They are not the only site that wants to profit without properly compensating writers. It's unfortunate.
One of the most mysterious
One of the most mysterious things about eHow, like this article mentions, is their algorithm for deciding who gets paid what. Not complaining - I make a lot of money on eHow every month - but it is sort of frustrating to know how much YOU make off an article without any idea as to what THEY are making. Sometimes you have to wonder if they are skimming the ads off the best of the lot and leaving us the subprime ones. For example, I have some articles that make decent money, but my most-read and most-Digged articles are suspiciously absent from that list . . .

Regarding eHow, I am quite disappointed. Now, the new articles for February are posting to the UK site again. They say they are aware of the problem, but I want to know how it happens to begin with. I haven't written articles for them this month, but I did research it to make sure the rumors were true, and they are.

I think everyone who ever has or continues to write for eHow is dazed and confused.
