OK, I will stop posting in .ml

And just one more thing. When I wrote this article, my earnings for December were 0.56$

Today, 19 days later, my total earnings are 3.93$

I hope to earn a little bit more this month to cover the monthly subscription! :D

Ok, thanks for your feedback!

I will change my approach to all of this.

If you're refering to me in any way, I would like to hear why am I asshole? :(

Tnx! :D

I don't understand what the problem is, I have the artistic right to style it as I like, I guess.

1. I think not, as far as I can see, you can edit your header and banner, not many options are offered, but I'm not sure

2. I don't have Substack or Ghost, I only use Medium and share friend links to those articles on social media and online communities

3. It depends. It is good to have this distribution system, but don't rely solely on it.

Let's say for article like this, which I shared on several places outside Medium - external traffic referrals are 60% and above.

Some traffic comes from algorithms and internal distribution system, some from email subscribers and followers, some from shares, but what can really improve your traffic in terms of reads and engagement is reading other's work and engaging with the articles you find good and interesting.

Participating in writing challenges is also a great way of boosting activity. Since it is a reader fund platform, it is a sort of hybrid between blog and social media.

So I can say, depending on my activity and efforts, the numbers will change accordingly.

And be sure to connect with real people, since there are a lot of bots, which I wrote about in a few articles.

1. Analytics is their own. I doubt you can integrate anything here.

2. I think there is no problem with incorporating various kinds of content in your article. I only put photos and You tube videos sometimes.

3. When you hit publish, you can choose to publish or schedule for later

4. I don't know if there is more users using the desktop version or the mobile app. As I said, for the traffic is really good to engage with other writers.

I have some that I really appreciate. Some are poets, some write essays, some are professionals in certain fields of work and write about it, and some are here to heal.

Getting to know real authors from all around the world with unique voices is such an awesome feeling, and the benefits of connections like this are a lot. Not just personal, but it also moves the algorithm, I guess.

What I want to say is, it is better to have 50 real, active followers and readers, than 1000 empty ones, just numbers.

1. I don't quite understand this last question. If you can clarify a little bit. Sorry, English is not my native language.

I hope I offered some answers!

I just spend 20 min on writing my answer just to delete it by clicking something wrong...... will write one more time XD

It started with work on the 1st of December, and for now, it is only on medium, but I have big plans for the future.

There is no theme or niche. The most important thing is authenticity and honesty.

It can be a personal essay, a real-life story, an industry insight, a humorous take on life, a taboo topic, or a beautiful poem.

I don't accept listicles, AI-generated content, and content with a main focus on earning online.

So far, there are authors from the USA, South Africa, South Wales, Croatia, India, and more to come.

To participate in this writing challenge, you don't need to be a paying member, you can log in to medium with a gmail.

I'm here for any further questions :)

Ok, I see your point. I'm new to communities like this. Thanks for clarification!

But I shared a friend link, which means you can read it.

Here it is one more time: https://medium.com/1st-division/the-real-matrix-is-here-it-is-worse-than-you-think-5c054200b27e?sk=7b9f09e54bde30c5771644192079fe18

And it is also linked in the beginning of the article.

More traffic on Substack? How is that possible? I mean, I didn't try it, but does it also have its own distribution system?

And what platform do you use now?

How do you find new readers for your Substack account?

It is an online publication, based on medium.

There is no niche. Publication accepts real life stories, essays, poems, any industry insights, taboo talk... Only requirement is that it is a human written story. It can be fiction as well, although I prefer non-fiction.

I encourage raw storytelling, authenticity, and honesty.

By struggle, I mean more about being seen, spreading the news, and promoting the publication from scratch in this digital world which is full of content.

But numbers are going up, and more and more readers and writers are joining.

So far there are authors from Croatia, South Africa, USA, South Wales, India, Turkey, ...

Future plans are to expand beyond medium.

I'm starting with a promotion in two weeks.

Making some video material!

What? Who is Walter? ...

That's a total fiasco according to the votes!

I'm working on a big article on this theme to clarify the aspects of this topic.

Stay tuned!

:P

Ok, thanks for clarifying! 💯😃✌️

Will do! 🙂

Ok, thanks for the feedback!

I insert a FREE LINK in the beginning of most of the articles, so you can read without the membership

What exactly made so much people downvote the article? :)

Well, I’m sorry if you feel that way. I think it is a really good text with nice messages if you understand them 🙂
