Breaking away and actually making a living on PayPal, Mylot, etc.

It is possible and I have calculated it. Let's say your current regular job pays, say $10 an hour. All you have to do, then, is get on several key Web sites and make a combined $10 per hour. If you can do it on a single site, OK, try it, but I think it would be ideal of, say, five or six sites are involved. The way it would work is that it seems that any of these types of sites tend to start paying dividends. But there is always the inevitable delay! Mylot pays only once per day, and many other sites also pay but once per day. But start doing a regular routine whereby you are visiting only five or six top sites -- six maximum. Any more than that and you will be harming your results. Work one site, then the other four or five in succession and then when you finally end up back at where you started, earnings start showing up. It might be cool, too, to keep the same trade name (I have used "Radicalpatriot" all over the web and I think I pretty much have the "trademark" because when anybody tries to use that, most e-mail and Web sites say "already being used" or something to that effect). Get this steady rotation going and $10 an hour appears feasible to me!

Yes, your calculations are fair enough and realistic assuming of course you can find 5 or 6 other sites that really pay. To date, I have yet to see a site that pays and is consistent enough in their payout. If I do find good sites, I might try your suggestions. This is my first experience in online earning and I feel I'm beginning to get the "feel" of it.

You have the correct attitude, and now go out and get some sites that work for you. I'm already working a couple and I'm slowly gaining some success. Sooner or later the blogosphere will have to accommodate writers or there will be too many sites withouit decent bloggers and they will go the way of the dinosaur!

Yes, take breaks. Get a flat screen with no glare. Do what you can ... it just takes some dedication.

I would be nice to be able to do that. Mylot takes a lot oftime to make small amounts. I only make about a dollar a day here. That would make it almost impossible for me to reach such limits. Right now with all my programs I am making about $200 a month which I think is pretty good. The problem is it did not happen over night. Maybe one day I will get there.

You're actually doing all right because, eventually, your market penetration on your sites should be very strong, and with many more people joining, earnings have to climb. If they don't then people will stop participating and the sites will lose their life blood. They will have to pay more to keep their best people. And more sites will be started, competing for a limited amount of writers who are already tied up elsewhere.

Yes, you can't do it one site now but you can do it on several sites at once and rotate them around. Eventually, you will achieve high rankings at all sites, and some people will give it up, and you can also sell some of your blogs to other sites. It is possible, just very difficult, but it should get easier as the Internet grows and sites will be forced to pay more for the same amount of writers.
