It's a good job I'm used to Ciao's gremlins... 19/10/2012

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

It Won't Make You Rich, But You Yourself Can 04/06/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages Write for yourself, about what interests you
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

Paid per click not per article. 16/10/2010

User recommends the product

Advantages Reliable, as far as per view payments go
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

Low earnings, not worth the time and effort 13/08/2011

User doesn't recommend the product

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

Triond - is it helpful for new writers? 20/05/2011

User recommends the product

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