eHow Experience: Introduction

eHow was a word that I'd never heard before 2009.

eHow changed my life before the year was half over.

Here's how it happened ...

If you're new to eHow.com this website should save you (at least) a month of your life and more importantly help you start making much more money much sooner.

If you'd like to save (at least) a year of your life take a look at The Formula that summarizes what I've learned over the past year with regards to making money online. (Don't worry it won't ruin the ending to the eHow story.)

I can only imagine how much further along I would be right now if I would have had the benefit of coming across a resource like this when I first started on eHow.

To see what I mean take a look at what eHow members are saying about this site. The column to the left is filled with completely unsolicited honest testimonials that I received within the first week of launching this site.

If you're already an experienced eHow writer you'll probably still find some useful information on this website that will save you time and help make you more money. You may also find it interesting to compare your first month on eHow with mine.

Thank you for finding this website and I hope you find it helpful. I encourage you to use the Table of Contents on the right side of the screen (scroll down a little bit) and to follow the story in chronological order.

Feel free to become a Follower of this website (scroll down to the right) and/or post comments as often as you'd like.

If you're pressed for time I suggest reading the eHow Experience Key Dates articles that are listed to the right (scroll up a little).

eHow Experience: Summary

I'm looking for ways to make money from home and that basically means looking for ways to make money on the internet.

I know this is easier said than done, but what would really be optimal would be to find something that gives me an opportunity to make some residual income (like a website).

Recently I discovered eHow.com and I'm very optimistic that I can make a fair amount of money with this website. The basic idea is that anyone can write helpful and creative articles (in an easy to use step-by-step format) and then a portion of the ad revenue eHow generates from visitors is returned to you as money in your pocket.

Some people are reportedly making over $1,500 a month in passive income from articles that they wrote long ago on eHow.

I've read a lot of the success stories and my initial thought is: If they can do it, then hopefully so can I.

Factors that seem important for being successful on eHow:

• Consistently writing eHow articles (daily)
  
• Having realistic expectations and being patient
  
• Being able to think of effective topics
  

I'm chronicling my daily experiences on eHow during my first month.
