Bukisa is free to join, and pays $3.22 US per thousand clicks on your articles. And for the average article over a ten year period, that would work out to an average wage per hour, for the time spent, and the money paid.
But,
Bukisa also offers a 25% commission on your first level referral's article earnings, then a 5% commission on their article earnings, and a 1% commission on theirs. You can get referrals as easily as including your referral link at the end of each article you write, as link text (

Then every time your articles are found in a Google search, you not only get a click, but a chance at getting a referral. I have learned a lot about SEO from article writing, and most of my articles these days are on the first page of a Google search.
You can advertise other referral links or sites at the same time, such as being paid to write a favorable article for a website. I just got a gig on fiver.com to write an article and make links for their website, and so if you put all of your eggs in one basket, in this case, it works very well.
I advertise my Sidetick referral link there, as well as any other free to join site with a referral program, and that gives me incentive, and ideas to write new articles. The more permanent places like this I post my referral link, the more referrals I get every day. I am getting about two a day at the moment. Give it a try. Articles are good for anything online.
