How to write an article for Helium.
How I did it: I came across Helium by chance and as I am currently trying to make a bit of money online I decided to publish an article entitled Book Reviews: After Dark, by Haruki Murakami, in order to see if anything came out of it.
Somehow Helium decided to add punctuation and extra letters to my title, such as the comma after Dark and called it 'Reviews' instead of review. I know this was not an error on my part as I spell-checked beforehand.
Also formatting was transferred across and is shown at the top of the page. The reason why I mention these things is because I have not yet found a way to edit them out.
Anyway, I am still waiting to see if anything comes out of it as I only published the article the other day. Hopefully at the very least I will get some writing advice and maybe even some praise from it. If this happens I will probably be submitting more articles to Helium, but only when I get to know the site and the way it works better.
Lessons & tips:
- Spellcheck your articles before you post them.
- Make sure your articles are at least 400 words in length as this is a requirement.
- Try to come up with a new title not written on before as this will add further depth to the information found on the site
