Medium Enhanced Stats Chrome Extension

The must have extension for any Medium writer who cares about their stats!

Medium Enhances Stats is a Chrome browser extension, which allows Medium writers to view a comprehensive breakdown of their stats.

The extension goes beyond the limits of Medium’s built in statistics, and provides crucial insight into the data from your articles.

Some of the popular stats that the Medium Enhanced Stats extension includes are:

• A graph displaying the total views across all of your Medium articles.
• Stats for both Medium stories and Medium responses. Some of the measured stats include: views, reads, read ratio, fans, claps, fans-to-claps ratio, and a count of the total number of stories or responses published.

• A more detailed Medium Stats section graph. Each black dot represents a day that articles were published. If you move your cursor over the black dots, you can see which stories were published on any given day.

• You also get a more detailed breakdown in the Medium Stats section (below the chart) where you see a list of your story-specific stats. You will notice that in addition to the standard data points (views, reads, read ratio, and fans), there is a column allowing you to view an article’s claps.

• There are also percentage calculations for Fans and Claps. These include Fans per Reads Ratio, Claps per Views Ratio, and Claps per Fan.

Best of all?

All of this is 100% free and very easy to use!

You just need to use Chrome or Opera Browsers so that you can add the extension.
