Bukisa is a new Web content site that works much like Associated Content. If you have never written for Associated Content, please see my hub about that site. If you have, you know how rewarding it can be to write short pieces for the site and to get paid for doing so.

There are a couple of differences between the two sites, however. Associated Content has been around for a number of years and has an active community of readers. Bukisa is very new and is not yet getting their viewing numbers.

And, with Bukisa, there is no upfront payment when you write for them. That means that you will not be offered a flat dollar amount in exchange for the article or other piece of content. Instead, you are paid purely based on how many people view your items. For each thousand people who view it, you are paid an amount equal to the amount posted on the site's pay index. That amount is called the Bukisa index and it changes monthly. Right now it is $3.95 for every thousand page views.

Bukisa can be used for any number of purposes. Personally, I use it like an article directory to promote other items. I have written a few articles for the site and use links in those articles to my websites or to other articles that I have online that need to be promoted. Some people use it as a way to have a little fun, writing imaginative content as a hobby.

For those who are serious about earning through the site, Bukisa wants articles about how to do things, and it promotes its how-to articles. Anything that is useful and likely to be looked up online is a good potential how-to article topic.

If you don't really like writing or don't feel that you're any good, there are other ways to earn money on Bukisa. You can also create short videos for the site. These videos earn money at the same rate as the text content on the site. You can even submit video how to items.

The minimum amount for the Bukisa payout is $50. For people that only submit a few articles or other items, payout may take a long time. However, there are other ways to make that payout faster. Bukisa accepts reprints if you still have the rights to the articles.

So, if you write for eHow, Associated Content or any other content website that allows you to keep the rights to your works, you can reprint them on Bukisa for even more money on content that you have already written.
