Another ridiculous experience in Triond

Sometimes I really feel like killing those Triond staff. Today I submit an article about investment in human capital. Since human capital is the latest name for human resource management, I select Bizcovering. Guess where the article goes to? It lands in Nigeria! The Triond employee parks it under Trifer, Africa and Nigeria! I wonder what has Nigeria got to do with human resource management. Human capital management and study definitely does not originate from Nigeria. Nobody will send their HR managers and executives to Nigeria to learn about human capital management.

Well, I am not surprised, their automated so called editorial is lame. You can request a relocation though.

Hi Alwayszzcitra, I have requested for a transfer. Seem so stupid in the first place. If they have parked the article in the right category, then I do not have to request for a transfer at all. All the extra work for nothing!

Request a relocation. I've had to do that to some of my articles, and it's really annoying, but I always try to make sure they go in the correct category.

It has been quite some time that I have submitted any content to Triond, due to the fact that my time management is very precious. I will say that Triond is not the only site that sends a writer articles to many other countries, you would actually be surprised at how many sites do what you have experienced with Triond.

Hi Powermannx, I do not submit articles to Triond anymore. The page views and earning have both dropped drastically, and the management does not bother to do anything to clean the sites up. I think they should have some kind of quality control, so that good writers will stay, and bad writers do not make so much money from the lousy articles.

Hi scheng, Quality Control is one of those oxy morons or morons running quality control. It's like those signs that say MEN WORKING along the roads in the US. Usually there are 5 men and only one of them is working. Should say men loitering and man working. HAHA. Anyway, I haven't been on triond but once or twice back in 2007 or 2008. I think I only have a couple articles there, if that. I never thought they paid well. Of course, that was when associated content was my favorite website in the whole world. Triond still sends me messages and I make about a dollar a year from them. Like I said it was only one or two articles. Good luck trying to get your article moved through Triond. I'm sure that will take a while.

I think you need to check with the administration and why do you think it is not possible to send HR managers and Executives to Nigeria. I don't see anything wrong with that. We have educated people all over the world. Why so negative about others anwyway.

Hi Mashnn, I mean nobody will send their people to Nigeria for management seminar or course upgrading. Even governments send their scholars to colleges in UK, US and now, China. Have you ever heard of any government sending scholars to Nigeria to take up Master or Bachelor in Business course? It is all right to travel there for holiday, if you like the experience, and you can withstand the weather. But no organization will pick this country for educational purpose.

I don't get it. Why not?. Have you ever worked outside your country then you would argue that way. There is always exchange programmes going on everywhere in the world. Managers need to know how other people run their companies inorder to intergrate in their own companies. Every company no matter where it is has it way of getting things done.

Hi Mashnn, I assume you have not worked with anyone from Nigeria or even know where it is! I have some experience with Nigeria, both directly and indirectly. I have worked with people from more than 20 countries around the world, including your country. There is this company located near my house. It is a very large and multinational company in the oil rigging business. It used to have an office in Nigeria handling all the shipping related transactions. But later it decided to close down the office. If you know about Nigeria, you can guess the problem. My former boss was involved in the auditing and transferring of work back to Singapore.

I'm smiling because Triond is the lowest paying site and has the most drawbacks. I am on Triond for two years now I think and did not even make a dollar a month. I made $3.06 already in two weeks with MyLot. I also recently cut Triond from my list. In the time I post an article to them which garners one cent, I could have written another comment or answer or written an article already.

Are you saying you earned $200 for two months with Triond? I have written for more than two years and have not even reached $10. MyLot and Experts Column pay nicely and I have a plan how to get $100 a month. I serve five sites. I just added Zujava. Wrote three articles for them but have not heard back yet. How much do you then earn now, and with which sites? Triond was useless with me. I have over 200 articles written in all.

Hi Scheng, the problem is that I keep worrying about finishing my book. My publisher is waiting and I am all tied up in all this extra writing. The thing is I must not do one task when I get up or I write all day for peanuts. I have about $25 if I add up ExpertsColumn, My Lot, RedGage and Bukisa. I am thinking of dropping them. I send them letters to ask where my earnings are and could they let me know and they send me a letter stating that they have opened a ticket and do I want to cancel. Duh? I want them to answer the question!
