I feel that I should really stop writing about Toutiao

Thursday, January 25, 2024, is the day of Toutiao's withdrawal, and at 12:41 on this day, Toutiao announced on the official "Toutiao Account" that the "income withdrawal" threshold for personal accounts will be reduced from 50 yuan to 1 yuan from January 25, 2024.

On January 25, 2024, Toutiao announced that from January 25, 2024, the withdrawal threshold of Toutiao will be reduced from 50 yuan to 1 yuan

In other words, as long as you have saved enough 1 yuan on Toutiao, you can withdraw it on Thursday. The last time Toutiao announced that it would lower the withdrawal threshold from 100 yuan to 50 yuan was on July 27, 2023.

I estimate that this probably means that there are really fewer and fewer people who are engaged in creating and writing things on Toutiao, so Toutiao will continue to lower the withdrawal threshold and encourage more people to write and post videos on Toutiao. Now, many people don't want to write because it's hard to make money because they write things and post videos on Toutiao, and I don't want to write, and I am the same.

For the vast majority of people, they have invested a lot of time and energy in Toutiao every day, and have worked hard to write a lot of things, but in the end, they found that the reading volume and income are really pitiful, only a few cents, a few cents, and a few yuan a day, which does not match the time and energy they pay at all, and it is a money-losing business, so many people don't want to post things on Toutiao.

My earnings on Toutiao are about $1.73 per day on average

I registered Toutiao on the morning of May 27, 2020 and started writing, and by January 27, 2024, it is already the 1340th day, in these 1340 days, I have at least 1100 days, and every day I spend a lot of time and energy to write seriously, but until now, my income is still very unsatisfactory, and my daily income is only a few cents, 1 yuan, 2 yuan or a few yuan, which is not proportional to the time and energy I pay.

In these 1340 days, my cumulative income is 2320.38 yuan, and the average daily income is only 1.73 yuan.

I started writing on Toutiao on May 27, 2020, and the cumulative income for 1340 days was 2320.38 yuan, and the average daily income was only 1.73 yuan

I have been seriously creating on Toutiao for more than 1,100 days, and most of the daily income is only a few cents, one yuan, two yuan or a few yuan

On the 1206th day of my creation on Toutiao, the total income was 1950.62 yuan

If it were purely from the perspective of revenue, I should not have written about Toutiao a long time ago. For me, writing on Toutiao is actually a money-losing business, and I can't continue to waste time and energy on Toutiao. Even if you go to the street to pick up bottles, you can make more money than writing in today's headlines.

Some people say that I am insisting, but in fact, I am not insisting at all, but I like to write things on Toutiao from the bottom of my heart. In addition, I also feel that I seem to have mastered some of the traffic passwords of Toutiao, and I fantasize that one day, I can also make money on Toutiao, so I have been writing with interest until now.

Rationally speaking, I have been trying on Toutiao for so long, and I still can't make any money, so I should have lost my way and retreated, and stopped wasting time and energy like this.

I am deeply aware that it is too difficult to make money on Toutiao. I felt like a donkey with a carrot on a leash in front of me, as if hope was right in front of me, but in fact I was disappointed almost every time. But I still fantasize that one day, I can really master the traffic password of Toutiao, and I can earn one or two hundred yuan on Toutiao every day, or even a few hundred yuan.

I felt like a donkey with a carrot on a leash in front of me, and hope seemed to be right in front of me, but in reality I was disappointed almost every time

I've found that many people also say that it's hard to make money on Toutiao.

On January 25, 2024, the reason why Toutiao's withdrawal threshold was lowered from 50 yuan to 1 yuan, Toutiao officially said that it was to better meet everyone's withdrawal demands and encourage everyone to create more high-quality content in Toutiao.

On July 27, 2023, the reason why Toutiao lowered the withdrawal threshold from 100 yuan to 50 yuan is that Toutiao's official statement also means that in order to better meet everyone's withdrawal demands, everyone is encouraged to create more high-quality content.

During this period, Toutiao also introduced measures to encourage original debuts.

It seems that I am real, and it is time to stop the precipice on the headlines and stop wasting time and energy on creation.
