Helium closes accounts of users from non English countries

I was not able to access helium for some months. I submitted many articles there and I was afraid about losing my earnings. I’ve contacted the support team twice, but didn’t receive any replies. I asked about this on forums and other such websites, but never got a satisfying reply. Finally I’ve got an email from Helium.com concerning my access on my account (Everyone outside US must have got one). I t tells that Helium will no longer allow users from countries where English is not the primary language. Anyway users with $25 or more will get their payments. Helium says

"Because you cannot access Helium, or will soon be blocked from access, we feel it is only fair to remove your content from the site. Full rights to the work
revert to you. Because you cannot access Helium, or will soon be blocked from
access, we feel it is only fair to remove your content from the site. Full
rights to the work revert to you."

.All users can copy and paste their articles to your hard disk and publish it elsewhere after mid-July since Helium delete them from their server. Anyway users who’ve got below $25 will not get their money for their work. It’s really painful! Imagine that 1000 users had average $20 balance in their account, they’ve lost that money! So a total of $20,000 unpaid!! It’s a fact that Helium gives full copyright to it’s users after deleting their articles. But I guess Helium must have made some ad revenue from the pages we’ve published and all that money goes to them leaving users unpaid. Well, they may release new versions for some countries and we hope we’ll get access in some future.

Ezihippo pay you considering the popularity of your content, they checks whether the other users find you content useful. Here are some information:
Minimum payout: $10
Payment method: PayPal

What you should do

Just do what you do on Facebook, Myspace or any other social networking website. Upload photos, share videos, participate in discussions and invite your friends to join! For all this you’ll get paid. In fact this system is much better. While other social networking giants take all the profits from you, these websites give you a portion of their earnings! Here you can also upload music; Add polls and start quiz and answer the quiz started by others. Yes, you’ll get paid for all these activities.

What are the other features?

While reading the earning guide one thing that caught my eye was ‘Paid to report’! Yes, Ezihippo consider members as moderators and they want us to report content that violates the terms and conditions of the website. If you report such content and they confirm that the content was against their terms they’ll delete it and this helps you to earn a bit more!

Referral program

Ezihippo has a referral program which offers 10% of your referral earnings. This is a good amount since they are a ‘Paid to social networking’ website. And also earning on Ezihippo is not a big deal and this 10% can bring you a good add up. So with 20 active referrals your earning will rise up to 200%!

My experience

Just after signing up I found a little difficult to find the stuff I was looking for, but soon it became user friendly for me. On the first day, I didn’t do much things, I just uploaded an image and went to bed. But when I checked my earning the next day I was shocked, it was $0.1, this is a good amount for one image upload. Even Shareapic.net pays $0.22 for thousand views and this experience made me active there and my earnings are going up. Anyway I am not saying that we can earn up to $1 for uploading 10 images, since I got $0.1 for one image, but I am saying that this website pays quite well.

Ciao.com

General information

Ciao is a good website to work with. Earlier they paid up to $1 for every 120 word reviews!! Now also you can make some good amount from them.
Minimum payout: $5
Payment method: PayPal
Payment date: by 15th of each month

What you should do.

Write product reviews. Just don’t limit your reviews to 120 words, let it be 400-900 words. You are free to review about the products listed there. There are also many websites on which you can write reviews on. The good part of this is that you can use the website for FREE and write reviews on them, unlike other products.
Another important thing is to read, rate and comment on your friends’ and other users’ reviews. Now this is really important since Ciao pays only based on the rates you receive (that’s why I told that you may write a bit detailed reviews). If you rate others’ reviews they’ll do the same on your reviews and your earnings go up. So such a mutual relationship is a must on Ciao to get paid!

Other features

Ciao is not jus a ‘Get paid to’ websites, moreover it’s a social community. You can make new friends there, send them private messages. You can even write messages on your friend’s wall. Using Ciao it’s easy to find virtual friends who have your interests (you can understand about their interests by looking at their reviews!).

My experience

I used Ciao for several months and got good payouts from them. I just work half or an hour on Ciao and I was able to earn more than $100 per month. They’ve paid me on the correct time and without any problems. Ciao.com is one of the best GPT websites I’ve ever used.

Important

Ciao now don’t allow all countries to access their website due to high level of abuse on the site including plagiarism, spamming of members, and revenge ratings (anyway you can read reviews, but can’t write or get paid). So I can’t access Ciao right now and I want to say something to the users who can access it “Enjoy”- you’re lucky!
