After I wrote a couple of hubs about writing on Helium, I got comments saying that Helium no longer accepts writers from outside the US. Yesterday one of the Helium staff contacted me about something else, so I asked him if that was true. Nope! Only writers from the Philippines and India are filtered - something about advertising. I was told that for Heliumites from countries that don't have Paypal, their account can be set up with a friend/relative/acquaintance in a country where Paypal is accepted.
Just wanted to clear this up for those wanting to write on Helium but thought they couldn't. I don't think you'll make as much from adclicks there, but their Marketplace is great for some quick cash!
I'm amazed by all the ways one can write for the internet. Thanks for the headsup Habee.

Helium is now Helium Network, with 360 micro-sites to distribute your content. Content managers are there to ensure quality of the content and they claim that this arrangement is to have SEO in mind.

Is Writing in Helium Worth It?
by Carolee Samuda 11 years ago
I lost my job about a week ago. I joined HP to make money but when I realized it was happening the way I thought, I just did it for fun. Now I am thinking that I am doing all this for nothing and now I ain't got a job. So the decision is to find a way to earn on HubPages.Tips any one?

I wanted to get a feel for how many people use job writing sites ie Freelance Writing Jobs.com, or others. Are they worth all the effort to bid on jobs or is it just working for $1 per hour.

What do you like MOST about writing on HubpagesWe all have reasons for choosing Hubpages to store up our treasured writings. I'm curious to know what motivates other writers to write on Hubpages.

Does anyone else ever get so exciting about writing that they can't go to sleep. This happens to me sometimes and I'm just wondering if this is a good thing or a bad thing? Sure I get some good writing in but then i look and feel like a zombie all the next day. Am I the only one.....?
