There's not a lot to see on it, actually. I don't post to it, very often.
I usually gravitate toward free tools that can be made useful - in this instance, choosing to use Blogger as the basis for this particular blog site. One of the reason that I utilize such free tools is to demonstrate that it is possible to do things on a zero budget.

I don't have any set criteria that I use. Normally, something about a project just connects with me, in some way, shape, or form. Articles, such as tip articles, I tend to select something that I think is both relevant and worth underscoring.
Most crowdfunding project creators who launch their projects seem to be people who have not placed a lot of thought into the crafting of their respective project pages. Pressed for time, most gravitate toward quick fixes. My focus is not upon churning out the most tips, but rather, in explaining at length. I try to convey a sense of not just things that are important, but why they are important.
A lot of what undermines crowd funding projects is little more than common sense - once one takes the time to pause and ponder such things at length. I try to focus more upon articles that are useful, than upon making them quick reads.

I have no aversion to such, per se. It's largely a matter of scarcity of time, for me.
