Think of Helium as a co-op — we’re all stakeholders. We provide the publishing platform and the marketing investment to attract writers, readers and advertisers, while the community — that’s you — writes, rates and moderates the site. For all your efforts, you share in a percentage of Helium’s revenue.

Helium pays members based on the value of each article, which is based on a combination of three market factors:

1. Article quality: The best-written and highest-ranked articles earn the most money. Why? Because quality matters. Those ranked at the top will be read more often and are considered more valuable to Helium members, readers and advertisers.
2. Traffic: How many readers are interested in the article’s topic? Some subjects draw more total viewers than others. Topics and articles with more page views earn more money.
3. Advertiser interest: Some topics have higher-paying advertisers or more buzz than others. Each topic attracts a unique set of advertisers with varying budgets. For example, subjects in the area of personal finance will generally draw a higher ad rate than subjects like chess.
