How frequently should a Helium number write? My initial reaction to such a question is, "as often as possible!" After all, the more articles you put on Helium, the more money you have the potential of making. This is only true as long as all of your articles have a high enough quality to keep your writing stars up, thus increasing your payment per article.
In the argument of quantity or quality, which one will win?
Whether you write one quality article per month or ten per day for various existing titles on Helium’s great writing platform depends largely on what you are trying to get out of your writing. Many write simply for the pleasure and release it gives them. These writers, depending on skill level and general talents, may produce well-researched masterpieces of literary or journalistic skill.
These articles will accumulate over time and earn an ever-growing residual income for the writer. For these types of content producers, the question, "How frequently should a Helium member write?" is easily answered with a simple statement: "as often as inspiration strikes."
Other Helium writers are more concerned with income than inspiration. While I believe writing in any form takes a modicum of talented craft, building an active stable of hard-working articles earning money for you does not require the muse’s hand.
Writers interested in building a proper income through Helium’s various compensation programs – residual income, upfront payments, contest winnings, and marketplace articles – should write as frequently as they can. Peruse the marketplace daily for titles that stimulate your fancy or that you know a lot about. Get involved in writing for writing contests based on a particular subject or style. And always be on the lookout for interesting headlines for articles you can write with skill.
The decision as to how frequently a Helium member should write is particular and personal to each writer. Writing as often as allowed based on your schedule and abilities is important. Being inspired by a topic or contest assists writers to produce more quality content. Likewise, the lure of great earning opportunities here at Helium can encourage some members to write many articles per day.
After all sides are considered, I stand by my initial reaction of "as often as possible!" However, as often as possible is tempered for each member differently. A pleasant balance of quantity and quality can be reached. Pumping out articles as fast as possible should not come over quality writing. Nor should a writer toil over an article masterpiece forever if the goal is to make some income with Helium.
