31st, 2010, (4 1/2 months later) my article had 239 views.

Earning Money at HowToDoThings.com
Writing for HowToDoThings.com
As I mentioned above, HowToDoThings.com pays 50% of Google Adsense
earnings and you must have a Google Adsense ID to get paid as a writer.
For me, that meant that I earned a whopping 24 cents from my 175 word
article in 4 months. That is 6 cents per month and while it isn’t a lot,
it is something. Because everything is paid directly from Adense, there
is a minimum payout of $100.00.
Page Rank at HowToDoThings.com

My keyword density in my article “How to Make an Herbal Syrup”
was 1.94 for the keyword phrase “make an herbal syrup.” That is pretty
average (possibly a little lower than what you want for SEO). Regardless
of that, if you Google “make an herbal syrup,” you will find my How To
Do Things article listed number 2 on the 1st page of Google search
results. It ranked above an eHow article on the same topic.
The homepage of HowToDoThings.com has a Google Page Rank of 6, which is very good. It means your articles written there will get noticed by Google.
