Many Triond writers give up easily in writing and publishing their works in Triond mainly because of the low price per page view calculations. Unlike any other content publishing firms, such as Helium, Newsvine, Associated Content and myLot, Triond calculates the earnings using eRPM - “Effective-Revenues-Per-Millennium”. The standard equation shown in Triond F.A.Qs is, “Earnings = page views * eRPM / 1000”; however, the calculations are evidently indefinite with all other contributing factors of the equation, such as the cost of the article per 1000 views, the increase of article rate per popularity views, clout levels, etc. Triond simply places two components that vaguely describe its effects on the monthly revenues generated by an article.
Nevertheless, Triond, compared to other content publishing firms, offers better publishing mechanics, simpler and unique distribution schemes and on-time payments. Hence, Triond is considerably a better way to invest free time publishing and writing even at first the earnings hit only less than a dollar.
Based from my personal experience, I managed to formulate a simple plan on how can I increase my earnings up to $300 monthly from my published articles. There are three things I need to consider in reaching this income projection:
- How many articles do I need to publish per day?
- How many hits should I attain for every article per month?
- How long will it takes for me to generate the projected income at Triond?
Starting with the first question: How many articles do I need to publish per day?
In order to answer this question, I have utilized two important components, namely (a) eRPM and (b) projected income per day (PIPD). Based from the Triond earnings FAQS, eRPM ranges between $0.5 to $10.00 per 1000 page views, but for the sake of the calculation, I have simplified the range by getting its average, which is $5.25 per 1000 page views.
If the eRPM of an article is $5.25 and the PIPD is $300, we can use the following equation to determine the how many articles are needed to be published per day. Addition to the equation is the expected hits per article (HPP), which assumes the needed hits per
- eRPM x 30 Days = Expected Earnings per 1000 page views per month
$5.25 x 30 Days = $157.5 per 1000 views of one single published content per month
- PIPD / 30 days = Projected Earnings per day of a single published article
$300/ 30 days = $10 must be generated by a single article per day
- [(eRPM x 30) / 2] x 1/PIPD = The number of Articles Published with hits of 500 page views per day
[($5.25 x 30) / 2] x 1/$300 = 4 Articles with hits of 500 page views per day should be published
To Check:
[(Number of Articles per day x eRPM) / 2] x 30 days = Approximated PIPD
[(4 x $5.25) / 2] x 30 days = $315 per month for 4 articles with at least 500 page views per day and an eRPM rate of $5.25
If an article will have the maximum of 500 page views per day in the lowest possible eRPM of $0.5 per 1000 page views, then the following equation should be used to know the number of articles needed to be published per day and the number of hits it should possess per day.
[($0.5 x 30) / 2] x 1/$300 = 40 Articles with hits of 500 page views per day should be published in order to obtain your PIPD
To Check:
[(40 x $0.5) / 2] x 30 days = $300 per month for 4 articles with at least 500 page views per day and an eRPM rate of $5.25
In conclusion, you need to publish 120 articles with eRPM rates of $5.25 and should be viewed at lest 500 times per day for you to obtain $300 per month. Meanwhile, if the eRPM is the lowest $0.5 then you must be able to publish 1200 articles with similar conditions above for you to obtain your $300 dollars per month. The good news is eRPM rates increase over time due to several reasons, such as popularity, number of clicks, and quality of the content. Bottom line is you need to publish good content for you to earn higher eRPM rates and eventually getting your projected amount per month.
Blessings!
