Ooops...not a clue--sorry While one doesn't get paid for posting short stories there, fellow writers will critique your work... http://www.zoetrope.com http://www.editred.com The first is the website of Francis Ford Coppula...he has The Virtual Studio where you can not only post stories but photos, a bit of everything there..but alas, like I said you don't get paid..but at least you get feedback for your work

Helium doesn't really pay out for most people ... try looking around for Helium.com articles NOT on Helium for more info (like on allsux.com, blogcritics.org, associatedcontent.com). Also try using keywords like fraud, scam and scandal.

Don't worry about the questions; I had all the same questions when I first started with Helium too. No, you don't get paid for rating others' articles; however, the more you rate, the more your articles come up for review, so it does pay off in an indirect way. The more views your articles get, the more likely your article is to raise in the rankings.

You do not get paid for rating.The more you rate,the more will your articles be rated.This way your articles will get the rank it deserves.This is how the system works.

You don't actually get direct payment for rating articles, but that is how YOUR articles rise in ranking - thus indirectly earning you more money. The more articles you rate, the more your articles are rated. If you don't rate others articles, yours will not be rated either. Hope that made sense.
