What is Helium?

Who are our writers? People like you who might have a career in marketing but know more about killing crabgrass than anyone else. People who work in the post office but have raised five honors students. Ex-teachers who love to write and writers who love to teach.

We’re not a blog or a collection of edited encyclopedic listings. We are a vast resource of experience-based knowledge, wisdom and creativity. We welcome a variety of voices and opinions. Above all, we’re a community serious about writing articles of lasting value.

Our writers are also our editors. Every article that comes to Helium is rated by other members using our proprietary peer review technology. Through our fair, trusted and democratic rating system, each article submitted to the site is ranked against competing articles, until it’s placed in its proper position based on its quality.

What’s more, our best writers earn! Helium shares a portion of its revenue with those who share the most and the best with us.
