helium and assosciated content?

You can post your Helium articles to Associated Content, as long as you tell Associated Content that they were published elsewhere, and you can only earn income from page views. I have begun doing this. The other thing you should know is that your name on Associated Content and on Helium must be the same. You can't use SpicySweetie on one and Pat Jones on the other, for example. They must be identical. Helium lets you retain the rights to your article, so I often post mine to Associated Content and sometimes to Gather as well. Hope this clears things up.

Hi Spicysweetie, Helium does not require exclusive rights, so it is ok for you to post the articles to AC or elsewhere. If you intend to post the articles to Bukisa, do read the TOS carefully, because Bukisa is using Creative Commons License. So if you intend to post there, make sure you select the no-Syndicate, else you will find your articles download by bloggers worldwide.

No, although they do like you to post to Helium first. The only stipulation would be that you could not use the article for a marketplace submission. Those are exclusive. It also depends on which option you choose for AC. If you picked from the non-exclusive options, than you are fine. Just don't submit if you choose for AC to own the rights than you would be in violation of copyright laws.

www.helium.com//content/tos The link to Helium TOS. Although, I don't see where it specifically says you can't do that as long as you own the copyrights. But make sure you read it for yourself and if you have any questions shoot an email off to help@helium for a more specific answer.

I would not know if this is against the rules. I tried writing for helium last year and I never made any money for my efforts. I guess I will just stick with the discussions on mylot. Cheers!!

No you may not. You can only post links directing to your Helium article. Sorry, I can't paste the statement. Just look at the TOS - Site Usage Requirements - Non commercial use/no distribution.
