If you have 1000 articles, how much do you expect of the monthly passive income?

"How To"s should get you pretty consistent views. With 1000 articles, I would say that you should have quite consistent earning.

Hi Strovek, you are right about the consistency of the page views. There is no sudden high or low in the average monthly page views, unless I add in a lot of articles in a month. The only topic that surprised me is about pets. I have just a few articles about dogs, cats and fish. I did not know that the earnings and page views were so good. There are among the highest paid group of articles for me in Triond. I guess I have to read up about the different breeds of dogs and cats, and write an article about each breed.

Hi Sandra, I am targeting about $80 to $100 for 1000 articles in Triond. I think given time for the articles to age, the search engines will send more traffic to the articles. I do not promote the content as well. I love to learn, and I love to write about things I have just learnt. Some articles, surprisingly, did well in term of page views and income. I have never expect my article about my pet fish to do so well. After all, hardly anyone heard of Banjar Red Arowana.

Thanks the information is wonderful and much appreciated!!

hi Scheng You have really mentioned some innovative ideas...yes, innovation is key to suceed with almost anything. Thanks for the great ideas.

Hi Amirev, all these are the ideas I have used for article writing. I have split up one very lengthy company policy into different articles, each sub-heading becomes a title itself. I think with enough determination to write articles, there is no lack of writing ideas.

Hi Amirev777, actually it is not hard even for a person with full time job to do it. The trick is to convert some office documents, emails or memo into an article with certain keywords, so that it becomes an seo article. I have done so with the company policies. Since my boss asks me to review and write the company policies, I use office hours for the research, drafting, etc. Then I come home, and rewrite the same policy, adds in more keyword phrase, delete anything to do with company, so that it becomes a generic policy template. It is just a matter of creativity. I think we can do the same with emails, especially those dealing with customer complaints, so that we do not do double work in research. After all, we use the internet during office hours to research about the right way to write policies, and the right way to write emails, we might as well upload our result for other users to benefit.

Hi Vijayanths, actually the quality of the articles does not matter as much as the subject matter of the articles. Even the best written poem will not perform as well as an average article about stock investing. The subject matter is one of the most important factor in earning money from article online. Another factor is the amount of promotion after writing the articles. Some writers write a few articles per month, but spend more time on promoting the articles, Even when they are not writing, they still spend time on promotion. If you have 1000 articles online, and you stop writing, but focus on promoting, I think the average income will be more than $300 per month.

I see, I see... If you are talking about accumulated page views, that would be accurate. Thanks for the explanation.

Hi Sydney, there are many factors in search engines algo. Two of the factors are concerned with age. The age of the domain is one factor. That means a website that is ten years old is better than a new website. The reason is that the longer-run website is deemed as more trustworthy. The next factor is the age of the particular page in the website. If you have written two articles about the same subject, the older one will get more views. The same concept applies. The older article has more page views, and is deemed as more trustworthy than new article.

sydney, it`s wonderful to get 100 $ a month...is it true/??

Hi 1hopefulman, Triond cannot help us with the seo, since they cannot change our articles for us. For example, you are writing a review of the bible book, Exodus. Then Exodus is your keyword. You have to use it frequently, in the title, the first paragraph and the last paragraph. If the article is about 400 words, make sure that this word Exodus appears at least 12 times, but not more than 16 times. When readers search for information about Exodus, they will read your articles. That is why every article must have a targeted set of keyword phrase. The keyword can be the name of a person, a country, a place, a model number of the latest gadget, the food item etc. The more specific the keyword, the better. For example when writing about your favorite banana, do not just say banana, give the name of the banana, eg Demonte banana.

Yes, I have looked at the keyword search tool? But not the one that shows the CPC. Do you have to buy the tool to see CPC value?

Thanks, you have been very helpful. I had to open an account to get that information but I'm sure it will be helpful in how I write my future articles. My most successful article on how to make friends has of today had 857 hits without any promotion. I want to see if I can write an article that will go beyond 1000 hits without doing any promotion.

Hi Adhyz82, if you have put in effort to write 1000 articles, you would not find earning fifty dollars a month is a lot of money. Most people cannot write 1000 articles in a year. It may take eighteen months or two years or even three years to write 1000 articles. I think I can reach the target of 1000 articles in a year, if I am really focus. I have about 270 articles before reaching the first 1000th article. I joined Triond on 31 May, so that gives me about five months for writing 270 articles. The problem is that I do not have the mood to write every day. It is very tedious to do keyword research, research on information, and then writing the content.

hai scheng...it`s wonderful stories that you are so ambitious in triond..i wanna like you...get many ambition to write and write.. i do know whats the obstacle to be active writer... ya, we always get many bad mood to write everyday...

Hi Alwayzzcitra, if I count only my content in Triond, it is about 740 now. Some of the content are just complaining about life. Most of the articles are how to articles, such as how to reduce fever, how to take care of [certain breed of fish], how to write for money etc. If taking about the number of articles from the time I started writing online, it should be closer to 1,500 articles. I really cannot keep track of the quantity, since i repost the content in websites that accept duplicate content all the time. Some of the most popular articles are former coursework I did in college. I think students studying the same topic are searching for the answers. These did well in term of page views, but not in term of earnings.

scheng, for me, the harddest things is always keep our mood to always write 2-5 articles everyday... it`s hard...writing with a good content everydays is my obsctales

I couldn't agree more with you, scheng1. We can write bunch of articles, but getting people to read and like it is a whole different story. Writing online is about writing what people like, not what you like. And to figure it out sometimes a hit or miss. How many articles have you written so far?

Hi Ebuscat, actually most of us are writing for page views. That means an article written now should continue to produce earnings for the next ten years. That is known as the passive income for article writing. I have an article that earns more than $40 since I posted it two years ago. If I had sold it for $10 at that time, I would not earn from the article. That is why i do not want to sell any article. I do not know when an article can make a hundred dollars for me.

Hi Calpro, I was thinking about an average earning of $80 to $100 for 1000 articles. Some articles definitely do better than others in the long run. Some articles are as good as not written at all, since the lifetime page views never exceed 20. I think if we can earn $80 per month for the next ten years, that will mean a total earning of $9600 for 1000 articles. Each article earns $9.60 over the course of its lifetime. I think that is quite a good rate, since an average article of 400 words takes just 20 minutes of our time. Actually too many people worry about the quality of articles, that is why they never start working. I find that the information in the article is more important than the grammar or the punctuation of the article. Nobody cares if you can spell correctly or use perfect English in writing content. They care only that the information must solve their problems. For example, if I want to find ways to treat headache, I do not care about the missing comma or the misspelt words. I just want a method to get rid of headache.

Hi Mistertickle, that is very close to my estimate. My estimate is $80 to $100 per month, since we are unlikely to promote all the articles to get more page views. Most writers promote the new articles, so that the new content can gain a few hundred page views within a week of publishing. However, once they publish another article, the older content may gain just an average of two or three views per day.
