Things are slowing down for me at readbud. Is this the case with you,too? I noticed that my earning with them have dropped from a dollar a day to maybe just 50 cents. This is becuase there seems to be less articles to read...o gosh, is it a writer's strike on readbud??! :) Anyway, was just wondering if anyone has "cashed out" yet. I am up to about $34, but can't cash out until I earn $50. I should be at $45 because I started on 1st of April and was earning one dollar daily. Maybe it is too popular now?

yeah-I go to the dentist tomorrow for a cleaning and checkup. Fifty smackeroos sure could help! My bill is gonna be $90 for the checkup and cleaning. And that's with my discount.

$50 minimum to get paid? don't you think that is a long way to go before you get paid?

Hi neildc. I have a link under my profile that takes you to the sign up page. There is also a video on that page that explains it all. O, wait, I think I am confusing the video with youdata. I used to have youdata featured but switched it to readbud since you make more money with them. Readbud is not like mylot. You fill out a form that list 50 different interests. Then, they send articles with those interests to u when you log on daily. The longer the article, the more you make. You can see it get added to your balance right away. There are also videos on youtube as well. You rate the article with as many as 5 stars. You cannot cash out 'till $50 is met.

keep going, i am at to $5-6 dollars. The articles are pretty good! It's not like you are forced to read stuff you dont want to. It's really a great waste of time

I started maybe 28 days later and I'm at about $15, slightly less than $1 a day. I can see them slowing down when you're near $50.
Here are some of my ideas on using the site - do you change your interests to 50 new ones every so often? That should generate more articles. Even if the topic does not interest you, scan it anyways.
Another idea is to copy and paste their articles, change a few words around, rewrite it, then use them as your own articles or posts for your own blog.

I also change my interests whenever I have nothing to read and rate then I logout and login after some time and find new articles waiting for me :)
Though when it comes to spinning articles found there... hmmm
That's clever tremendous machine ^_^ at least you got something out of your readbud experience if ever they turned out to be a scam.

I have been for more than a month in Readbud, and even if at first I could get a dollar a day, lately I get at most two articles a day. I heard that a lot, about many people like me that when they are getting nearer the payout they start earning less.
I would really like to se a real proof of payment of this website.

yes it sounds strange as site!!i am a member too but i did not reach the payout because i am near 30$ now..yes in reality in last period earnings should be a little bit less than in the past..this can be because articles are less or may be because you are quite near to the payout or may be because they want pay?mmhi think till somebody can reach and request the 50$ nobody knows also because there are not much informations in the net!

I have reached $27 and i just get paid daily $0.50 and it is going to get very long till i reach $50.If anyone had got payment than please post it so that we should continue to be in readbud but if some has requested cash out and didn't received than inform us so that we all should stop this.

Its been the same with few of my friends too ---seems they're making 10 cents each day---he had $45 there now and its going to take months now to accumulate those $5 to reach the payout.I'm skeptical about this site though---hope they turn out to be legit as it gained a lot of popularity.great day.
