If you are writing articles and stories for Triond, there are steps you can take to increase article exposure and boost earnings.
Write it! Writing For Triond
If you are writing articles and stories for Triond, you'll want to make sure that you maximize the experience, capitalizing on the time you invest in your submissions.
How do you do this?
It is important to use keywords in your title, as well as in your subhead and in your article body. My article Alternative Treatments for Anxiety earned 2978 page views its first month out of the starting gate, which translated into a pay rate of approximately 28 cents per word. And this was just in one month!
Pictures
It is a good idea to include photos with articles you write for Triond. This presents two advantages: at certain bookmarking sites, you can select a picture from your article which is available to readers, who will see it and be more likely to click on the link to the article; as well, pictures in your article body illustrate your main points, adding eye-appeal. Readers will be inclined to spend a longer time on your pages, which ultimately means they will be exposed to the advertising on those pages.
Check out this article with a picture of an African Grey parrot and then try to imagine the article sans the photo. As you can see, adding pictures to your Triond articles is a win-win situation.
Where can you get pictures?
