An Easy Way To Make Money With Your Photos

As I'm sure many writers are aware, there is an online publishing site called Triond. Writers join and submit articles, then earn a monthly commission from their work. What many people aren't aware of, is that you can also submit photos, videos, and audio clips to Triond! I currently submit articles, photos, videos and audio. Of all the content I submit, my photos make the most money! Articles make more money per pageview than photos do, but I get more pageviews on my photos so they end up earning a lot more than my articles. So if you want an easy way to make money with your photographs, this is definitely a site I would recommend! They pay on the 15th of each month via PayPal, and you only need to have $0.50 in your account to receive a payout! Besides submitting photos, I like to write articles about photography as well! This site definitely provides photographers with a lot of opportunities to earn money! The way it works is that you sign up for free, and submit your work. Then your work is reviewed. The review is basically just to make sure your content is acceptable for the site (no offensive content) and to make sure you didn't just steal a photo off the internet and submit it. It can take anywhere from a few minutes to one day for your photos to be reviewed, so they get put up on the website pretty quickly. Then when they publish your photo on the web, they put advertising on the page. That is how they make their money. Then whatever money the website received from advertising on the pages with your photos, they split with you 50/50. So you make half of whatever they make with the advertising next to your photos. (Articles earn more advertising money than photos, which is why you get paid more per pageview with an article than a photo. But photos tend to generate a lot more pageviews than articles, so it is very easy to make more money with photos.) The website is called Triond, and the link is http://www.triond.com Let me know if you sign up (or are already on Triond) and I will add you to my friends list! Then I will check out your work so that you'll make more money! If you want to check out my work and add me to your friends list, here's a link to my profile where you can do so http://www.triond.com/users/Lindsay+Dean

Well, they seem a bit liberal with the rights they want to claim over your works...but I think I'll sign up and see how it works out. Thanks Lindsay.

I saw this article yesterday and decided to join. I have a lot of photos and I've already signed up for numerous sites, so why not another. I just uploaded three photos to see what it was like last night. This morning in my email it said they had been published. I checked out some of your photos yesterday while browsing around the site =) My screenname is AgentOrangeSkies and my pen name is Kelli Marie, if you want to check anything out.

Hey that's awesome i'll have to try that site out. I joined shareapic and that was a joke. They pay you like 22 cents per 1000 views. It works because i have all my family go there and stuff but it takes forever and your payout isn't till 20 bucks i think. that's like 10 billion views or something absurd! Thanks i will seriously check this out and hope it pays more too.

Yah, I'm also on Shareapic. I've earned a little less than a dollar on there, and I've been on since February. I've also been on Triond since February, and I've earned well over enough to get a payout every month since I joined!

Wow! I saw your pictures and it's really great. How I wish I could take pictures like that. I love photography but I'm still having hard time taking pictures like yours. As of now I considered myself an amateur in photography. So I'm still using an entry level DSLR camera. I might register triond next time. Thanks for sharing the site.
