Wow, was I ever excited when I hit the milestone of making my first dollar of money on eHow earnings! I know that a dollar won't buy you much. But the thing is, it showed me that whether I write or not, I will make something on eHow. Of course for me, I'm not going to just stop writing. I love to write. Plus, I like money. I won't be famous. Probably many won't even see this blog about eHow. But to me, it's part of an adventure and very exciting.
Several of my articles earned me my first eHow dollar. No one article had made it to a dollar on its own yet.

eHow Break and Research
While I was excited about eHow and writing articles, I took a short break and didn't submit anything for a couple of days. I wanted to see how my earnings would do. I also wanted to learn more.
I ended up finding a few really good resources for writing on eHow, using SEO and using inbound links for my eHow articles. I spent my couple days break reading up on that information and freelance writing for my other writing ventures. I wasn't so thrilled to be doing the other freelance writing. My eight cents of money on my eHow account was teasing and taunting me of the potential I might make on eHow.
Now, that my earnings are still rising on eHow, I know I can make money at this. I feel very confident. My dream is to give up all my other freelance writing work at home jobs and focus on eHow completely. But, I must wait since the bill collectors won't take too kindly to me not having any money upfront to pay them.

eHow Third Day Earnings, I Made eHow Money
Much to my surprise and delight, on my third day of logging into my eHow account to submit more articles, I had actually earned money! I was in shock. I was in happy shock. I had heard that to see any earnings on eHow, you needed your articles to be at least a month old.
I posted my eHow articles on my Facebook page and put a link in my signature on my email. I am guessing those inbound links were how people found my first articles on eHow to be able to get any money at all.
How much was my first earnings? It was for eight cents! I know that's not much at all. I wasn't expecting anything so it was a milestone to see my first eHow earnings. My second day of freelance writing for eHow, I only wrote 3 more articles.
What really came as a surprised to me was the article that earned my first eHow earnings money was from that batch on the second day! I thought for sure my article on the AVI files would make the first money for me on eHow.

eHow -- My First Day
I began writing articles for eHow on April 3, 2009. Now, mind you I had studied carefully a lot of information before I began to even compose my first article on eHow. I wanted to learn more about it. Each site that I've done freelance writing for has different requirements. Having been rejected by Demand Studios, I was nervous that anything I put up on eHow would make it or even begin to see any money.
On the first day, I put up:
How to Get Rid of Microwave Odors with Coffee Grinds
I did this one because I knew all about the topic. I figured it would give me a chance to get a feel for the eHow templates and submission process. I was very excited to have this as my first eHow article.
That day I also put up
How to Convert an AVI Files to DVD Movies article. Then that was it for my first day on eHow.
I read the forums some and tried to learn more about eHow to see if this was really going to be a freelance writing option for me. The template was fairly easy to use to submit my article to eHow. I even created a template in MS Word to use strictly for my eHow articles.
I spent the first day also creating a folder and subfolder to back up my eHow articles. There was a lot of talk on the forum boards about articles being deleted from eHow. This made me very nervous. Backing up my eHow articles was important to me.

