100 Views on Triond
First Step
Well today is a very nice day, because I finally managed to reach 100 daily views of my articles. It's nothing extraordinary and, yes I know, there are people who have 10 000 daily views. But it's still a great step further for me. And you know how they say - every great journey starts with the first step.
Tips to First Success
I bet you're wondering why the hell I'm saying this to you. And the answer is very simple. I know there are many people who are still struggling to get more views to their sites or articles, thus I would like to share my experience and tips. I sincerely hope these tips will help you.
Tip Nr. 1 - Be an Active Community Member
The most important tip, no matter what content you are sharing, is to communicate to the community. I am a member of Triond for about 2 - 3 months, and I can tell you from my experience, that being friendly with the community really boosted my content views. I spent my first month writing many articles and not communicating with other members of Triond at all. And as you can guess, 10 views were the best thing I could get. However, during the second and third month I was active - commented other articles, sent a lot of friend invitations, created a blog and chatted with the community members. And, I have to admit, I really started believing that 1000 views or even 10000 views are possible, because my content views were steadily increasing. So my tip to you is - be an active community member. It doesn't matter if you're writing a blog, or writing articles at Triond or Bukisa, it is a very important thing. A great idea is to write 3 comments daily, read 3 articles daily and find new 3 friends daily. You can find more similar tips at my article Rule 333 - How to Promote Your Articles, which you can find here (Link).
Tip Nr. 2 - Create Unique Content
My most popular article (Link) got me many views, because it was a relatively unique article. What I mean by that, is that you have to create unique content, because people appreciate that. So be sure to check Google, before submitting your content, to find out if it is unique enough to be interesting and refreshing. Believe me, your views will be increased rapidly.
Tip Nr. 3 - Smart Tags
In order to get more views, you need to write down suitable tags to attract more visitors. A best way to find out which tags are popular you can use a simple tool, which is very useful to me,- Google AdWords tool (Link).
Tip Nr. 4 - Never Give Up!
The is the most vital rule. If you want to succeed, just don't give up. I know that at the beginning, especially at freelance writing websites like Triond or Bukisa, it is very hard to keep writing. However, now after 3 months at Triond, I can say to you - things get better. So keep it up and good luck!
Triond Status update:
Current monthly earnings - 1.76$ ( yeah I know it's not much, but things are getting better every moth).
Current daily earnings - 6 - 10 cents ( not that bad, though my goal until the end of the summer is 1$ daily earnings).
Feel free to share your current earnings or overall experience.

A Review of Neobux
So firstly I would like to review one the most famous internet PTC sites - Neobux. I would like to review this site, because it was the first site that brought me to, let us say, internet marketing. It's important to notice that now I do not use Neobux anymore for a variety of reasons that I will state later.
What is Neobux?
Neobux is one of the most famous PTC sites. A PTC site or, more simply, paid to click site is a website, that pays you money for clicking and viewing advertisements. It is as easy as that - you click an add, you view it for a certain amount of time and voila - you get a cent. I bet you are already interested in these types of websites, but please wait a minute, there are both advantages and disadvantages of these sites.
Advantages
1) It is easy to use. Even a child can understand the simple site layout of Neobux. It contains a dashboard with all your statistics and other useful tools, which will help you manage your account.
2) It is not time consuming. You can click up to 4 - 5 adds daily, and it only takes about 1 - 2 minutes daily. So I guess it is the best site for those people, who do not have enough time to, let us say, write articles.
3) Later you can rent some referrals - guys, who will click adds and share some revenue with you.
4) It pays out money via check or Paypal.
Disadvantages
1) It does not pay a lot of money. As I mentioned earlier, you can click 4 - 5 adds daily, which means that you can get 4 - 5 cents daily.
2) Referrals do a very bad job. Most of the time referrals do a lazy job and only click 1 - 2 adds. You are lucky if you can find a referral, who will click all 4 - 5 adds.
3) You have to pay money to change your lazy referrals. It costs 7 cents, which actually kills the purpose of having referrals, because you will have to change them really often.
4) Your rented referrals will last only 30 days, then you will have to buy new ones, or pay for your old referrals once again.
My Personal Experience
I stopped using Neobux mostly due to the bad referrals. I remember, I had about 12 referrals, only two of which clicked adds daily. The fact that I had to pay 0.07$ to change my referrals really killed my interest in this site, because new referrals most of the time didn't clicked enough adds to gain me my 0.07$ back. After more than 3 months I was not able to gain more than 1 dollar because of the lazy referrals. Another major drawback for me was the golden membership. Basically you pay 90$ for a 1 year membership and you get double money for every add you click and double earnings from your referrals. However, after simple calculations, you can easily realize that golden membership won't pay off, unless you had a lot of referrals.
Conlusion
Neobux is a nice site if you need a couple of almost free quarters, but if you want to get more money you should choose other sites, like article writing sites. Also be aware, that many PTC sites are scam, so if you are still interested in such sites, be sure to find a pay proof of those sites on Google.
Neobux score - 5/10
