Here are four tips for online writers to optimise success and earnings.

Organise your articles

When you have been blogging and writing articles for some time it might be a good idea to categorise them. Write the titles of similar topics on a list and write behind them to which websites you have sent them to share with other users of the Internet. It is very easy to get lost in all the submissions you have made. Which have been sent and which haven’t.

Make a separate list of each site and add the article’s you’ve sent. You can do this by using the spreadsheet option on Microsoft Office, this will allow you to organise the list in alphabetical order. Having the lists in alphabetical order makes it easier for you to see which article has been sent where.

This might look like a lot of work, but once you have the system into place it will save you time and this time you can use to write and promote new articles. There are many sites available on the Internet and it very easy to get forget where you have been promoting your stuff. Some of them like Redgage offer revenue via adsense and adbrite, so you can improve your income via these outlets.

Making money with your articles is a dream that many writers share, however this is not as easy as it seem. only a few people do earn a decent amount of money, the rest is just earning petty cash. There are plenty of sites that are willing to place your articles for free and give you a few cents per so many clicks. Reddit and stumbleupon are two sites that will gain the most views for me. Things become more interesting when you also receive revenue for advertisements placed beside your articles. Revenue earns you a lot more than you get for the views on the articles alone.

Networking

In order to promote your articles and so to improve your income it is important that you build up a net work around you. It takes time to build up a net work and you mustn’t underestimate the essence to build and maintain relationships on the sites where you have posted articles.

Quality of articles

It is needles to say that the quality of your articles is important as well, if you have historical or other facts in your articles make sure they are authentic and refer to the original author and piece. Keep your article tidy and neatly arranged with clear sub-headings; this will make it easier for the readers to read the article. It also gives them the opportunity to read only these parts of the article that are most relevant for them. For the article to be more successful it should be minimal 400 words and have no spelling and grammar mistakes. Nevertheless, don’t let the above tip keep you from writing, if the topic of an article interests a reader, he or she will not mind when there are a few spelling mistakes; however this will diminish the quality of the article.
