Blogging Tips & Strategies

I got nearly 350 followers in under three weeks on Medium

Am I “successful?”

As I write this article, I have 344 followers

I’ll most likely hit the 350 mark within a few hours of publishing this article, so I don’t think the title is that misleading. And considering the fact that I joined on October 4th, and now it’s October 23rd — 19 days later — I’m extremely happy with my results.

I wrote my “I Got Over 160 Followers in my Second Week on Medium” article only 6 days ago. This means I more than doubled my number of followers in 6 days. And I only published a single article at that time.

So… how much did I earn?

Here are my current earnings for all of my articles:

In my other article, I said that I had only earned $0.84. Six days later I have $25.09. That’s almost 30 times the previous amount.

Why did I only publish one article this week?

I’m currently a senior in high school, so unfortunately most of my writing has been for college applications and homework. I’m sure that I would have gotten more followers and earned more money had I written articles every day or even every other day.

I didn’t expect to do this well in my entire first month, not to mention my first two weeks! I’ve read a ton of articles from bloggers on Medium who say it took months to get to the 100 follower mark. I don’t know why I’ve been this successful so far… some of it might be because of the topics of my articles. Two of my three most popular articles are about making money.

So if you’ve seen slower progress than I have, don’t worry! Just stick with it, and try writing more of a variety of articles. I don’t have any ‘secrets of being a successful blogger’ to share with you since I don’t know exactly why either!

Good luck!
