Publish0x FAQ 2.png
If you are already familiar with what Publish0x is, how it works and have been publishing here regularly then consider yourself lucky as I strongly believe that your efforts spent here will definitely be rewarded greatly over the coming years. The knowledge you gain while researching for your posts or reading articles by other writers here in itself in invaluable and the BAT & other tokens you receive in the process is just icing on the cake 😊
If however you are new here let me share with you some of the common questions you might have during your initial days here and what in my opinion is the best solution to those queries.
#1. How to Join Publish0x?
First things first, if you are still browsing through this amazing site as an unregistered guest user then stop everything you are doing Right Now! Immediately head to the following referral link and register yourself as a publisher  https://www.publish0x.com?a=zPdyJz7eQr
Registering on Publish0x is really simple as you have multiple options to connect either through your existing Facebook or Twitter ID or registering with email. Either case you will soon receive confirmation that you can start posting articles. I found the registration process on Publish0x much smoother and straightforward compared to other sites like Medium, Minds etc where your application can get lost in the review process for indefinite periods.

#2. What to write about?
Once you get registered and get the confirmation that you can start publishing you will start wondering which topic should you write about. Technically speaking you can write about any possible topic that interests you whether it’s travel, dogs & cats, gaming, romantic poetry or whatever you feel like on a particular day. I will strongly recommend you to focus on writing about topics related to cryptocurrencies and blockchain based projects. This is irrespective of the current level of understanding you have about the crypto field. Of course if you already know a lot about crypto then you will find the sailing smooth here and very quickly gain a large number of followers and can expect high level of tips for all your posts. Even if you are new to crypto take it up as a challenge and research about tokens, projects, apps in crypto space that interest you and write about them. It will surely be a bit hard in the beginning, but I assure you it will get easier if you stick around for a while.
To share my personal experience here I started writing here since Nov 2019 and at that time my knowledge about crypto space was limited to Bitcoin. I started researching and slowly I started enjoying the process. It has been 3 months already and now I have over 100 followers and have received close to 150 BAT in tips for the 25 posts I have published so far. When I started I really had doubts if people would find my articles worth tipping but I feel if you put in the efforts you will surely be rewarded.
Writing about Crypto based topics will give you following advantages:
• Knowledge- With each article you write your knowledge about this field will rise and considering not many people know about this currently you will get a critical edge once crypto gets globally accepted
• Feedback & Tips- As majority of the users in Publish0x are interested in crypto your articles on these topics will get better visibility, higher interaction with other users and more tips

#3. Quantity or Quality?
Once you start writing you will soon be wondering whether you should write few long detailed articles or multiple short articles. Here I will suggest you to curb the temptation to publish too many articles just for the heck of posting something hoping that people will randomly start tipping all your articles and more articles means more money. In my experience 1 well researched and well written article is worth much more than 10 shoddily written articles created in haste, both in terms of the value it adds to the readers as well as the tips you will receive. It will impact you in the long run as well as once people realize you are not putting in efforts in your posts they will not invest their valuable time in your future posts.
Do keep in mind that if you write a long post it should be relevant and not be made unnecessarily long with repetitive and pointless lines.
How many posts should you write per week? There is no standard answer for this and it will vary from person to person and you should try to write the maximum you can manage as much as your free time allows. I try to write at least 1 post per week as during the weekdays I do not get much time but I always take out some time over the weekend to pen down my thoughts and later when I feel the article is in a good shape I publish it. It can be 1 per day for you if you have the time or can be 1 per month if you have a demanding day job and family responsibilities but the key here is to make sure you keep writing and don’t give up midway.

#4. How much should I tip other Writers?
You might be tempted to keep the maximum possible tip for yourself and thank god that Publish0x has kept a 20% limit as minimum for the author else the majority would have taken 100% tips for themselves and the whole purpose of rewarding writers would have become useless. There is no other rule as such and you can tip anywhere between 20% to 100% to the writers but let me share with you my approach.
I normally tip a minimum 30% to the articles I read, 50% if I find something new and interesting and 100% if I find something practical eg. an app I decide to use, a genuine faucet, a token I decide to invest in etc.
You may think this is excessive but let me tell you my rationale. I strongly believe in principle of Karma i.e. what goes around comes around. So if I reward a writer for a well written article then someday my well written articles will get rewarded and the whole community will thrive.

#5. How to use the Dashboards?
The first dashboard basically shows you how many tokens you have earned this month as well as your lifetime earnings. This is straightforward and I will not delve much into it. The other part of the dashboard is what interests me more.

If you look at the statistics above about the my last 5 posts you might think as random earnings for these posts but let me explain you what I learn from these statistics and why you should be analyzing your dashboard too.
A. Experiments- I sometimes write experimental posts about topics which are not crypto based, like you see the post on Contra which is one of my favorite games. It is clear from the statistic that this was a failed experiment both in terms of getting views and tips so most probably I will not be writing similar posts.
B. Token Reviews- My reviews on Cardano and Tezos got average views and tips so I will continue writing such posts as there is some demand if not too much.
C. Random Musing- The post on Bitcoin was about some personal thoughts I had about my interest in BTC. This also was clearly not too successful.
D. User Benefit- The Monero article presented what benefits users will receive by using a secure token like Monero. This clearly received a much better response than other articles
If you keep reviewing which type of writing is received better it will help you improve yourself as a writer.

6. How to withdraw my Earnings?

You will see the minimum threshold for each token type when you can make a withdraw request. It is usually 2-2.2 BAT depending on the price of BAT

I usually wait till I have 50 or more BAT before making a request.

Once you have requested a withdrawal there is a review and the payment is processed the next Monday after the review. During the time since I have joined I never faced any issues in this process.
One benefit of receiving BAT is that much easier to cash out or convert to other crytpos depending on what you want to do.

Hope this helps to get you started here and do let me know if you think I missed any important topic. All the best on your crypto publishing journey.
Cheers,
