How I Made My Story a Top-Earner for Three Consecutive Months
My role in making a story successful
In September, I wrote a story that has been my top-earner for three consecutive months. It’s also the most earning story on my Medium profile. But the question is why this story achieved so much that many others failed to achieve.
The answer is so simple. Let me explain.
When I wrote this story at the end of September, it went viral. This story went viral because it fulfilled all the things that a reader wants in a story. It was an easy solution to a problem that many people face. It was also a story that makes easily achievable promises, not ones that nobody can achieve. It also let everyone achieve the results very fast.
This story went viral, but you would know that everything has an end. So, after two to three weeks, it started dying. The views dropped as well as earnings.
But I didn’t want my story to die because it was helpful for the readers and also for me. So, I started thinking about reviving it, and after so much time, I came up with an idea.
The idea was to promote the story excessively. So I started promoting it in each of my stories but in a positive way. I forced people to click on the story because there is a good chance that they will read it through to the end. You can read the story below that explains the exact way I forcefully made that story viral.
And after all of the exposure, the story became viral once again. It started getting the attention again and succeeded in gaining so many views and money. When it went viral again, it now receives more daily views than it used to do previously.
It got the attention for almost three weeks, and then the views started decreasing slowly and gradually. It used to get almost 5 to 10 views a day, but I was not happy to see it die again. So, I came up with the idea of pinning.
I came up with the idea of pinning by reading a story about the benefits of pinning a story to your profile’s top. And after reading the story, I decided to pin that story to my profile’s top and quickly did it.
And you won’t believe, after pinning my story to my profile’s top. It started getting an average of 15 to 20 views every day after some days of pinning. It’s been almost two weeks since I pinned the story, and it’s constantly getting 5 to 10 views every day till now.
You can read the story below to know that how I am getting 15 to 20 views a day. And it will also help you decide whether your story is perfect to be pinned at your profile’s top or not.
Final thoughts
Never let your story die when it’s helpful for you and your readers as well. It doesn’t matter what you do, but you have to do something to attract people’s attention and force them to read your story.
Don’t let your story die when it has the qualities to attract the reader’s attention and benefit them in any way.
