New Start

Well a year has come and gone, and the Project 1432 continues on. The website eHow stopped their writer's program and now goes through Demand Media for their web content. This change was disruptive to my project.

The new guidelines for writing revenue share articles through Demand Media are not much different from the old eHow. The main difference is that each article you write is viewed by an editor before being submitted to the eHow site. I have to have references for every article and I cannot make changes to my articles once they are submitted.

Changes to your revenue share articles are helpful because you can add links to similar articles you have written and make updates to the information in the article. Both of these things are useful in making your content fresh to the search engines.

I have decided to continue with project 1432 in the coming 2011 writing year. I feel more comfortable with the revenue share program through Demand Media and I have also seen some initial earnings in the first article I wrote through they revenue share program.

So to start of the next stage of Project 1432 I am submitting my updated numbers:

In November I made                      $22.90 (eHow) 1.29 (Demand)
Total earnings Dec. 09 to Oct. 10  $72.21 (eHow) 1.38 (Demand)

Days left in the Project:      New start
Total Articles Written:       25 (24 on eHow and 1 on Demand)
Articles left to write:          1407 Article
Earnings to date: 2009         $ 2.25
                          2010         $ 95.53
Grand Total on eHow          $ 97.78

Ok. The first thing you will notice with these updated numbers is.... WOW my eHow articles have been earning some cash this year! The month of November my 24 article on eHow almost earned $1 each. Now I know what your thinking, $1 for an article is crazy. Why would I think that is good.

Well because that is actually my goal with this Project 1432. To earn $1 per article PER MONTH in passive income. Think about that for a second.... Wouldn't it be nice to get $1,432 every month from work you have long since completed?

So I have a renewed excitement for this project and I'm happy to be doing it through Demand Media. I am eager to learn what types of articles work best. I am excited to write some topics I am an expert in. I am also excited to write more product oriented topics and see if that helps my revenue share numbers.

I'll keep you all updated as this project continues!
