Preferred Writers Putting Admins Behind The Pen.

My PWG Earnings Are Taking Off! I've quickly found that by requiring us admins to write-to-earn has helped me make us a better site. The things you grumble about as a writer, I also grumble about. Well who is going to fix this mess?! >.<
So now I can fix it. I can see, first hand, the things that need to be done to make your writing/earning experience enjoyable and profitable.

I love the tag line I see on nearly every earning site I've joined, "If you don't make money, we don't make money." At PWG I'm going to make money regardless because I write. And I'm seeing that I can make more money here as a writer than I ever could have "legitimately" as an Admin. My posts are taking off and already out classing my other pay sites. I guess I should share how I do it.

ID Tag Your Posts
First, I have seen I need to place a small Post ID Tag on the bottom of each of my posts so I can easily key it into the search box on the Post dashboard. I key in "10197" and then search and all my posts pop up! I can see how much I've earned in page views.

Real Time Earnings
Now this brings us to the important subject of Estimated vs. Actual valid page views. Our page views we see in blogger include crawlers, bots, stats-counting sites and a whole myriad of over stuff we don't get paid for. Fortunately, our gracious Google host filters much of this out for us and our views are closely similar to our actual valid paid views. In fact, when compared to our over 4000 page views there was only a $0.14 difference. That's pretty good! If you guys want me to spit the $14 cents 4000 ways I will, but I figure we can simply leave it in to go toward the next month (lol).

Cashing out
I don't know about you, but as a writer I don't want to sit waiting on my money. If its a dollar I want it in my Paypal. As a writer, that dollar often means the difference between Instant Coffee and Starbucks. O.o
So when our overall funds reach $100, we are cashing in! We will still have to wait on snail mail after cashing in, but once Laurie and I get it we will be sending it to you.

Keep Sharing!
Keep sharing those old posts. You don't have to delete and re-post that article from weeks back. If it's been awlile send it back through the share sites, etc. Your PWG posts keep on earning. If your post from last month earns this month you will get paid for it.

we are still working out the bugs here at PWG, but the weight here will always be in the writer's favor. Because we are ALL writers!

    1. I followed your advice to create a post ID and while I can now pull all my posts up, I don't see how much I've earned in page views. Can you tell me more?

    2. In the earnings tab, you will see the PPV. We are currently earning an average of $0.01 per view. Feel free to stop by the How It Works page to learn ways to improve your overall post performance.

    3. Right... I get that, I was referring to your suggestion here:

      "ID Tag Your Posts
      First, I have seen I need to place a small Post ID Tag on the bottom of each of my posts so I can easily key it into the search box on the Post dashboard. I key in "10197" and then search and all my posts pop up! I can see how much I've earned in page views."

      I thought the benefit of adding the ID to each post was as stated "I can see how much I've earned in page views." But I don't see my own page views pop up when I use the ID. I do, however, see the general $0.01 per view.

    4. Oh. I'm sorry. Yes to the left after your post you see a set of numbers, one of which is your estimated page views. Multiply this by the PPV and you get an idea of how much you have earned. The benefit you getting 100% of your own view earnings as that we don't require a mathematics degree to figure our earnings. PPV x estimated views = approximate earnings. as stated the final count is determines at the end of the month.

    5. D'oh! I have been looking and looking... on the HOME page! I just figured out you are talking about the POSTS page where the stats are. I was looking at the upper left hand corner of the HOME page...
