Demand Studios Revenue Share
A number of people have been asking about Demand Studios Revenue Share program, so I thought I would share my experience here.
I wrote 84 fixed fee articles for DS (Demand Studios) from April 2009 to July 2009. Articles at Demand Studios pay anywhere from $5.00 and up with an average of $15.00. All of the articles I wrote paid $15.00 with the exception of one which paid $20.00. My payout for the articles $1280.00.
During the same period of time (April 2009 to July 2009) I wrote 43 Demand Studios Revenue Share articles. The first month I had just a few articles and my payout was $3.44. By the second month this climbed to $15.41. In May 2010 my payout was $44.36. Overall not factoring in the $5.00 bonus per article they gave at the time, my total earnings for Demand Studios Revenue Share articles has worked out to $9.20 per article.
At the time I wrote the articles they had a five year cap on payout, which has since been lifted. The payout for Rev. share articles is now lifetime. So as you can clearly see I will soon surpass the average payout of $15 per article and continue to make money on them.

I highly recommend Writer Gig, Maria O’Brian’s ebook on writing for residual income. Though the book is focused on eHow which has since migrated to another platform, the methodology can be applied to any pay per click content site including Infobarrel, Xomba and Hubpages. I read Maria’s book when I started writing for pay per click content sites. Maria’s method taught me a lot about how to write for the search engines. And thanks to the ebook (and working consistently) I have made thousands writing for pay per click content site. Her book set me on the right track and it can help you also.

Why settle for a few dollars an article when you can earn hundreds. My top earning article at eHow has made over $600. (Click Here to See Most Recent Update) Many of my other articles have earned hundreds also. This is for articles that are around 500 words and took under an hour to write.
eHow is a site that shares “How to’s”. All material written for eHow should include directions on how to do something and be broken down into steps. Each step should have an action that the reader takes to accomplish the “How To.”
Though eHow is secretive about the exact method of paying writers, it appears to be directly related to the Adsense clicks on the ads around the article. eHow pays once a month with the minimum payout at $10.00. Write a few articles and you can collect on them for years. eHow is a great place for residual income!
I started writing for eHow the last week of August ’08. At the end of September, I made my first payout of $13.00. In October, my earnings climbed to just under $100. By November I was right at $250. For the past few months I have been averaging several hundred dollars of residual income from my 250+ articles. Based on other writers experiences this should continue to grow.
To be successful on eHow it is essential to write with the search engines in mind so you will get alot of views and potentially a lot of clicks. Select topic that are “Hot” using Yahoo Buzz, Google Trends, and eBay Pulse. Some of the more profitable topics on eHow seem to be ones on weight loss, beauty, finances and making money, and computer related issues. Recipes normally do not earn alot. When considering topics, do a search on them, to see if there is an interest. See my post on selecting “Hot Topics”
When I started writing for eHow, I read Writer Gig’s ebook. Writer Gig won eHow’s Award for earning the most money on eHow. At one time she reported eHow earnings of close to $2,000 in a month. She routinely earns over $1,000 a month from eHow (and this is all residual income). Her eBook has helped many increase their earnings substantially, because she teaches you step by step, how to select a topic and how to write the article for maximum exposure and income. It is a time saver and one of the most important tools, I used to increase my eHow income. I cannot emphasize enough how the small investment in Writer Gig’s ebook will save you hours of time and put you on the path to earning $.
