A Pat On My Head From The Guys Over At Helium.com – A Good Start For 2009!
Karon Brandt, a community editor over at Helium.com, has gave me a good pat on my head with an email appreciating the majority of my online and affiliate marketing articles and the feeling is extremely good! This can be a good start for the year of 2009! Thank you Ms Karon Brandt!
If you do not know what is Helium.com all about, you can read all about my personal review on how you can start making good money with Helium.com!
What is Helium.com All About?
If you do not want to click through, a brief summary of Helium.com is that it’s an article directory whereby your articles can be rated by other writers and be given a position among others. The higher the ranking, the more exposure you’ll get and you can get rewarded with daily revenue as well! Helium.com is also a marketplace whereby you can pit your writing skills for higher rewards!
Sharing My Personal Experience With Writing Articles Over At Helium.com
In the personal email from Karon Brandt, she commented that I wrote amazingly well as a Singaporean – a foreigner in Helium.com. This is something that I can feel proud of after being breathing for so long! Why? Because I barely pass my English during my college time!
One of my favorite articles entitled: “How To Earn Extra Income Through Affiliate Marketing” is the first article that got me started in Helium.com and is ranked as number #1 among 12 other good articles written by writers who know their stuff.
Thank you to many of the writers who have given me good ratings for this article!
Also another big thanks to those who have made my other articles to be number #1 (till current date of writing…), articles like:
- Do you believe salary has no place in a sales environment?
- The history of affiliate marketing
- How to select an online affiliate marketing program
In My Opinion… What’s the Secret To Writing Good Articles?
Actually when I started writing these articles, there were no secrets! Basically, what I feel is needed are Three General Mindsets:
- You must have a deep Passion in what you are doing – only then you are able to share naturally!
- You must read into what other successful marketers have done – read all the articles they have written or the information guides they have released or in forums they are participating in. Their advice can be wonderful gems!
- You must practice what you have read and understand – practice make you understand better. A piece of information is just words until you relate and appreciate it personally. Make what you have learned from others to personally yours! In other words, Your Own Version!
Then the Three General Technical Aspects of writing Articles are:
- Organize your thinking then your writing. To make your articles alive, you have to be organized. In this manner, your readers can fully enjoy your information in a proper manner and not having to be amazed by information placed all over the article.
- No Holds Barred. If you know your stuff well, share with your readers. If you know 10 good ways to make online from affiliate marketing, write them out. It may take very long to complete that article but your readers will appreciate you 10 times from now!
- Check your spelling and grammar! My aunt used to whack me when I get my Spelling wrong. This became a good writing habit for me. So make it a good habit to check your spelling and grammar after you have written.
There you go! These are the general techniques that I have used to write my articles over at Helium.com. If you are looking for another good source to share your writing and experience in the form of articles, try Helium.com today! You’ll not regret it!
