Vocal scores extremely low on google ratings, 95% of people don't make any real money, no matter how hard they try or what techniques they use. Vocal is almost entirely up to the user to promote their work. If you don't have an insane social media following, don't write the same rehashed success stories, aren't a tech manual writer or have something to do with I.T., then you don't make any real money and honestly, advertising that you made $8000.00 dollars writing on vocal begs the question of how long did that actually take. I know of one person that made 6,000 and it took him over 18 months to make that kind of money. Referring to the vocal challenges, unless you fit into vocal's niche you can't actually win the challenges. There are four common denominators that apply to the winners the past ten months. The reality is, that most people if they really push themselves, and do a lot of writing, as well as shamelessly self promoting their work, they'll be lucky to make 300 dollars in a year unless they've got a heavy following on social media as it takes getting a million reads to reach 6,000.00.
