Okay, this is a big achievement for me. LOL I posted to articles to Helium today. I need to do more I know. I think it is a good start. I am now off to write a couple articles for AC. They will probably be in review for the next month, but at least I am working again. LOL
Are you writing on Helium today?

Boy, did you come to the right place! Since you are from the phillipines you will probably make more money on Helium. Associated Content only pays upfront to US residents, I think. Anyway, sign up on the sites or if you want a link friend request me. After you sign up on AC let me know your penname and I will read your stuff. Every pageview helps. LOL If you have any specific questions please feel free to ask. If you sign up on the sites you just start writing both sites have suggested titles or you can write what you want.

Writing at helium is easy because they have thousands of titles posted that they want articles for. You just browse through them until you find something that strikes you and get started. It is much easier than trying to find something to write about on your own.
What are the subjects you know the most about?

haha, you are so funny! Two articles only and you are jumping up and down! All the writers in Helium are laughing at you oh.
You still need 40++ articles to reach the first 100 articles in Helium. Better write an average of 5 articles per day oh, dont keep on jumping up and down and do nothing!

Hi Mommaj, I rate some Helium articles just now, and came across a title "how to write 20 articles for Helium a day".
Maybe you can read up and learn from there oh. Then you can improve on it, and write about how to write 50 articles for Helium a day. I bet you can cut off the sleeping hours altogether.

20 articles in one day? How is this possible? This person must have some kind of computer software to help to generate these titles. I will have to go and take a look at this article. This person was very clever as the article will certainly get a lot of page views.

Good for you! I need to post some articles on helium and maybe my writing score will stop dipping and climbing daily. They are driving me nuts! I have had something going on every day this week though and have not been able to focus in and write.

I am now up to 108 and my writing score is worse than ever, LOL! I guess I will have to join the others in the pond and start leapfrogging.

Well done - glad you're back in the saddle. I wrote an article yesterday, about whether the world's most expensive restaurants are worth the price tag. I argued on the 'no' side, and it went to the top of the list very quickly, which was nice. It's moving in the top 3 today.
I write more for Helium when there are lean periods on Mylot, but today has been very interesting here. I find that I get most of my Helium inspiration while I'm rating, and I also check out the writing competitions every Wednesday, so I'll be there tomorrow.

I joined Helium about 40 days ago, and I have 30 articles there already and have two writing stars too.
However I found my writing score is a little down. I worry one of my stars will disappear. I do need do more work to leapfrog a couple of my articles so I can keep my stars.
I really feel happy for what I got on Helium. at beginning i was worried my english, now i can say i settle down on the site.

Oh, congratulations! I personally am very interested in Helium and other websites where I could publish my articles. I do need to get published to make extra money to pay for school. Anyways, it is always a great pleasure to know that other people will read my thoughts.

Good for you. You have to have a lot of material with all those articles over on Associated Content. Helium is calling out to you! This week I was mostly writing for AC (those Call for Content articles), but I did manage a couple of articles for Helium, too. I have endless book reviews I can post to Helium, but I try not to bombard them with all my new titles.
I love to write about travel, and at Helium, you can write endless travel articles about a single place. Lately I have been on a kick about writing on Rome. It's a beautiful city that I visited several years back, and I have endless things to say about it. On Helium, I can just go on and on. On AC, I can't get a single thing published unless it's just for page views (whine whine).
I am still trying to get to 300 articles on Helium. If I ever make it, I am going to have a celebration! (Don't even get me started on what would happen if I made $30 a month in page views...lol!)

I have so many articles on ac that I could submit to Helium. It's just getting the time. I noticed it should be a little easier to up the page views on AC. It seems that this is the season the readers come back. They leave again in the spring, but that's okay. If I can get the page views now, the page views will continue coming with new readers. Right? That's my theory anyway. LOL
I think you can get your 300 articles on Helium. Don't feel bad about flooding them with new titles. That's what they actually want. That's why they give the $1 for new titles. Good luck.

Hi Art, did you check on the keywords before you write travel articles?
Sometimes a single set of keywords can draw in targeted audience.
I think Mommaj can write about living in caves. I heard that there is a big cave in Kentucky or something. One horrifying and endless row of cave. Mommaj can write about "how to fried chicken wings in cave", while Art writes about "how to fool the pickpickets in Rome."
