Hi Pat – great post on eHow. I’ve been recently thinking about writing articles for passive income but found that eHow is now run by Demand Studios. For most assignments, they offer a one-off payment of $7.50 – $15. Do you think its still a worthwhile venture since there is no hope for recurrent income, regardless of traffic?

Hey Pat,

So for awhile now I have been reading your income reports and somehow skipping over your eHow earnings. Possibly because they were relatively small compared to your other sources of income…not sure exactly. But I have recently started an eHow account and I am already up to 40 articles. I actually just purchased Maria’s e-book (and gave you some affiliate love) so hopefully I will see my earnings start to increase. I am only at $2.78 right now (after 2 weeks) but I know that that number will increase dramatically in the future. My goal is to write 20 articles per week. So we’ll see how far I get. But I wanted to say that reading through all of your eHow articles has been very inspirational. Between your posts, and Maria’s e-book, I should be well on my way to earning a tidy little side income. Thanks again as always!

On a side note Pat, I just wanted to say that I use Market Samurai all the time and its by far the most effective keyword research, analysis, and tracking tool I’ve ever used. Thanks for the tips

Hello Pat,

Thanks for your article. Alas, Ehow payments are not available for non-US citizens. Do you know an Ehow equivalent that perhaps is more tolerant on this topic ?

lol……I had initially posted that on August 27th….

After reading some horrible horrible reports from people loosing upwards of 30+ articles in their infamous “article sweeps”, I actually decided to remove all 150+ of my eHow articles, in mass…..

….I didn’t feel comfortable, at all, exerting more effort on eHow…..I immediately moved all my articles over to a different website platform……

….If I’m not mistaken, Pat had an article or two deleted, as well……

Hi Pat

Great article. Unfortunately the “Writer Compensation Programme” is only available to users in the US, so international readers be aware of this.

This is very disappointing for me (I’m not American and have never been to the States), as I was all set to emmulate your feat and write 100-200 articles this month, and was looking forward to an additional $100 flowing in per month.

Guess I’ll just have to look at other sources of Passive Income!

Cheers

….I actually read a post about a longterm eHow user who had upwards of 60+ articles deleted!….as much as I love eHow, sometimes I’m a little cautious about committing myself to the platform, at least until they expand their article submission guidelines…..it’s the people that say that their articles were deleted for a few simple misspellings, or for starting one of their “steps” out with an article like “I”, rather than an actionable verb, that has me truly concerned about proceeding….

Hey Pat, have you ever had an article deleted on eHow? Occasionally, I stop by the eHow forums, and it’s been really disheartening to see how some long term users, who have produced quite a few quality articles have had articles deleted during their ‘article sweeps’….

…I haven’t had any deleted yet, however, on the surface, it does appear like their article submission guidelines could use a little work/clarity….
