Programs that pay you to post online

There are many websites that pay you to post content. Some of them pay people for participating in online discussions at discussion forums or for blogging. Others pay you to post articles, reviews or summaries. The concept is simple. The more unique content you have at a website, more pages will be indexed in search engines. This translates to more visitors and thereby more revenue to the website owners. They then share this revenue with posters and writers. Following are a few websites where you can get paid to post.

Mylot
Mylot is a new website that offers to pay people for participating in online discussions. They calculate your earnings based on a proprietary model to reward your discussion activity. They aim to reward useful responses and relevant discussions. It is working out really well and already a lot of people have been paid by mylot. They pay by paypal and e-Gold.

Shvoong
Shvoong is a multi-language abstracts writing site with a goal to enable any reader to quickly navigate through long texts. You can submit abstracts on books, scientific articles and press abstracts. The Abstracts are written by guest users, who enjoy royalties for their work. You can also translate abstracts to different languages. The site's profits are from advertising. The site managers distribute 10% of the profits to the abstract-writers on whose abstract pages advertisement links were clicked on by random surfers. In addition, anyone translating an abstract to another language will receive 5%, according to the same principle. Payment is by paypal (minimum $10) or cheque. Though it is more difficult than mylot, if you are a good writer, the potential earnings are more.

Revenue Sharing Forums
Another example for getting paid to post is to make use of the adsense revenue sharing forums. These are online discussion forums which share revenue from Google's adsense program with you. Typically, for threads started by you, adsense ads using your id is displayed 50% of the time. If such ads result in clicks, you will get credited. For this, you need to enter your adsense publisher id in your profile. You need to have a minimum number of posts and days of membership at the forum before you can enter your id. To join Google Adsense, you need to have your own quality content based website or blog. Once you apply google staff will visit your site and approve you if everything is OK.

However, most people will find that earnings from such revenue sharing forums are not very good unless you can generate many interesting discussions. Discussion forums offering adsense revenue sharing include Digitalpoint forum, Webmaster-talk and Namepros forum, There are also ad revenue sharing article submission sites and blogs like http://sodoityourself.com/.
