Learn the fundamentals and publish now and then

You are probably one of the writers who snoop into the writing portfolio of the greats on this platform. There are no secrets. Every hack is in the open. You must execute it to check what system works for you. If not, change the routine that you do.

The opportunity to scale your earnings on this platform will be achievable in two ways. First, have a trending article that would hit huge figures or be consistent by writing quality articles and publishing more of them every period.

I have no single article that was a hit — but I am sharing some of my engaging articles that made me money until this very day by publishing more often.

Not your usual relationship article

I wrote Going Out for a Massage Is Not Always a Bad Idea last September 2021. It got more than 1,000 reads with a read ratio of 46%. The article got some hate. On the other hand, it proves that readers are into controversial stories about love, sex, and relationships.

Business Ideas — Anyone?

Last August 27, 2021, I wrote How To Source Business Ideas Like A Pro. It is for readers who want to start something but have no idea where to begin in launching a business. It got a lot of views — but the read ratio is only 21%. Despite the low rate, it still earned me neat money.

Money Articles Never Grows Old

I wonder what happened to the Live Your Life On Purpose publication. They stopped publishing articles during the early month of 2021. As a new writer back then, I was accustomed to writing life stories. It is one of the publications that friendly accepted my stories as a new writer.

Despite the publication being inactive, my article 6 Money Lessons I Have Learned Before Turning 40 is one of my evergreen content that still keeps earning money. It got 1.5k reads to date at a 51% read ratio.
