Yes I know writers hate the name "content farm" but it is a good description. I was just on the Yahoo Voices Associated Content forum. Things are still looking grim. One look at my page views tells me this is not a viable way to make money anymore.
Yes you can still get upfronts but that is so short sighted.
I see many writers still trying to hang onto Demand Studios, Yahoo Voices, Cloud Crowd etc.
What we should all do instead is write for ourselves. Make your own website or blog and put your articles there. Most of us that have been freelance content writers for any length of time - know what gets views.
I am a firm believer that if you write what you are passionate about you will be successful. The beautiful thing of the death of content farms is that you can write what you love and control your own destiny.
Write that e-book you have been putting off, make that website, start a blog. Do something!
Stop depending on content farms.
