How a Few Extra Stories 10Xed my Views in a Month
Without feeling too much extra pressure
Without feeling too much extra pressure
I just noticed this and was surprised by it.
I have only been with Medium a couple of months and, having done some due diligence, I have been gradually making myself at least TRY to complete and publish a story a day. I was convinced my progress would be sure.
Some rough weather this month gave me the opportunity to spend an extra bit of time writing. I found that after I finished a story, I was sometimes still in writing mode, and with just a little extra effort, I could turn out a second story in a much smaller amount of time.
I found I could do that a few times a week, and those extras could add up to two, and once or twice, three per day.
Of course, I couldn't do that every day yet at this point, and I haven't been measuring my results scientifically. In fact, my screenshot is embarrassingly low, but it gives me excitement and hope about action and results.
The handful of extra stories increased my views by several times (sometimes ten times) for a given day, more than it logically should. I intend in the future to keep better track of the variables to see a more valid graph, now that I know what I am looking for.
For now, this is the only one I have. It may show an idea of results, but otherwise, it’s not much.
I share it that you might be either encouraged or amused. I'm ok with the progress.
Incidentally, if you’re smart, you will let me warn you every time I publish a story, by getting on THIS LIST.
