Bubblews Making it Harder to get any Actual Cash
If you write online you are probably familiar with the new trend of making it harder to make money online. It started a while back with Google Adsense changing what they paid for. Hubpages income dropped. Squidoo quickly followed.
Now Bubblews is changing their threshold for withdrawals. What will be next?
Internet Money
Everyone needs money to survive. The electric bill must be paid. We all have to eat, and God forbid we have to go without internet service! Well, wouldn't it be nice if you could supplement your income from home? Many of us have done just that. We find odd and end jobs online so that we can work part time from home. Most of us still keep a day job (or night job) because we know that we just can't depend on these online gigs to stay steady.
We Are Not in Control
No matter how much we hate admitting it, we are not in control. If we were, we would be getting a higher percentage payout from companies like Hubpages, Squidoo, Bubblews, and many others that we get paid from for blogging. These pyramid type businesses promise lots of possibilities for the future, but once the future becomes present, we are suddennly finding that the small print has changed, the pay rates have dropped, and we are left with hours upon hours of time invested in a job that was fun, but was still work, and the pennies we have made will barely support our weekly Starbucks habit.
Bubblews Raises Their Payout Threshold
Bubblews has raised their payout threshold from $25 to $50, making it harder for someone like me to make a withdrawal. I am very new to the site. So far I have been on the site for only a week. I was hoping to use it to attract some new readers to my squidoo articles. To date I have made $2.45. I was beginning to wonder just how long it takes someone to build up to that far off number of $25. Now I'm going to have to wait even longer to get paid because Bubblews has bumped that $25 threshold up to $50. This might not be an issue for those who are making their millions on the site, but what about the lowly on the totem pole like me?What Can We Do?
What are our option to fight this ongoing battle?
One, we can start our own website and keep all f our own revenue. Two, we can suck it up and deal with it as everyone always has, or three, we can write and tell them that we want it lowered back to where it was.
What will you do?
