Welcome!



Welcome to the "Johnny's Ehow Experiment" section of the internet.  I am a starving college student who recently found out that he has no job and is running out of money.  After reading a blog about the Ehow writer's compensation program, and how much money people were making, I decided to give it a try.  This blog is here to document my progress as a writer on ehow and to see what the real earnings potential of the site is.  Is it possible to write for eHow full time?  Over the next couple of months we'll see....

HOW I GOT IN THIS SITUATION:

Over the course of my life I have done some lucrative things.  After a friend and I made a pretty decent living selling iPhones, we decided to skip town and head back to Europe.  It was a fantastic trip, visiting relatives in Sweden and such.  On my return, I found out that my screen printing business had vanished into another dimension and I had no way to make money.  I decided to finally get a normal job, but during a bad recession, "starving college student" isn't enough on a resume to get hired.  After reading about Ehow's writer compensation program, I decided to give it a try.         

GOALS:
The goal I have set is to write at least 25 articles a week.  I plan on doing 5 articles a day, 5 days a week, and on the weekends I can either get ahead or catch up if I had a day that was just too busy to write.  The articles have to be QUALITY, I can't just write mumbo jumbo to get my count up.  If you read the about me, 

TOTALS:
Articles written: 44
  Money made:  About $5   

I'll be updating every week with my totals, and hopefully blogging more than that about my findings and what not.  I would love for you to subscribe and follow along as I try to do the impossible, become a full time eHow writer!
