Make Money Writing On Infobarrel

Infobarrel is an article writing site, similar to hubpages, which offers revenue share to it's publishers. It is a relatively new site when compared to hubpages and squidoo but it has quickly achieved a decent PR of 4. The site was launched in mid 2008 and it has been receiving a lot of google love. This site has been growing exponentially and it is now in the top 3000 most visited site according to Alexa ranking. This all shows that infobarrel is worth signing up but we would still look at the specific reason as to why you should join infobarrel and how it will be beneficial to you.

Why you should join Infobarrel:

  • Best place to backlink your articles:

    Infobarrel is by far the best place for backlinks to your hubpages hubs, squidoo lens or your own website. Infobarrel is getting a lot of google love and the articles at infobarrel gets indexed almost instantly. Backlinks from infobarrel also carries a lot of weight and would certainly help your main article to move up in SERPs.

  • Low bounce rate and better CTR than Hubpages and Squidoo:

As you can see from the image above, infobarrel has a very low bounce rate when to article writing sites like hubpages, squidoo and xomba. This means more number of clicks for the same amount of traffic. This would improve your click through rate and without a doubt your earnings.

  • Generous revenue sharing:

    The revenue sharing at infobarrel, without a doubt, is very generous. Infact when compared to other article writing sites, the revenue share at infobarrel is the best. Hubpages splits the revenue 60:40 in favor of publisher while at infobarrel it is 75:25 in favor of publisher which can go upto 90% if you participate in their monthly contests. Also, apart from adsense and amazon, infobarrel provides chitika network to it's publishers. But you will need to have a chitika account. Sign up for chitika here.
  • Contests:

    Contests are a prominent and regular feature of Infobarrel. Infobarrel organizes montly contests on a particular theme. The participants with the most article submitted and published is the winner. The first prize winner gets $100 amazon gift card, second prize winner gets $50 and third prze winner gets $25. Also, you get points for every article submitted and published and accordingly your revenue share increases. It can go upto 85-90%. So it is definitely a win-win situation for every participant. Also, if you do not wish to participate, you can always look at the contest theme and get an idea of what's the hot topic. Then you can write that article on writing patform like hubpages or your own site.
  • Infobarrel has a bright future and is here to stay:

    Never has an article writing site has shown growth this fast. I mean, before 6 months this site was in top 12000 sites according to Alexa and now it is in top 3000 and I believe it will soon go past beyond Xomba. Also the good thing about the site is that it is moderated by editors. They review your articles for spam, duplicate and crap before they get published. So it effectively keeps out spammers and keep the site clean. This will keep the google love flowing and it will be one of big G favorite site. I can only see infobarrel going in one direction and that is upwards. It would certainly be wise to be a part of this site when it is still in its infancy.

I keep meaning to head over there but I enjoy HubPages too much and never get around to it!

I seem to recall that you can't delete your articles?

Same here Marisa, I also enjoy the ease at which I can publish articles here at hubpages and I just love the ever helping community here.

But I am seeing good adsense returns on the 3 articles I published there(as a part of 60dc2) and that is very motivating. Infobarrel will certainly top the list when it comes to backlinks to your hubs or website. Worth a try Marisa!!

And yea, I started a forum thread there as to whether we can delete our articles or not and it looks like we can delete our articles but we have to contact infobarrel for that. I am just waiting for infobarrel staff to respond and I will inform you.

Thanks for stopping by!!

I write on InfoBarrel. I can see that it's an article writing site, but how do you use it for backlinks? Do you just put your URL within a similar article?

I don't get how to use it to link to HUBPAGES?

This is what is says:

Here are a few of the main editorial guidelines for posting content on InfoBarrel.com.

Your content:

1. Should be at least 325 words, with an ideal size of 400 or more words. Articles under 400 words will most likely NOT appear on the index.

2. Must be original and be created by you and must not have been submitted or posted elsewhere on the web.

3. Must not be a sales document, advertisement or any other type of promotional document.

4. Must be written in proper English with correct spelling, grammar and structure.

5. Must not be derogatory, hateful, pornographic or defamatory in any manner.

6. Must not have external links in the first paragraph. Links to other InfoBarrel content is ok.

7. Maximum of 2 self-serving links per article.

Anyone able to write "Infobarrel for dummies", please?

englightenedsoul Hub Author 17 months ago

Antonie Infobarrel works similarly to Hubpages except for the fact that the articles are editorially reviewed before they are published. You just have to make sure you get your grammar correct and dont put link in first paragraph and you would be fine. Just try submitting a article or two and you will know. They even give you specific reason why your article was rejected. So that will help you too.

Let me know if you get through it!! Thanks for stopping by!!

I'll give it a try. Thanks. Can you give us an example of one of your posts there, please? Could help me in understanding it better, you see. I am a complete newbie here... Thanks anyway!

englightenedsoul Hub Author 17 months ago

I am sorry, I should have given you an example. Here is a link to my article there

http://www.infobarrel.com/Challenges_Before_Human_

I have added a link to my hub in the second paragraph and the second link goes to my blog on management in the last paragraph.

I hope that helps!!

Hello EnlightenedSoul, I've spotted some Chithika ads as well as Amazon ads on this site, but I guess members can only benefit via AdSense ads right?

englightenedsoul profile image

englightenedsoul Hub Author 16 months ago

Hi quicksand. And to answer your query, Infobarrel members benefit from chitika, amazon and adsense ads. You just have to fill in the affiliate ids in your account settings. Cool isn't it!!
