How to get pay $2.90 in 10 minutes - MakeTrace

Hi guys,

I've just tried MakeTrace.
Basically, they pay $2.90, for each content we write about a specific topic.
Someone has ever be paid by Paypal?

    Has anybody else heard of this outfit. I received an email and had a look at the website. Most of the topics are "beta" and there is no payment for content. Has anybody written for them and been paid? Has anyone else been contacted by them, is it just another random spam mail?
  • I just got an e-mail from them this morning too and I am wondering whether it is worth a go or not. The rules say that only the best articles will be paid. I don't want to waste my time on something that could be another scam.

    I know what you mean, it is hard to know without trying, but I may try one or two when there is a suitable topic and see how it goes. They pay through Paypal so won't have to give out any details and they already have my email address.
  • I might do the same. I think it says they pay at the end of the month, so won't have too long to wait I guess.

    I got the email this morning too. Might give it a try and see what happens.

    Just a thought - the way you submit looked very similar to Writers:Share when it first started. I wondered if it was linked to them or if someone who used to work for them had set it up.

    I've just written a payable comment this morning, about earning on the internet.

    We'll see how it goes.

    Hi
    I got an email this morning too. I haven't written anything yet though.
    I imagine the email addresses must have come from writersshare.

    The grammar on the "What is MakeTrace" page is interesting. I think it has been translated.

    Yes, I imagine whoever wrote it, their first language is not English. I see they're asking for comments in French too. Maybe a European site???

    Still, it looks interesting and may give it a try when they have some more topics.icon7.gif
