The Quality Quantity Conundrum
The Quality Quantity Conundrum
The eternal quandary faced by all writers is the one of priority. Is quality more important than quantity, or is it the other way round? As far as I know, no one has yet published a mathematical formula to get us all out of the fix. Everyone has to decide for themselves, accordingly. And you can always blame google if your articles don't find any readers.
The answer is one of balance. You have to find the way to balance across an abyss on a tight rope. If you are too finnicky about what you publish, you will never reach the other side; if you are too sloppy, you'll slip and fall down. A picture that comes to mind is from Dr Doolittle: The push-me-pull-you embodies how you have to harness the two opposing forces in your writing life.
It depends, too, on who you are. I am not a native English speaker. I sometimes marvel at the speed with which some writers are able to push out articles. I do have to go a bit slower to avoid as many mistakes as possible. Others might have even more problems with English and would have to go even slower about publishing anything. Your speed is only for you to decide, and don't try to compare it to others' output because basic circumstances might be very different from yours.
Don't stress yourself to publish an article before you think it is ready. Don't dither over it on the other hand. If you have made a mistake in it, you may always claim that you did as the Amish do: Only God is perfect, and therefore a mistake has to be included in any work.

Writing for Money Where the Money is
Writing for Money Where the Money is
Writing your own blog has it's advantages. Nobody tells you what you should write about, and generally you are free to do or not do whatever you like. That includes publishing exactly the pictures you want, rather than what the publisher is expecting.
It has the drawback that no one will tell you it something is really bad. This can mean badly written as in grammar and style, or just plain below the radar. And you might miss the point of your article, or miss the pictures that will really interest people. Hits will tell you that, though. But not everybody has to like every picture you put up.
Writing for Triond is a completely different matter. Triond doesn't publish on a single page address unlike a blog. It runs several sites that are dedicated to certain themes like science, creative writing, religion, society, and what not more. Articles get sorted into these publishing sites and get published there. The different sites have different search page rankings. And different pages have different payment amounts coming your way.
Triond states that it is splitting its income from the views with you 50/50 without giving any closer details. But after some time you will notice that there are sites run by Triond that are at best a waste of time for you. Don't bother to post any pictures on Triond's piccable page, for instance. They don't even make a penny a piece.
All Triond's publishing pages show changing results over time. That makes it impossible to tell you which one is the best paying one at any time. But there is a trend in the results you get for your views. The worst paid site is relijournal. If one of your articles gets shunted there, try to have it relocated elsewhere. If they don't, delete it, rewrite it completely, then republish it under a new title.
The other site you should avoid at all cost is authspot where creative writing gets its say. If you deal in creative writing, then there is not a lot to complain about, but if the article was just moved there on one of Triond's whims, try to get it relocated. If this is declined, follow the steps recommended above. If you deal in creative writing, though, you might just want to look out for a better paying publisher.