How to Kill Page View Money with Comment Groups
This article on page view money and comment groups for keyword density for freelance work from home jobs is published for page view money only. Do the author a favor and send the link to your friends and family members that freelance work from home. Also, don’t forget to visit the resource link to learn more about how to increase your SEO and keyword density when you are lucky to receive a bunch of comments. You can also see some of my other eHow articles at the bottom of this post as well.
Making page view money requires you have an online account. You can work from home for money. You submit content that will be viewed by your friends, family members and others that are giving you return comments. This is a great way to make money from home. Or is it? Can you really make a decent amount of money in page view money by comments? After quite a bit of research, I learned something very important that others in the freelance work from home world might not share with you. What is this big secret that others don’t want you to know?
Search Engine Spiders Crawl Your Comments for Keyword Density
The comments of your online freelance articles that make you money are indexed as part of your page by the search engines. This means that when the search engine spiders are crawling away over the words on your article, guess what? They’re also crawling over all those cute little comments we make to one another. So if my article is on money and freelance writing but I have a bunch of comments saying good job – you guessed it! My keyword density is going to change. My keywords might even change!
Comments Can Change Keyword Density and Page View Money
For example, let’s say I wrote a really hilarious take on how to work from home. My keyword was work, work from home and money. However, the way I presented it was just too funny. Then I have worked hard and gotten lots of fans to leave me comments. After all, this is the way I’ll know they dropped by to help me earn page view money. They all put a smiley face or write comments such as funny, hilarious, cute and so forth. You guessed it! My keywords now are no longer related to making money and work from home. They’ve changed to humor. The spiders of the search engines have no idea that I was writing about work from home jobs and freelance work. They think I was writing about fun and humor.
Do All Those Visitors Help Your Page View Money?
That is a question about page view money and work from home passive income I’ve been asking myself over and over. If you get paid 2 bucks for 1,000 page views (assuming you’re clout 10) how long will it take you to write out 1,000 comments? Furthermore, you only earn two bucks for that amount of time. Are you really working from home to make page view money wisely?
If you can get articles that are SEO and have the right keyword combinations, your goal will be to have the primary visitors come from the search engines. This is true for blog writing, adsense money, affiliate money and other money from your freelance work from home work. If you’re going to make a career of writing, the masses need to view your work. Can you truly generate the masses with comment groups?
Is there a solution to fixing your page view money while receiving fun and cool comments?
Absolutely! I added in the resources a great how to article that you can visit for the answer to this question.
I Vow to Try and Do Better
Now, that I know this and I love to comment, I vow to try and do better. I will try to use the keyword from your title in my comment to help keep your keyword density good for you to make even larger amounts of page view money from freelance writing work at home jobs.

