Does Posting Every Day on Medium Really Matter?
Will you earn more by posting on a daily basis?
Earlier this week, I published an article about how much I have earned on Medium for the month of April (10 days in April to be exact).
And it got me thinking.
Would I have earned more if I made a conscious effort to post an article every day?
Last month, my posts were quite sporadic. Yet, my earnings were a lot better than I thought they would be. I’m puzzled.
Has anyone tried posting an article every single day?
If so, what were your results?
My only concern is the prospect of the quality of my writing decreasing.
I’m afraid I’d be too fixated on my goal of posting daily. Quantity will soon override quality — my biggest fear.
I would never want to sacrifice the quality of my writing.
Is It Worth It?
Although, I do aim to write everyday for at least 30 minutes anyway. I just don’t publish any of my daily, I guess you could call it… “leisurely” writing.
I’m sure it would bore everyone, as I mainly write about how my day went. Call it a personal online journal if you will.
Perhaps I could begin posting short forms as part of my daily Medium posts for the month of May?
Most of my posts are 4–6 minutes long. They take me at least an hour to draft. Writing and posting short forms will relieve a bit of pressure, no?
I’m curious about what will happen.
Will It Cause Writer’s Block?
In the past however, before even creating my medium account, I ran a personal blog and experienced writer’s block for quite some time. An obstacle that most of us have experienced I’m sure.
I remember reading an article about how posting daily could lead to an elongated experience of writer’s block. I definitely do not want this for myself.
I’m aware. My thoughts are all over the place — as reflected in this post.
What are your thoughts?
Continue posting organically? (Articles that are 4–6 minutes long) Or trial posting daily short forms?
