How to Organize Your Triond Articles
Sometimes you can get lost in the middle of so much letters, see how to make sense of nonsense articles inside your computer.
Some people write dozens of articles to Triond every week and then they upload it all at the same time. The only problem is how to organize all your documents in a way you can retrieve anything you want later for revision or publish.
After trying many ways I believe that offline tools are the best ones for this case since you can enjoy top speed edition and access even when the connection goes down. Create three folders: one will be called “To Write” where you will save all the documents with the Titles only; another one called “To Publish” where you will store all the documents you wrote but didn’t publish yet, and finally another called “Waiting” where you will save all the documents you are still waiting to be reviewed. If you delete your documents after Triond publishes them then you need no other folder but if you want to keep them for later edition you need to create a fourth folder called “Already Published”.
The first stage of article writing is the title. What works best for me is thinking about many things to write about and then creating the titles for the documents. This way I don’t have to think again every time I want to write another article, I just have to open the folder and pick a title to write about. Once you write the document you save it in the folder “To Publish”. Don’t just publish the article as soon as you write it, wait until you have plenty of articles to publish at the same time. It’s faster to publish a lot of articles in just one try than to open your browser and Triond website every single time you finish another article. When you finally publish all the articles from the Folder “To Publish” you need to move them to a folder called “Waiting” to see if they are going to be published.
There is another way that is using only Triond Online Editor tool. Now with the new feature called To Revise you don’t need offline tools anymore since Triond manages all your content for you and stores it online too even the ones you don’t finish right way in the tab called Draft. Like I say in other articles, online tools are usually very slow but here on Triond they use very fast servers and their website is specially designed to be light for what I can see, there are no complicated scripts and images to make things worse. So the process goes like this: You create a title for it and then you save it in the Drafts, then once you finish the writing process you just submit it and then you just wait to see the result, if it’s approved you can edit it later using the edit button, if it’s rejected you just have to revise it.

You should also back up your files onto discs if you can. It’s always helped me.

Good tips. I have my articles on flash drive in folders and backed up similar to your suggestion. I also have a folder for unfinished articles. When I want to write an article quick I can dig through my unfinished work to find something to finish quick.
Nicely written, Redburn.

Good piece. I always write my articles first in Word or iMac, then download it to Triond.
Thanks,

Very interesting Redburn. Each of us have our own system. I don’t believe I am as computer savy as you seem to be. So, I use some of the ideas you presented: Like the files of titles of potential articles, work not yet published, etc. But I also back up everything pulished on a disc, as well as hard copy.
I like the tip of saving articls to submit until you have several ready…but this doesn’t aways work for me, as I can’t devote myself to writing full time as yet….so as it may be weeks between one article and the next, there isn’t any sense in waiting to make money under these circumstances.
My best to you now and for the new year.

Great Idea,
At the moment whilst i’m not writting that much I have a document called ‘triond article ideas’ as i have ideas i write them down and then later on when i have time i sit down and write the articles, and if whilst i’m writting i have another idea, it is very easy to write it down and this makes time to write more because it don’t have to keep changing files.
