I’ve recently gotten into the whole concept of author updates to let the community know about some of my thoughts and discussions. The community here is a special and great one indeed, as I’ve earned 1,000+ article views from the Triond community alone, which I’m very proud of. Not to mention, Matesgate is proving to be a fun method of making money, along with learning some culture.
First of all, I’d like to thank-you for checking out my first proper update article. I had a bad case of writers block as I had been busy with real life issues and didn’t have enough time to brainstorm new ideas.
Since this is my first update, feel free to comment below on any suggestions. I try to keep my articles creative and non-boring as possible, so if I go into too much depth in topics let me know! I tend to go overboard alot.
With my recently published article, Daring Durians I’ve tried a whole new writing style. I used pictures to grasp a reader’s attention, while making short and simple summaries of each important facts to know about a durian. Seeing it successful, as it’s the main article earning hits today, I may try more styles of that writing in more articles. That technique was heavily influenced by a great writer that I advise you to check out: Tony Leather. Big props go to him.
Other than my picture-rich technique, I’ve become really accustomed and favorable to high quality and amazing formatting in articles. I love it when I have a clean article that is easy to read in a short and quick manner. In this update I’ve played around with different formatting choices and I’ve picked this easy and organized choice.
For now, all I have to worry about is good and proper sentence structuring. Most of the time I hate how a sentence I type turns out, and hope to change that real soon!
The articles I love the most are heavily influenced in my writing style and topics. Currently, I love:
Not too long ago I published and article about Matesgate. Basically, Matesgate is a social networking site that pays you to be apart of their community.
This month I’ve received my payment of 15 cents, which will gradually increase over time since I just joined last month and don’t publish blogs, pictures, videos, and links all that often that earn you credits. The more credits you earn, the more share of the pot you get to keep.
Matesgate is currently worth $5,000 and is steadily growing into a great community. People all over the world have created an account. It’s a great opportunity for learning some culture.
If you haven’t already, I advise you to join now, or click here to know all about it.
Many Triond writers are curious about other author’s earnings here. While I won’t disclose my full earnings just yet, as I’m trying to see how much further it’ll increase, I can say I am pleased that last month my earnings have quadrupled since previous payments.
All I can say is that after variating writing styles and amping up quality, it does pay off. Remember to promote your article and post it on various social networking/bookmarking sites for full effectiveness. The Triond community here has helped tons and has brought more than 1,000+ article views alone. Big thanks to my friends and fans!

So, I guess you classify the present article as an update. I appreciate your idea of Matesgate. Will try to join.

Very well written. I am also trying to use picture to grasp reader’s attention.

Hmm… picture rich content is always in as long as it caters great audience, provided you are able to gather quality and catchy pictures, good luck!

Congrats man on getting so many views from the Triond community, and the quadrupled earnings! I hope you continue to get more soon! The style you write is quite tidy, and quite a better format than mine. As for pictures, honestly I’m not great at adding pictures that would add to what I am discussing, but they are always nice to see from time to time.

Good for you! Keep it up!

That’s an interesting thought about switching to an image heavy ‘writing’ style. I might have to think about it too. While I don’t really consider myself successful or prolific enough to write an update article, I do enjoy reading them and find them pretty inspirational. Keep them coming!
