<description>Not to brag, but I got $3.15 in the first 5 days of signing up for ehow, and I hit the magical $10 mark in three weeks! This is the most passive way to make money I have I tried.  It really helps to write timely articles.</description>

		<description>Hi Sarah,

Not Pat here but, yes, what you&#039;re proposing can definitely be done. It&#039;s a great reason to write for eHow.

Good luck!

		<description>Pat,

I really appreciate that we can follow your progress with eHow.  I checked it out more last week after your first post about it and it definitely seems intriguing.  Question for you: I realize you can&#039;t use HTML or link to your website *within* your actual how-to article, but can you list your blog as one of those &#039;further resources&#039; if for example, you are writing a condensed version for eHow of a larger article you wrote on your own blog?  I was thinking that perhaps it might be a good way to get going on eHow...write summaries of your own how-to blog posts to not only drive traffic to your blog, but also save time (you only have to condense your article, not write a completely new one).  Can this be done?  Hopefully I am making sense.  In any case, congrats with your progress so far.

		<description>Great work, Pat. You are really on a roll. I am just a little over four months into my journey at eHow and I can tell you that time is really important. It seems to take a couple of months for my articles to begin to &quot;settle in&quot; with Google. And I agree with you that it would be helpful to know where our traffic comes from but I feel fairly confident that the vast majority of it comes from search engines. That&#039;s the beauty of eHow, in my opinion.

I&#039;ll be following your experiences closely so I love the frequent updates!</description>
