eHow Experience: Day 3 - Repeat Type Articles

I'm completely shocked that eHow hasn't taken down my repeat type articles (described in the Day 2 post).

I'm cautiously pessimistic that maybe the eHow website isn't monitored as closely on the weekends (today is Sunday) and that once the workweek starts these articles will be flagged and removed.

If after another day the eHow team hasn't said anything to me about my articles I'll take that as a green light that I can fully take advantage of this article posting loophole of sorts. It seems to me that I won't make money unless eHow makes money so everyone wins. Maybe they see this as a win-win-win situation as I described it at the end of my Day 2 post.

I started the day at 496 article views, and 60 cents in earnings. I published an article about making Valentine's Day cards that got 142 views in one day (seems like a lot to me) but it only made seven cents. It's better than earning zero cents, but the interesting thing here is that I'm starting to learn about the seemingly unpredictable correlation between eHow views and real world dollar earnings.

Maybe as I spend more time on the eHow site and get a chance to see more statistics I'll learn more about the correlation.

Another interesting thing worth mentioning with the Valentine's Day card article is that it could be beneficial to understand how worthwhile it is to spend time on holiday or seasonal type postings.

I'm ending the day with 39 articles. That's seven new eHow articles and I'm proud to report that none of them are repeat type articles.
