With websites like Triond and Helium, writers earn money based on the number of views your article gets. Some articles get more view than others. In my guide, I will give you some pointers to getting your articles read by more people and thus generating more money.
Write About What You Know
This is the most important step in getting your articles read. People like to read articles that are filled with insight and new information. Nobody wants to read an article filled with what they already know. The only way to make this happen is to write about what you know better than the average person. Don't worry about how specific the article is. If you don't know much about dogs in general, but you know plenty about German Sheppards, that is what you should write your article on.
Be Patient
When you write your first article, whether it is on love, or kamikaze pilots, it probably will not get many views. This is because you are an unknown writer to the website. As you keep writing about what you know (Doesn't have to be the same subject every time) you will begin to get a following. Through word of mouth and comments, your articles will steadily become more popular, as long as you keep them interesting.
Use Simple, Proper English
When your audience is reading your article, they will not care if you have a million dollar vocabulary. With sites like Triond, if someone has to look a word up, you better believe they are going to the next article. Use the simple word instead of the fancy. On the opposite end of the spectrum, do not use slang that your readers will not be able to read and understand. Once again, this will lead to a quick click back and losing another potential long-time, multi-article, reader.
Have Correct Tags
Make sure that you have good, specific tags that lead to your page. Until your name gets out there, readers will not be looking for you, but an article on the subject you are writing about. Without proper tags, it doesn't matter how great your article is.
Thank you for reading my article, and I hope it will help you in writing your own.
