Which do you think is better to write articles or blog?

They're both good. Blogging is more of a long-term prospect and involves a lot more individual work - not just writing but traffic, site maintenance, marketing and so on. On average, it takes a blog between 6 and 9 months to garner enough popularity to bring in decent traffic. Writing articles for revenue share is similar - the more content you have, the more you earn, so it's a long-term thing. Writing on demand brings in more money short-term but it's all one-off payments so you never have any residual income. Personally, if I had the time I'd do both (and try to). That way you have both short- and long-term income.

If you want to have a direct upfront payment. There's no doubt that Mylot is the place. Isn't it cool writing things you love and you get compensated to it? But there's also good site s out there like Helium and Factoidz. You write an article, then if it's approved, you get compensated either by upfront payment or passive income everytime someone views your article. The only Challenge is they have very high standards when it comes to submission of articles. Triond is also a good site and is lesser strict when it comes to submissions of article.

To me, blogging is better than writing an article. Blog is just something comes out of our mind and we can write anything, but article is a formal format of writing which should be more specific, accurate and professional, but in blogs, we just can write anything, I prefer blog to article

I mainly enjoy writing articles, because I earn more, but I do get some traffic with my blog so both are good, I just earn more on articles than blogging.

blogging pays off more in the long run, but it will take a lot of hard work to get a group of dedicated people to view your blog. Articles are a bit easier, in my opinion.

Hi Dominique25. I prefer blogging on the long run. If you put up a nice blog with valuable contents, it will gain more readers to your blogs. Though you will only see the result slowly, it will gradually increase after sometime. When doing a blog, it is as if you are your own boss. You are not required to submit the article before the deadline, you are not required to type a specific number of words in your article. In fact, you can write what is on your mind in your own words and no one could stop you. Writing articles would give you more money in a short time. However, blogging is like an investment. If you have a good contents, you are able to earn more than writing articles.

I like writing articles, but also blogs. I also like writing hubs and I just celebrated my fourth year writing them! They let you be creative and they don't place much limitations on the topic you write about. HubPages is constantly trying to improve the site and it is always bringing out new surprises!

Blogging and writing articles are almost the same thing. I like them both since I got to earn from both. The important thing is that you get an online work as a freelancer or have your own website to earn well.

Certainly article better than blog, because article is more complete and clear from blog. Blog is just short write which is made based on a person's knowledge. If you can write article with good, of course your article is more valuable and have a sale value.

I prefer writing articles because it is a secure and instant income source. you can start seeing results from it from the first day you post it. Unlike blogs, where you have to wait at least one year, do great effort and give it a lot of dedication to see it giving results.

Yes, dear mate you are right in my opinion also. Writing articles give us quick money than blogs but it is also very important to make blogs and write articles there. The blogs also make money slowly but more than quick money from articles writing.
