How This Medium Strategy Got Me 100 Reads

Ok, I get it. You want to start writing on Medium and become a blogger. You publish an article. You’re hyped.

And then… crickets. You get 0 views, 0 reads., and end up with broken dreams.

Are you doing something wrong? Well, I’m about to tell you what you’re doing wrong and how to fix it.

See, there’s been a lot of changes to the Medium algorithm. They favour personal and authentic stories,

And even if that’s not in your niche, they simply could not give a shit. So, first of all, your topic is one of the reasons.

However, don’t let this discourage you - writing needs to come from a place of passion. That’s the only way you’ll truly enjoy writing.

So, here are some tips that helped me go from 12 views to this:

Submit to Publications:

Publications are like a newsletter. A bunch of people follow a publication, and whenever an article is published,

it gets pushed out to the followers of the publication. So, it’s extremely good, as some publications have 20k followers.

Stay Consistent:

You’ve heard this everywhere. I get it. But, you absolutely need to stay consistent. Blogging isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme,

it’s building your audience to promote your paid products.

Anyways, that’s all for today. I’ll see you in the next one :)