My Online Earnings Summary Part 1
With the recession, I’ve found I’d had to bump up my efforts to earn money freelance writing online. It seems that there is more effort need to earn money freelance writing then even as early as the beginning of the year. My suspicions are that it is primarily the economy. More companies are outsourcing their freelance writing work to writers that will charge less. Others are hiring one good editor and then paying bulk prices per word and accepting lower quality freelance writing. This of course, makes it hard on others that earn money freelance writing online.
I am one of those freelance writers that needs money now to be able to pay the current bills. I need money now to restock the cabinets and refrigerator shelves. Being able to make money online is the only way that I work. I had been job hunting earlier in the year for a more traditional job. However, the jobs simply aren’t out there.
Here are some weird things that I found with my freelance writing online this year. Let’s look at the sites that I normally do freelance writing for and see my results. It really makes you have to ask are some of these avenues worth the continued time and effort.
Demand Studios: I applied for a writing position and was politely rejected. They pay $5 and $15 an article with a maximum of 10 in your queue at a time. A new writer will probably have to wait around a week to get work reviewed. Therefore, at Demand Studios, a new writer can expect to make around $20 a day.
eHow: eHow seems to pay strictly on the number of ads clicked from the articles that you post. I’ve just started experimenting with eHow. To be honest, the eHow earnings is what made me decide to write this page view only article and share my journey with making money with freelance writing online. I will report on the first week with eHow. I wrote 44 articles for eHow during the first week of joining. I am averaging 12 cents a day from that first week. If you look at my Helium, Bukisa and Associated Content volume of articles and average daily earnings, I will have to say that eHow is going to be the biggest and best investment for writing time to get money from online freelance writing. Bukisa is would be my second highest earner with Associated Content coming in third.
Increase eHow earnings: I should submit higher volume on eHow using the insider tricks that I learned to generate the appropriate ads. There really isn’t a need to worry about socializing, networking or even advertising articles on eHow. The site is so huge and big on the search engines that with SEO’ed articles that are around 300 words long, you can be pretty much guaranteed money. The trick seems to be the older your articles, the more they start making you per day.
Helium: I have been a member of Helium for almost 3 years. I have up 457 articles on the website. They pay by page views and ad revenue. I don’t know their secret formula. My earnings on Helium average 45 cents a day. That’s not so hot if you really think about it. You must maintain rating stars and be active to receive your payout. You must reach $25 to get a payout. However, I didn’t know about SEO and all of that when I started writing at Helium. Perhaps that knowledge would’ve earned me more on Helium?
Increase Earnings on Helium: I could increase my earnings on Helium if I rated their articles more. I should also network with the others on the Helium site more and participate in the forum. When I was doing this, in the beginning years, my daily average was around $2 to $3 a day.
Bukisa: I joined Bukisa back near the first of the year. I thought it would be a great place to put non-exclusive articles that I wrote on Helium and write for Associated Content. Now, with Bukisa I haven’t had the time to copy and paste all my non-exclusive work for AC over to there. I expect my earnings will triple per day when I complete that task. On Bukisa, I’m average 27 cents a day with 135 articles. This is a BIG difference from Helium with over 400 articles. Bukisa pays strictly on number of unique page views per 24 hours. The minimum payout is $10.
Increase Earnings on Bukisa: Bukisa, I’ve noticed that my older articles generate quite a bit more income than my newer articles. This tells me, like other sites, it’s imperative to submit daily to Bukisa new content to give the other articles time to age. I also don’t have many friends or comment very often on Bukisa. I’m sure reciprocal page views would increase earnings there quite a bit too.
Associated Content: On AC, I currently have just over 2,000 articles published. I have lots of fans. I comment at least three days a week. I do all the social networking and so forth on Associated Content. My daily earnings for AC is highest of all the freelance writing sites. I average $18 a day from Associated Content so far submitted. However, if you compare the other websites and AC, I would suspect that this amount per day should be significantly higher. This is taking into account the upfront payments and page views combined. After all, I’m comparing daily earnings with amount of freelance writing work. I noticed no increase in upfront payment with page views accumulated, so it’s almost pointless at this time to increase promotion, commenting and so forth to hope for a larger upfront payment to make more on average per day.
Increase earnings on AC: I should write more volume. Although, many of my regular fans say they don’t know how I could submit at much higher volume than I currently do on AC. I could comment more and I could promote more. But for $18 a day, is it really going to increase the amount of earnings and be worth it?
NinerNiner: NinerNiner is a blogging website that pays roughly 50 cents per 200 word post. I write as a dedicated blogger there. But I only average around $1 a day with ad revenue sharing and upfront money for posting.
My Conclusions from this Freelance Writing Analysis:
I should focus my need for immediate money on Associated Content. After all there is a monthly page view bonus money and upfront money when I submit articles for payment. My second priority should be to build a very large library of eHow articles that can start getting age on them. Then my third priority should be Bukisa since the increased daily earnings are proportional to volume as well. The other sites, I should just take the passive income and not worry about them since I have the primary sites that will give me the most return on my money and my time for online freelance writing gigs.
There are lots of places that you can write for, such as online magazines, but if you’re not able to wait long periods or not lucky enough to land these freelance writing gigs, then hopefully some of this information has helped you.

Using Eggshells in Gardening
I've been really excited about gardening lately. The weather is so nice. I just love April. I get really tempted to plant a garden too early this time of year. But, I did go ahead and start some seedlings for the garden. They're all over my kitchen. One thing I learned about for gardening was using eggshells in gardening. There are so many great ways to recycle eggshells in gardening around the house. I just love it.
Many people are starting to realize that you can go green at home by recycling everyday stuff that you use. So, instead of frying up eggs in the morning and tossing the eggshells, you can just recycle them in your gardening. What a great idea!
You're probably wondering how you go about using those eggshells in your gardening. Well, it's really easy. I mean simple easy to do for your gardening.
