New and Improved Bubblews Site Makes Me Go Hmm

     So Bubblews launched its new and improved site. I notice they have a lot of neat features, you can now see how many views you recieve, there is a delay to like a post which is supposed to make some people read the post. There are other changes I haven't found yet.

     I am not sure I like the new design, it is very busy and a lot of ads flashing and flickering about. I don't like that there is no way to make a paragraph break so the sentences just run together. But then the site is not about quality writing, it is about socializing.

     They do have a way to help bring outside traffic I think but why bother, they don't pay for that.

     I won't go there anymore than I did because of the low pay. The pay is what made me leave. I just can't work for pennies a month.

Bubblews Bubble Burst

     I don't go to Bubblews often because well, while it is nice to read online stuff and commuincate online, I don't have time to just play online. I have to make a living and feed my family. I used to go to Bubblews for some extra money and had fun there too. Then they changed things and of course as we all know they no longer appreciated good articles and those who were there only wanted fluff. I complied and had fun for a while making a bit of change along the way.
    
     Then the bottom dropped out, the bubble burst. Income on Bubblews became pretty much non existent.

      I cashed out in January and have made $21.00 since. Actually most of that was in late Jan, since about Feb I have earned $3.00 maybe. Granted I don't write there much, I don't' communicate much and I'm just not there much. There are some interesting things to read but much of the writing there is very short and really not much meat to it. If it is long it is very long and more than I want to read. Sometimes there's that middle ground but it just is not my cup of tea anymore and, there's pretty much no income which bottom line, is the reason I am there.  I can socialize on Fb and that is what it is for, the other sites are for income.

     I mostly go back to Bubblews from time to time to see if maybe things are getting bettter there, so far they are not...so as the bubble burst, my interest waned. I still hope people will purchase my book.
