"In my first week I made $15000!!! Click here to Find out how!!!"
We have all seen that a few too many times on here haven't we?
So like a lot of people I came onto this site out of curiosity.
The website that will pay you thousands for posting! A brief look into it and I was greeted by Jeff Berwicks multiple posts about making $15000. Almost sounds too good to be true, right?
So after spending a bit of time on the site I have seen the real potential the site has to be a place where people are incentivised to produce quality content. I did also notice that what seems to be the most consistently high earners are the posts talking about how to get high earnings. My view is that so long as that is the case the platform will exist only for its own sake.
At risk of sounding like I'm complaining about not making money, I get the feeling that it is very difficult for new users to garner any sort of visibility. Perhaps I'm just going about it the wrong way, but I don't appear to be alone. I understand that it doesn't happen overnight, however I think some kind of mechanism to help promote new content creators would go a long way to encouraging new users.
That's just my humble 2c, I'll be the first to admit I still haven't quite gotten my head around this platform entirely, so feel free to set me straight.
