How To Earn Money From ehow!

Did you know that you can make money online by writing and publishing your own content for eHow? With eHow's Writer Compensation Program, users can earn money based on article performance. Best of all, every member is eligible. So if you compose a cool article that spreads across the Internet like a Paris Hilton video, you could find yourself cashing a check from eHow once a month


Instructions.1.1

Sign up for eHow's WCP--shorthand for Writer's Compensation Program. It's fast and easy. All you need is an active PayPal account and an eHow profile. Once those two prerequisites are met, click on the My Profile tab and look for a sub-heading labeled My Earnings. Once you've gone this far, the rest of the sign-up process is a cakewalk.

2.2
Educate yourself on the WCP's finer points. OK, sure, no one likes reading the small print, but eHow has put together an excellent list of common questions and answers to help get you on your way to padding your pockets. Lest you think this info is worth skipping, the FAQ tells you how and when to get paid. See Resources below for a link that gives you the lowdown.

3.3
You've enrolled in the program and read the FAQ. What's next? That is up to you and how much you want to write. Once the WCP sign-up is complete, all you need to do is publish articles. Seriously. That's it. Just write what you know (as Hemingway said) and click the publish button.

4.4
Socialize your article, send it to friends, blog about it, link to it from other pages and generally spread it around to people you know. The more popular your article (i.e. the more people who read it) the higher your eventual WCP payouts. It stands to reason that you should try to build the best audience possible for your little work of art.

5.5
Build out your profile. Add a short bio, upload a picture (or one of eHow's stock avatars), fill out your interests and start making friends in the eHow community. You might think it's unrelated, but if so, you're wrong. The numbers say that a significant portion of eHow readers click on profile links when they read an article. A more engaging user profile makes for more interested readers, and a greater likelihood that they'll return to see your stuff again. Cha-ching!
