Writing Articles

I have been submitting articles on line for the past month now. I usually go to Helium or Constant Content. Helium will have a few buyers listed who want articles for certain subject matter and will set price for the article they choose. Can be anywhere from USD24 up to USD32. Not bad if you get chosen. My articles have not been chosen but have been absorbed by Helium.

Now Helium has a ratings system where by other authors on the site evaluate your work. So far I have submitted 4 articles and one article I was rated 14 out of 16 submitted and 1 out of 6 articles that have been submitted. Another article I am the only one who submitted an article so that makes me numero uno. Hahaha. Yesterday I submitted another article so have not checked to see how I was rated.

When your article is used by Helium they have a pay per click system meaning that every time someone reads your article you get 1 cent. So far I have 1 cent.

Now over to Constant Content. I have submitted numerous articles and every time I have been rejected, reason being grammar and punctuation. Now it infuriates me because the articles I have submitted are pretty well written not perfect but certainly better then some of the other crap I see submitted by other people on that sight. Sometimes I feel like going into their forum and screwing them up and down, don't, because I do not want to get kicked out just yet. At least not until I find another good site I can submit my articles to other then Helium.

So I shall go through all my articles, and proof read them again, to see if I can spot the faults. If not I should send them to my daughter Jade who I sent to college to study Mass Com. Maybe she can spot the faults. I shall keep on writing and hope I can make more then 1 cent.
