I would be very interested in becoming a half-guide for Mahalo. Would anyone know how to go about that?

I replied and told them that while I appreciated the prompt payment, I did not feel I was a good fit for their guide position. So I guess that’s that! Those of you who decide to continue with it, I would love to hear how it’s going for you.

Mahalo does pay — they have paid me for two of my training articles so far, each time on Wednesday as promised. However, I personally think that they should raise pay for all of their guides. When you consider the amount of work that goes into creating a Mahalo page, the pay may not be worth it.

If a person was unable to get an account with Demand Studios, wiseGEEK, or some other site that paid a comparable amount, Mahalo might be worth it. I’m listing it here because it’s a legitimate opportunity and I have proof that they pay, but I would advise almost anyone to look elsewhere before applying here. Just my two cents — I do know that there are some people who are happy with them.

There are also some people who will not work for them based on principle. You can read about the class action lawsuit Mahalo is involved in here if you would like to know more about that. If you’re interested in signing up for Mahalo, you can apply here.
