Abstract

it isn’t everything. Curation — which is known as distribution. Being curated helps your articles get more visibility — the same idea with Boosting. Being curated means that your article is chosen for distribution, which means that it will appear in the feeds of more Medium users. It will also be pushed out to members via the Daily Digest newsletter. But even if your article isn’t curated or boosted, it can still be successful if you promote it effectively.</p><p id="7a33"><b>3. Tags are important</b>.

Let me remind you of these 5 things about getting views on Medium

If you’re a writer on Medium, you’ve probably wondered about the mysterious algorithm that governs the platform. How does it work? How can you make your articles go viral? While there are no special hacks to make your article go viral, there are common beliefs about the algorithm that aren’t true. Here are five things that I would like to remind you about getting views on Medium.

1.Your article may not take off immediately, but that doesn’t mean it’s a flop. It can take time for your articles to gain traction. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t see any views on your content within the first 48 or 72 hours. In general, most successful articles usually start taking off about one to two weeks after it’s been published. Sometimes, I’ve had articles blow up weeks after I’ve posted them.

2. Curation helps, but it isn’t everything. Curation — which is known as distribution. Being curated helps your articles get more visibility — the same idea with Boosting. Being curated means that your article is chosen for distribution, which means that it will appear in the feeds of more Medium users. It will also be pushed out to members via the Daily Digest newsletter. But even if your article isn’t curated or boosted, it can still be successful if you promote it effectively.

3. Tags are important. Medium allows you to add up to five tags to your story. These tags help Medium’s algorithm understand what your story is about and who might be interested in it. Choose your tags carefully.

4. Consistency is key. If you want to succeed on Medium, you need to be consistent. Write and publish on a regular schedule. This will help you build an organic audience and improve your visibility.

5. Engagement matters. Medium is a social platform, and engagement is a big part of what makes it work. If you want to get more views on your articles, you need to engage with your readers. Respond to comments, share other people’s work, and participate in Medium’s writing challenges. I experimented with this engagement hack and I can tell, it does work.

Bonus

Medium Publications also deserve to be listed, as they are playing a big role in our articles' views, and some are making our content SEO-friendly and ranking them in Google searches.

In conclusion, getting views on Medium is not always an easy task. Don’t get discouraged if your articles don’t take off immediately, don’t be quick to throw in the towel just yet. Focus on writing great content, using relevant tags, and engaging with your readers and others' articles, watch your headline and post on publication. With patience and persistence, you can build an audience and succeed on this platform.
