HELIUM
We pay for articles based on the value of their contribution, determined by three market drivers: (1) Higher-ranked articles earn more money than lower-ranked articles. (2) Some subjects draw more total views than others. (3) How much will advertisers pay to advertise on the subject?
These three factors are combined to calculate members’ earnings for each of their articles. Remember that having a couple of articles will mean slow earnings. The way to maximize the potential of earnings is to have as many good-quality articles as you are able to type, since this increases your possibility to earn money. And all you need to qualify is one rating star!
But there’s more! Qualified writers writing to qualified channels can now earn Upfront Payments. Looking to start your freelance career? Helium’s Marketplace offers opportunities to earn from $20 to $200 for selected articles! Every week, we partner with new publishers, so check back often. And be sure to try one of Helium’s many Writing Contests for friendly and lively competition among members for weekly prizes.
