Though I do like Boddunan's current system of revenue sharing, I would like to suggest incorporation of the "pay per view" system. That way users get paid part of the revenue that their articles earn. This will encourage members to write quality articles as well as promote them online, due to which revenues will increase.
In the current system, only regular 'point earners' have a share in the revenue, while a good writer, who writes quality articles and whose articles earn a lot of views (& therefore, revenue) but doesn't spend sufficient time 'earning points' is not rewarded at all.
Maybe Bodunnan can do it on a trial basis and see how it works. Maybe, articles would have to go through a Quality test before they are eligible to earn revenue this way. Eg. articles which have earned 50 points or more when published.
Alternatively, maybe articles could be given "points per view" and users should not be able to endlessly click their own articles of course!!! :)
Any more suggestions/opinions on this fellow boddunanians?

It was really a good move.
You should comment an article with 100% truthfulness in our heart, not to get awards. As Gulshanji told earlier, it will really hurt those authors who took time and do hard work to prepare good articles and just receive good, bad etc...type of comments, without actually reading the article. It is better not to get comments rather than receiving insincere ones. It will demotivate them.

Hi again.
With a heavy heart, I have to say that I have lost interest in Boddunan ONLY because the site is not so much about writing than it is about participation.
I mean, a serious writer cannot earn from boddunan with his writing alone - which is my main aim.
Yes, you can earn a small amount via articles, but the rest has to be earned by participating in forums and reading articles etc. - which I find a bit crazy. Because if i have sufficient time to while away, i can just log into boddunan and click on a thousand articles (without even reading them) and thus earn 1000 points per day!!!
Just last week I encashed my first cheque from Instastudio - a meagre 300 rupeees - for 2 articles of 500 words or so! This is the first time that I have ever received ACTUAL cash from my online endeavours and was surprised, since I was convinced that it was a hidden scam.
I will still check in on Boddunan since I like the forum here. But more serious work will happen only when I am convinced that my writings are earning their real worth :(

There are different ways of getting views to our articles like we can get them using by sharing our articles on social networking sites. If we can have the share buttons like Facebook, twitter, myspace, Dig, LinedIn, and sites like these, of course paid views can always be blocked as other sites do. This is just my suggestion as more the views, more popular becomes the site. Besides revenue comes through adverts and more views always help getting better site rank and more advertisers. Just a thought.
