Bukisa is a paid to write site where writers are paid for the page views which their articles received. Naturally when you join such a site, you should be writing articles in order to make any money. However, this is not the only way you can make money from Bukisa. Having had some experience with Bukisa, I can think of five ways you can make money from Bukisa without writing articles.

1. Your profile page

When you join Bukisa, you're allowed to set up your profile page like a sales page. You're allowed to promote your website and your products. You can leave links that will bring visitors to your affiliate sales page. Here is an opportunity for you to make money.

To promote your profile page, read other people's articles at Bukisa and leave comments. When others see your comments, they might click on your profile picture, and be brought to your profile page. Be as enticing as you can on your profile page and the visitor might click on your affiliate link.

2. Bookmark interesting articles

There are many interesting articles on Bukisa. You can check out the featured articles page to find some of these. Bookmark these articles on Xomba and SheToldMe and when visitors go and visit your bookmark, you'll earn from the adsense ads that are placed there. Here is a way for you to earn from adsense without having a website.

3. Republish articles

Find articles at Bukisa that are relevant to your website which are keyword optimized and appear on Google first page. Publish these articles on your website and you'll get organic traffic to your website. If your website is monetized with adsense ads, you might potentially increase your adsense revenue and if there are affiliate products on your website, you might also earn affiliate commission when visitors make a purchase.

4. Direct advertising

If you can afford it, you might want to approach the Bukisa administrators for advertising space. If you check the traffic stats of Bukisa at Alexa, you can see that traffic to Bukisa is on the rise. Advertising on Bukisa would mean you'd get many views for your advertisements.

5. Referrals

Bukisa also has a referral system which goes three levels deep which means that if you refer a writer to Bukisa, you'll earn from what he earns. And if he refers another writer, you'll also earn from the earnings of his referral and on it goes to three levels.

The secret to making money with referrals is to get active referrals. And to do this is not by advertising your referral link indiscriminately. It's better to have one active referral than ten referrals who do nothing.

What you need to do is to network with others and approach them personally and invite them to join Bukisa. You must help them earn money in order for you to earn money too. Encourage them to write, give them ideas on what to write and then read their articles and leave a comment. Bookmark their articles and promote them. By helping them to earn money, you too will earn.

Imagine if you have ten referrals, each earning $10 a month. You get $2.50 per referral and that'll be $25 a month without even writing a single article! This is your earnings from your direct referrals. If your referrals were to refer others, you'll earn from their referrals which will only mean increased revenue for you.

The best way to make money at Bukisa is still to write as many articles as you can but if writing is not your forte, you can still use the above five methods to make money from Bukisa without writing articles.
