My First 5 Days on Medium
A growth comparison from just ONE day— Full Transparency

Yesterday I wrote this article where I showed you how much growth I’ve made in only four days on Medium. I started writing on Medium because I got COVID (you can read about that here); I wanted to do something productive whilst cooped up in my room. But, honestly, re-runs of Modern Family were driving me a little crazy!
So here you go, full transparency…
- 61 Followers (nowhere near the holy 100 but up by 31 IN ONE DAY)
- 2 Email Subscribers (the stat I am still most shocked by) — up by 1
- I am a writer for eight publications (pretty proud of this one) — up by 2
- 299 Views (up by 151 IN ONE DAY)
- 162 Reads (up by 81)
- 83 Fans (up by 45)
Again, I am so pleased with these stats; this is tremendous growth IN JUST ONE DAY!
I will repeat what I said in my last article; this is one of the best social media platforms I have used in a long time. The community here is nothing like I have ever experienced before; everyone wants you to succeed, which is refreshing.
If you’re new to Medium and like nature, hiking, photography, YA novels, gin, and analyzing social media stats, then let’s be friends! Drop a comment, and I will follow you back!
