Helium offers me tons of money and millions of readers. BS? Let’s see.

Update: It appears that they don’t want me to link to their site anymore. I guess that answers my question.

helium Shows Me The Money It isn’t often that I get offered millions of readers and money on top of that. I hate to turn it down. Helium has offered to pay me eight dollars for every one of you good readers that clicks their sales link and writes an article for their site. They also, as a kicker, told me that I could expand my audience by millions just by posting my existing articles on their site. I asked for proof, but alas they have none to offer.

I tried to make a counter offer, a simple link exchange, but apparently they “are not set up for reciprocal linking”. Instead, they just want to pay me. Frankly, I think they’re a bunch of nutbars, but who am I to stand in the way of me making money?

So here is the deal they are offering:

I post their link.
You click on it, join Helium, and write an article for them. (They say they’ll pay you, but how much is anyone’s guess)
I get my eight dollars.
I spend the eight dollars on a Little Caesar’ Pizza™ with Crazy Bread™ and a Coke™ (or something else)

I would like to sweeten the pot for everyone. If you do as they say AND link to me in your Helium article, I will post a weekly blog entry that links back to your helium posts. After the article is up, just send your link to:

heresyourheliumarticlelink@poewar.com

Here’s their link:
