How's Everyone Doing with Helium So Far?

its funny, i get to the helium orange page and then i cant go any further, i guess i need a hacker for that or what. i would though like to write some things there. i signed up about 2 weeks ago. maybe they were repairing or something, like shop closed for repairs come next week. i shall try soon again. apple.

I think it'll be good and godly if you could define what helium is and what it's all about. maybe some of us don't know what it is and if known may like to join. isn't it?

What is it? I am not aware. Please tell.

I am not doing much of anything to promote the few Helium articles that I've written, but there is one little poem that is doing rather well. I have earned more from it than from all the articles I've written for Triond and Helium put together. I thought nobody would like it and I hesitated to even put it on Helium. Now I'm thinking I'd better write a few more to submit.

I try to write something once a week. I'm up to 21 articles. My recycling article is doing the best. I'm only around 2 dollars. My name is the same there as it is here. Take care

I have made very little by the time, but have to motivate myself to do much more work.I hope maybe later my earning will increase.

I don't know about helium. what is it ? what do have to write and how much do they pay ? pls PM me the details/ reply here. thanks.

As I noted earlier in this discussion, it is possible to reach payout and get money from Helium. I got my first $25 and am on my way to the second payment. I get lazy and don't write for awhile, so I probably could be earning more if I would step it up. I also write for Gather and for Associated Content, so I use the different sites for different types of writing. Helium is good in that I don't have to think of the topics. I write what they suggest (when I know something about it of course). The way to bump up your earnings is to do the contest. (They don't have any at the moment, but they do run them pretty often.) Even if you are not the top winner (I won $5 a few times), the extra bump in earnings makes it that much quicker to payout. Good luck with your writing at Helium!

I have 24 articles there at Helium and earned about $5.46 so far. I didn't do any promoting, nor have I have any referrals. For a while, I didn't write anything, then I jump in, writing 3 articles for the contest for the last 3 weeks. I told myself not to think about winning, just write. I can't spit out 10-15 articles a week like others. Keeping in that perspective, I just write what I like. However, you do have to rate other articles too, if you want to see any activities in your earning.

I've heard about this site before, maybe in one of your discussions? Well, I'm not doing well nor bad as I've never visited the site! Hahaha! I should check it out soon though, as you seem to be very satisfied with it. Good luck!

The last time I submitted an article to Helium was around May. I have no intention of posting any more. I personally think it's a hell of a lot of work for little money, and I'm glad I came to that realisation sooner rather than later. Good luck to those who continue to persevere.

Oh, I am so envious of you because I've only earned like USD5 so far for my 60+ articles! How long did it take for you to get to USD7 with 8 articles? I'm sure it must have took ages....I'm definitely enjoying writing there, even though at times I have to leave writing on helium for more important things I have to do, such as studying for uni exams and stuff. Like you, I have been slacking a bit lately but since now is post-exam period, I will be posting articles more regularly and I plan to compete in the current Channel Champions contest as well. It's a good thing that helium runs these contests because it's a fast way to earn side income; better still is that it's weekly... =)
