If you are a Triond publisher, here are some guidelines and tips that might help you.
I’m not yet a Triond millionaire neither do I boast of extensive experience as a publisher for the Triond website (although I’m not entirely new to website publishing and journalism). In fact, I just started a several days ago and just earned my first few dollars. With the type of results I’m getting, I’m confident that if I multiply what I’m currently doing by a hundredfold, then my income will increase accordingly. There are some tips that will help you (and anyone) to become a successful content publisher, not just on Triond, but on any other site, blog, or opportunity that pays you for contributed content.
Stop posting garbage content. It brings you nowhere – Some people merely write something like “I’m so bored today” or, “I just watched the news and I fell asleep”. You are not paid for self-expression or writing journal entries. You are being paid for CONTENT. When we say content, we are looking for information that generates viewer interest by either being educational, funny, controversial, or anything useful to the readers. SO from now on, make this commitment to yourself as an online publisher: “I will do anything to deliver heavy, quality content to my readers”. And yes,this commitment demands some work afterwards.
For every article posted, think of an audience. – You are not writing for your own reasons. You are writing for your audience. It’s not the articles that produce the income, it’s the people who view, appreciate and enjoy those articles. So in everything that you write, make sure you are doing it to entertain, feed, inform, educate, convince, or preoccupy your audience. If you’re writing about weight loss, make sure you understand what weight loss enthusiasts feel and are going through in life. If you are writing about music, make sure you are contributing useful info for musicians and music lovers.
Don’t believe the “it’s all about quantity versus quality” concept. Some writers believe that what they write or how they write doesn’t matter. What matters, according to them, is the QUANTITY of articles you produce, and that’s enough to earn big cash. WRONG. One article that generates hundreds of views, diggs, comments and revenue is a lot better than 1,000 articles that people barely view and notice. I’m not against submitting lots of content, as long as they are quality content. It must be well thought of. It must be well presented. It must help the lives of the audience.
Make Your Content Keyword Rich. To do this, you have to understand what words or phrases your phrases usually look for in a certain category of interest. For example, in basketball, people would normally look for the search keyword item “Kobe” or Jordan” or “nba finals”. So it wouldn’t hurt if you include these phrases in your article’s keyword list, and in the body of the article itself (that is, if you’re writing about basketball related stuff). Moreover, write about topics that users and readers care and HURT about.
That’s it, I’ve given you four keys to being a successful online publisher. Those are concepts that everyone, including me, must abide with in order to become responsible and successful content publishers in the online information gateway. In my other articles, we will discuss some more topics that concern all Triond writers.

Great tips for all! As a person who has been writing for a long time but still, new to the Triond experience I found myself feeling like I had to churn out SOMETHING everyday. I quickly found that when I forced the writing, the writing suffered. I was fortunate to realize this before I submitted any of those pieces. Well written article here and a must read for all writers and publishers!

I agree. The KEY for success is writing interesting quality content.

Great tips. I write more poems than articles and usually don’t get as many hits. I enjoy writing and while I would love to make more money at it, I write more for my own pleasure.

I would like someone to explain the whole bookmarking thing in a way that makes sense. I have bookmarked everything in site with all the key and adwords. I have not seen a return on my time-consuming investment.
I have made about $70 from Trion in over 2 months, but it is not from outside connections.
Triond member support each other as far as I can tell. At times the worst article gets a lot of views because the author is a nice guy but can’t write in English properly! Often, there are lots of pictures too.
Yet, somehow this person is a Triond Top Writer!
Thanks.
