Get paid to submit links and comments
January 21st, 2008 by admin | 8 Comments »Web 2.0 has been a little strange. While users created all the content and kept spam away on sites like digg, youtube, facebook and myspace, the owners pocketed all the resultant value. And we are talking about billion dollar valuations here.
All that may change soon with ximmy a new social news site (similar to digg), planning to pay the users for submitting news and commenting on them.
you earn 1 point for each story you submit and 1 point for your comments. If the story you submitted hits the front page then you will get 15 points. 1000 points can be redeemed for 10$. They have an affiliate programme as well. You get $5 bonus when you sign up for the programme. You get $0.50 for everynew signup. Payout is 25$. So you need to get 40 more people to sign up to get that 25$.
That may not be a lot of money. But definitely better than nothing. Web 2.0 is supposed to be about the wisdom of the crowd and this may jus attract the crowd away from digg.
