Mediums algorithm is a hard one to figure out, I was fortunate enough in that I found a niche people like early on. I have had a few articles that have done really well $30-40 range with several thousand views and reads and then the next one may get me $2. I pretty much write the same way for all of my articles in this niche. I have a feeling it may have something to do with your follower or subscriber count. For the past four months I will get one real good day then a few small ones, every month. It is weird but it feels good when I get a good one :).
Thanks Stephen. I do agree that Medium is a tough platform not only to write but also to excel within their algorithms. Tony (Medium CEO) recently made it very clear that they are looking only for creativity and REAL content. Let's see how this pans out.
Besides, its exciting to be here on Substack. Stay connected.
Is replicating it what you were trying to do with your Gmail story the other day?
I don't think the same type of replication is possible here on Substack. It's just not the same platform and you'd never get paid per post either.
In 2019, I had a story over there hit the $1300.00 mark with 15K views. It was controversial and I haven ever been able to replicate that again on Medium. I've gotten halfway there several times but never hit the same mark with any other story. But again....that's Medium. Not the same as here.
Kristi, I'm trying to explore and find out if Substack has any kind of content algorithms that they have adopted. Seems not and that's fine with me. I'm a bigger fan of human element and interaction.
