Let’s start from the top.

#1

A Former Military Police Take on Kyle Rittenhouse

A brief, simplistic viewpoint of the situation

Some would call this political and others would call this controversial. I wouldn’t, but my intentions did not make it #1 and neither will your intentions make your #1 be #1.

Meant the story as relationship satire just for fun (as promoted by the pretend tie in the cover photo). I like humor and I like to twist realities into a new direction, while keeping the truth aligned.

Success on Medium is luck

The right timing for the first 24 hours, for a specific topic based on who is on Medium that day, on a specific publication
Like my #1, it generated traction based on I guess Google, from people searching current affairs
For someone famous, it is the right timing and the right day based on which followers are on here that day. I don’t know if they actually do this, but the writer could tell the readers what’s coming up next at the end of their articles. If that is consistent, that allows readers the ability to click on every article even if they don’t like today’s topic, to see what the next topic will be

Or you just have to be a hot lady being vulnerable and in need, or a hot lady showing off her empire. Both react male brain chemicals. I don’t want to make examples to show you all, but I can. Not just on Medium, but on every platform.

Or you have to be a great marketer, using slick tongue-work and writing skills while you should be working your day job like the rest of us. Instead, you’re on here “breaking away” from a dead job (one you actually enjoy) and after making your Medium cash, drop off grid for a year, then do it all again. An easy $10,000 a year cut & paste job.

If publications treat this as a business they could run software that shows data trends or analysis software and publish our stories based on those. Big publications could make anyone famous if they wanted to.

You are Most Successful not Publishing with Big Publishers

You are also most successful publishing with big publishers. Clickbait much?

I Agree with being Vulnerable in Writing & in Life; that Doesn’t Help you go Viral, Though

I’ll explain this in 2 minutes

medium.com

I’m not new to this life thing. I’ve caught hackers pretending to be anti-virus software personnel for Panda Security back in the day, while eating popcorn.

I’ve read a dozen articles about “going viral”. All these writers have a platform somewhere around the world and they all know big writers on Medium and those writers help promote them (that’s marketing, not virality). They all “just tried Medium for the first time” (that’s called deleting previous stories that went to s***). Why do you think I have 102 stories? All original content. These “viral” people have perfect lives and they all talk A LOT about having struggled in life — look, struggling in marketing is not struggling like the rest of us do.

They all say storytelling is big. Being vulnerable is a big thing to do. Being controversial is big. And a few others. None they actually were, though.

Storytelling — okay, but they did not story tell to go viral. I’ve told many stories. They just paid to go viral
Controversial. Yep, we all know. I follow two public figures who have publicly explained their 6-figure incomes come from haters sending them viral.
Vulnerable — hmm, no.

My Experience with Recovering from 100% Memory Loss

Looking back to how it has changed me

medium.com

I was vulnerable and added in storytelling in this story! Maybe https://medium.com/illumination was just having a bad day, ha-ha!

Success on Medium is like business. Marketing skills work. And so does organic traction, but they are not the same thing.

I made what I made this month based on one excellent story and the accumulation of 50 articles bringing in the coins.

Smaller Publications

When it comes to smaller publications, if you don’t have a large following your stories will not do so well. Like these rock solid pieces! I chose to submit them to a relevant professional publication that I love being a part of, Follow the Leader https://medium.com/follow-the-leader even if there would be no big traction. I love these stories and will do nothing to manipulate them. This publication owner and manager is rock solid and she knows business and leadership!
