I write in four areas: true crime, health & fitness, humor and poetry. And I make $ in true crime and that's it. And by money--one article might go semi-viral every two months and I'll make a few hundred dollar a month for a while. An article that went viral six months ago is still paying me more than all all humor, poetry & health combined. The quality of my writing is the same across categories. I write true crime because I like it but I often need a break from murder, violence, and horrible people. I will say health & fitness does slightly better than poetry and humor. When it comes to getting teed off on low quality, read some of the poetry out there that's making money..it's mind boggling.
