    4 Stars It's a good job I'm used to Ciao's gremlins... 19/10/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Freedom of writing, they pay on time, write about what interests you

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Gltchy as hell and a complete lack of customer support

    Oddly writing this review makes me feel somewhat like a traitor, like I have turned my back on Ciao and moved across to a new writing site. The truth however is more likely to be that I saw an opportunity to write outside of the square boxes that Ciao demands and I’m a tight assed git who saw a window to potentially make a little more cash. I was quite keen to be able to write pieces that weren’t necessarily product reviews and potentially earn a little bit of money, so when I read another review on here about Triond I thought I’d give it a shot. What is it? Triond is a writing site which ... more

    4 Stars It Won't Make You Rich, But You Yourself Can 04/06/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Write for yourself, about what interests you

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Some site users have less than perfect english

    I’m not going to lie; I’m a grubby little money grabbing git! Yes it’s true, don’t try and persuade me otherwise. Having been lured into the world of review writing via Ciao, I found the need to sometimes write outside the box. And on sites like Ciao, there are only so many categories you can write in. I was lured to Triond by a couple of Dooyoo users, one of whom was the late great Jan Harper AKA Louie Jerome, who had supported the Israeli owned site since its early days. Jan promised me great things should I invest time and effort in the site; and to some degree this lady was absolutely ... more

    3 Stars Paid per click not per article. 16/10/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Reliable, as far as per view payments go

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No upfront payments for posting your work

    Triond is another one of the many websites where you get paid to write. And while it is reliable as far as getting you your money, it might not be worth your time unless you are a member of other such website which implements upfront payments. Triond will pay you revenue share for your articles, pictures and other media. So basically you get paid per click. From my personal use of Triond it is nothing compared to Helium. With my articles (even when I had a lot less) on Helium I easily earn ten dollars per month whereas on Triond I get barely a dollar. Recently though they have implemented a ... more

    2 Stars Low earnings, not worth the time and effort 13/08/2011
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Forum, Search, Very active, New content minutely, Kind members, Easy to navigate, Good design

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No support, No moderators in forum, Low earnings

    In my opinion and personal experience, I have found that using Triond is not worth it any more. Triond used to be a great site where you would submit your content either writing, pictures, audio and videos and you would earn for every visit to your content. At first the earnings were great there, but after a while Triond started paying a lot less and everyone noticed where they'd get around $2 per 1000 views there now only getting around $0.60 per 1000 views. This was quite worrying, and almost instantly people started crying scam in it's forum and members also saying goodbye because they were ... more

    4 Stars Triond - is it helpful for new writers? 20/05/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use, fun, good for bloggers, social and varied

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Low pay

    I started using Triond as a publishing platform during my teens, mainly because I was unsure and afraid of the official publishing process. The site gives writers the opportunity to publish on a wide variety of website, some of better quality than others - it is, in effect, an internet publishing middle man. Triond also function like a social networking site for writers, which is excellent if you are starting out, or testing the water of freelance journalism. There is a degree of quality control as well, as if any article/poem/piece submitted is sub standard in its gramatical of copy content ... more

    1 Star My experience writing for Triond. 15/05/2011
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Hard to make money, not enough reward to work ratio

    As with most users of Triond i was looking at making some extra money from home in my spare time. Little did i know i was in for hours upon hours of hard work writing proffesional articles for a website that promises well paid revenue and easy income. Within my first month at Triond i had published 45 brilliant articles and was rather pleased wit my work, i applied my social network accounts and intergrated all my advertising knowledge to gain more hits and reads on my articles and was sure i would be making money in no time ... boy as i wrong ! After 5 months with Triond and some 175 articles ... more

    3 Stars Triond: Publish all content 17/06/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to post content, can make money from creative content, good community

    Disadvantages Disadvantages little money from creative writing, not as much revenue as other portals

    I originally discovered Triond whilst looking for a means to publish some of my short stories. I signed up and published a couple of my short stories straight away. I was unsure about what kind of revenue i would make from this type of content. After reading some of the forums on Triond i discovered that Authspot (the site to which Triond publishes creative content) is actually one of the lowest revenue providers. Triond forums allow users to interact with each other and promote content. Triond also allows users to post twitter feeds to their profiles. I have since then begun to write more ... more

    4 Stars Triond: A good way to start money blogging 16/01/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Slow to earn money

    Disadvantages Disadvantages On-time with payments

    Triond.com is a good blogging site but if you are expecting for payments you should look for another writing site. I am a Triond user and since i really signed up there to earn money, I was expecting to be paid per view of my articles. But unfortunately, it depends on the rate and not per clicks of your articles. I love using it because it would be a good start for writers to earn bit by bit but not for somebody who will make this as a home-based job. However, according to some reviews of other users, triond are very punctual when it comes to payout. Also, I've noticed that some of these ... more
