]]> Comment on eHOW Members: An Unhappy Bunch! by Angela R Beasley http://www.cgiware.com/2010/04/14/ehow-members-an-unhappy-bunch.html/comment-page-1#comment-135 Angela R Beasley Tue, 11 May 2010 18:59:38 +0000 http://www.cgiware.com/?p=83#comment-135 I was one of the more recent members of www.eHow.com. More specifically, I was on my second article upon notification of the switch to Demand Studios. During the short time I was there, I really enjoyed the eHow set-up and community. I believe eHow became the site it was because of the freedoms afforded to the writers and self-policing efforts of the community. In my opinion, whenever you offer creative minds the freedom to express themselves without attempting to exert control over their creations, you typically end up with better results. With www.eHow.com, writers were able to post their articles on eHow and their own web sites or blogs and still profit from eHow. Demand Studios is "demanding" (yes the pun is intended) that they own writer's works (full ownership) in order for writers to be able to post to their site - pretty "demanding" isn't it (yeah, I know, that one was overkill). A lot of eHow writers were upset over the change and with Demand Studio’s policies. I personally do not agree with their policies. The great thing about the Internet is that we have choices and new choices pop up every day. The other great thing about the Internet is the ability to distribute your own content– or to start your own forum, blog or community with little or no overhead.

Google analytics is a free tool powered by google. You only pay for the tool if you page view per day reaches a certain level. As for quantcast, i have not really used them, though i registered few of my sites with them but later removed their codes as i didn't find much use for them. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
