Wow. I never thought it will be that hard to earn money using triond.com. I've written 21 posts for the month of September and considering I only joined triond mid-September, that means I wrote about 2 posts a day. Now, I am only getting $1.14 for all that. I am a bit disheartened. But I will continue writing, but will not expect a lot from triond. Do you think my earning will improve this October? :(

Hi Stuckonu, I think you did not know how search engines work.
You cannot expect instant result from article writing.
If you publish your article today, it takes anytime from a day to a week for the search engines to index and rank your content.
The common trend is to get the new article right on top of search result page, and then re-rank almost immediately.
It takes a few weeks for the article to climb up the rank again.
That depends on your linking effort, and your promoting effort.
When you write online, you have to think very long term.
Have at least five years in view, if not ten years.
If each article can earn 2 cents a month, that means you will earn $2.40 in ten years' time.
That will be the lifetime earning of the content.
Never take the first month earning as the real earning.
If you continue at this rate, you will find that the earning snowballs every month.
After a year of consistent effort, you can earn $10 a month even if you stop writing for a few months.

Hi Stuckonu, I think you have not learnt anything about seo techniques in writing articles yet.
You have to do keyword research before you write anything.
The most basic thing is to choose one important keyword or keyword phrase for the article.
If you are writing about a person, for example, Obama, you have to decide whether to use his full name or just the first and last name or the title, as in President Obama.
Once you have decided on it, stick to it, and do not change.
Try to keep it to 3% keyword density.
That means for every hundred words, the term appears three times.

I think that's already good income, since you only worked for 2 weeks. How many page views did you have to get that amount?
I only have 2 articles and a trickle of page views, so I guess it will take me forever.
Those articles you've written in September, they will still generate income when someone views them, so 1.14 isn't really bad. You'll still continue earning in the months to come.

If you're getting $1.14 in a month from Triond, that is already very good and for only 21 posts. I wrote 49 articles in my first month and I got just a little over $2. And that is because there was a bonus on the month that I first started to write for Triond.
Be patient. Your articles will continue to earn you money. And it will accumulate. Just keep writing and never give up.

it is good that you have earned such money through that. it is better for you to concentrate on this site and you can earn more money in short time instead of writing tons on other websites.

Yes I agree, I actually earned a lot higher here in mylot than in triond. But I will continue writing because I really want to become a blogger. I'll do it for free anyway so why not if I earn a couple of dollars? I'm just surprised because I'm expecting a little bit higher.

I'm also a member of Triond and I agree that it's kinda hard to get viewers or readers of your articles. I have not earned anything from there actually but I would like to explore it more when I have more time to write articles. 
Good luck! 
Good luck!
