Making 10.08 Dollars on Triond

A brief analysis of a real case study (mine) which could help other writers.

Finally I made 10.08 $ on Triond . I have more then 100 articles and my views have crossed 5000 and i must be on my way to get the 10,000 badge. Congrats to me ! These 10.08$ came a lot late as i have not been active for a while as i had writing assignments and content projects piling up. The good thing about Triond is that you keep on earning even while you are not active through your old entries. So those enthusiast who seeks a hefty income once they reach one million articles are not truly wrong but lets not jump into the impossibility of that right now!

I am presenting some facts which might help other writers and also enable them to device proper plans if their prime purpose is to earn from Triond. 

Listing my Top Ten 

These are the articles that have been viewed a lot and has generated some money. My brief analysis for them might help those who seek to make a fortune using Triond.

10 Most Ridiculous and Weird Jobs!!!   (515 Views $1.17)

This article ranks # 1 on my list. I actually thought of this one working at my ridiculous job. This hit close to home to search engines and search seekers. Try to build on similar articles. 

The Top Songs of Suicide  (489 Views $0.87)

This one gets viewed to this day. In fact not a day goes by when this is not on the todays listing. I wrote it while i was searching Google for suicide songs and felt that this topic would get hits.  Try to browse search engines for hit topics which are fairly simple to write and the world seem to be after them.

Top Five Songs to Die for  (455 Views $0.72)

Another entry on the same line . Experimented the bit on death songs and it was still working. Could have continued with the trend of death and suicide songs but my understanding was complete so moved on.

Top Ten Things to Do When You Know You are Going to Die  (212 Views $0.43)

Apparently death is a subject most searched on. However this came in as a random post and had no intention to work it for views.

How Old is Planet Earth?  (331 Views $0.38)

This one I did on purpose. I wanted to check how can a fairly small topic can generate many views. This took me five minutes to write. And it got the most views the very first day !  What I feel is that those writers who want to build on volume to make earning should opt for such similar topics which are short informative and catching rather then there daily ramblings. A 100 such entries would get them more views then 1000 entries of how they are going to make money and how much they earned a day.

Four Reasons Why We Procrastinate  (431 Views $0.28)

Nothing special about this as i wrote it with no real meaning but some good reasons that might help few.

Making Million Dollars From Triond  (437 Views $0.27)

Played the name game and added a bit of humor in it. I knew the name alone would get views and that worked. So cash on names but rest assure the readers are smart. If they hate what they read the name alone wont work for long!

Evil Women  (115 Views $0.26)

This one had loads of text and less views. If you compare it with How Old is Planet Earth?  then you can realize that earning and views are more dependent on planing then on what you are writing.

Honeymoon: Do’s and Don’t Do’s  (152 Views $0.24)

A fun topic i wrote. The Do and Don’t  seem to work well with audience so try to cash on the keyword

Time Management Mistakes  (224 Views $ 0.24)

Another article which is a bit hit on Google and i wrote it to test its strength.

TOP 3 FOR TODAY 

The Top Songs of Suicide 7
10 Most Ridiculous and Weird Jobs!!! 4
Super Humans with Super Abilities 3

As you can see even after months The Top Songs of Suicide  is still ranking at # 1. This topic of suicide just wont die !

The Triond Writers

At Triond we have a weird assembly of writers. No one tells how much they earn other then those (including me) who makes cents a day. This is where the Triond system should intervene and declare at each month end the top earners of the month and their total earning. Not only this would help project Triond to more market but would also inspire other Triond writers. But the top earnings and top earners remain hidden on this system which raises an interesting theory that earning is not a strong point of Triond to begin with.

Few writers here are so talented that i find it hard to believe that they are making use of Triond for earning. Even if these writers claim they are making good money from Triond they can make 100 times more with their skills. Are these writers really stupid or detached from the online writing market? My answer is probably not and they are using Triond along with many other projects.

A majority of writers are rambling here with no directions. They want to earn money but have no idea how to go about it. Piling up articles wont help and most of these writers fade away with time. 85% writers falls in this category.

So where are we all ?

Writers need to understand that Triond is much more then a paying gig. Its a community where you can meet other people , start new friendships and read very interesting articles. This is the gist of Triond and not Earning . If you are here for earning at least make a logical plan. In the world of writing reasonable writers are charging 0.05cents a word which goes up to 0.30 for a word ! These are pretty smart writers who are cashing in the heaven of writings. Work on Triond but also open your eyes to make earnings.

    Well thanks for the read guys. Let me be honest(i always am about earning and fail to realize why cant others be open about it) i am making 500USD- 800USD a month without writing and keeping those who write very happy.

    I professionally started my career as a content writer and realize the booming impact of writing and its earning potential. Sadly most people are not aware of the math of writings. The same people end up writing for lot less.

    I really cant reveal business secrets here and one should respect that but my suggestion for writers who seek money from writing is to do proper research and start making money.

    Millions of writing assignments are outsourced in my country daily! A very good writer here takes USD3 to write content to a page or two and for the same the US market pays USD15-USD20.

    Make links grab work outsource it , I am telling you if money is your intention you will be happy.

    However it is hard work. You might get away with a lot on triond as its automated but your client wont be and satisfying them and you writers is just a game that you need to master !

    BTW JIMMY SHILAHO I am not leaving Triond I really enjoy reading :)

    Thank you for sharing that news Suhail & well done on reaching $10 plus – no small feat for Triond earnings it seems. I once saw someone say (in the forum that I only visited once, just after joining) that they were earning approx. $400 a month. That inspired me as I joined here to earn, as well as learn from some very talented writers and enjoy their amazing articles. I believe I shared that info with you. I came to the conclusion after a couple of months that it could take quite some time to achieve that. My priorities here have changed somewhat now, it’s the friendships that have become number 1. There are other avenues to be explored & advice (such as yours) to listen carefully to. Very good article.

    “Making friends and influencing people” – to take a leaf out of Dale Carnegie. That is the essence of Triond. And am enjoying it too, as I make a few pennies and cents along the way. Thanks for sharing your experience.
