After about a month on Triond, a popular publishing site, this is what I had to say about it:
"Triond is an awesome site. They pay you fifty percent of the revenue from any PPC ads that viewers might have clicked.
It's just like a blog on blogger, but there is much more traffic to their sites. You can't expect to make a lot of money, for example, after the first week writing on Triond, I made eight cents. This revenue gets bigger as you write more. The more exposure your articles get, the more people will read your articles, and more people will click on the ads.
I wrote about ten or thirteen articles about random topics ranging from health, to bigfoot, to writing in general. I didn't make much from all that. In three weeks, I made fourty two cents.
But then I wrote something about what to write and what not to write about on Triond.It was called
"Five things you should avoid writing about" It made it to the hot content list. It was so popular, that experienced Triond writers
absolutely hated that article, and me with it. But some people actually liked it. The article was a kind of bust, though. I didn't know what was extremely popular in society and what was not. So I put down some advice about what to write about. I was just typing down some advice about what stuff you should write about. It was only what I could think about out of the top of my head. Nothing more. I just started writing. Little did I know that it would make the hot content list, or that people would hate it.
That one article got me over sixty cents almost singlehandedly. It was amazing, but I don't suggest you do the same. Write these kinds of advice articles only after you have been writing for at least a year. Because if you do, the expert writers are going to do all they can to degrade your work. That article got bad comments like:
'Gravedig. I hate that I read this.'
'You seem to have broken your own rules! You have written about something you don’t know about. 1 month is not long enough to learn all about what works on Triond. As any successful Trionder and they will tell you that there are no certainties and there sre no fortunes to be made. It’s all hard work.. As for Bigfoot and Cell structures, believe it, or not, a good writer can make that interesting and get traffic to it.'
'I like Bigfoot. This article is something you should not write about if you have only been on Triond for one month. How can you know enough to tell everyone what not to do?'
These are some of the harsher comments. And one thing about the second comment. I never said that I was an expert, nor did I tell anyone what to do. I was just giving some advice on how you can get a good article. So what if I have been on Triond for only one month, I have experience writing. I have felt how it is to write about the five things that I have said not to write about. It's not fun at all. And about bigfoot and the atomic structure of acai berry, I was just giving examples of what I wasn't comfortable writing about. Bigfoot can be made into a good article, I admit, but chemistry is something that is meant to be dull and boring. Only another Charles Dickens, or Harper Lee can make that into a great Pulitzer prize article.
I got some good comments ,too, from begginner Triond writers. It was comforting, but the harshness of the other comments hurt. So after a month on Triond, what I have learned is to not write about Triond. At least until a year or two of experience. And I will never do it again."
This is all I had to say about Triond. It's good, but you might have to hear harsh criticism if you write about writing on Triond within your first month.
