RE: Trinidad, Cuba: Two faces of a city. A photo documentary.

in #travel7 years ago

Exactly. That was my issue. Several months ago, now I do some post on occasion that take several hours and they usually pay me more too. Getting started is the absolute hardest part. I played around with a lot strategies, then came to a conclusion of about 3-6 paragraphs with 10-20 photos, and several different numbered themes. It has really worked well for me. Feel free to take do a similar thing of your own if you feel that is right for you. My average post takes about 30 minutes to an hour to put together from start to finish now. The absolute worst was doing a a 4 hour post for 37 cents. That happened to me more than once, several months ago.

This sounds like a great plan. I have already published two posts about Cuba, so I might just name the third post Two faces of a city #3. Numbered themes also seem like a great way to bring consistency into the Blog and attract regular readers. Thanks for the tip!

I am about to finish my next post about Cuba and it has 13 photos and about 1.300 words. Also, the post is pretty much about New Year's Eve, so it might not work to publish a second part at a later date.
Would you still recommend splitting it into two posts?

So I decided to publish the full post now, I just hope I didn't just waste New Year on a post worth only a few cents in the end! Well, at least it is shorter than this post about Trinidad..

Since I have started my theme Two Faces of a City with a lot of information and photos on my first two posts, I will keep doing this for this theme, but I will try splitting my next post in two parts anyways.
Also, I will soon be starting with other numbered themes that will take less time to create.
