Contest Results: Announcing the 10 Runners-up!

Hats off to 10 outstanding Triond authors whose articles gained impressive page views.

When I held my recent author contest, I promised I would publish another article detailing the top 10 writers who had also achieved impressive page views for their articles at Triond.

My contest has now closed. The winner of King of Content was Nelson Doyle. In a recent interview, he discussed factors that make articles popular with online readers.

Right behind Nelson were a number of authors who have worked hard to gain an online following and to increase their page views. These authors should also be recognized for their hard work. Their articles pulled in impressive page views.

  • Before I list the top 10 authors, I want to take a moment to thank everyone for taking the time to enter the contest. The support was terrific and to everyone who entered: you are all winners! By taking the initiative to enter, you showed you are working hard to grow as an author and be part of the Triond community.
  • I would encourage newer and seasoned writers to study these 10 articles to identify factors that made them popular with readers and then to create future articles using what you have learned about online articles that attract a wide audience.

The following is a listing of the Top 10 Triond Authors whose articles garnered the most page views, as self-reported. The 10 writers have done tremendously well in their efforts to write compelling and interesting articles that resonate with readers.

My congratulations to 10 Triond Writing Superstars.

    BTW, I can’t submit comments on your page with my triond credintals for some reason it won’t accept them. It keeps saying to input a valid email address. There is no option for this when I check “I am a Triond User”.

    It is my hope that this article will serve to drive more traffic to these 10 articles. I’ve announced the 10 Runners-Up over at Write and Earn a Living and am hoping some traffic comes in from that, as well.

    Congratulations, to Louie Jerome, B Nelson, Nobert Soloria Bermosa, R J Evans, Anne Lyken Garner, Darlene McFarlane, Sidney Hazelton, Eddiego65, Evis T, and Ianne, for their most deserving accomplishments in the online writing community.

    If truth be told, these writers have been as much of an inspiration to me as some have kindly said about me to them.

    Anne Lyken Garner was one of the first Triond writers who welcomed me to the Triond community and taught me the power of using online social bookmarking sites to introduce our articles to an untold of number of new potential readers. This lesson has become an invaluable tool in my marketing toolbox. Thank you, Anne Lyken for greeting me – teaching me and for your beautiful friendship.

    Nobert Soloria Bermosa and R J Evans, are both kind gentlemen who’ve I enjoyed reading for some time now. I have had the honor and pleasure conversing with Nobert and R J, and I’ll tell you a secret…”They are both as nice, intelligent and friendly has they come – online or offline”.

    I do not want to hog up all of the comment space, but I do have something to say about every one on this list and in time – I suspect that a review I will be writing about each of them. They do deserve this honor that Athyln Green has bestowed on them and a Blogger Review is in order, too.

    May God Bless you all with a most successful future.

    Nelson Doyle
