MEDIUM MOJO

The Mind-Blowing List of Helpful Medium Resources

Reliable Medium writers to help keep you in the know

Quick Heads Up: the Medium list you’ll see is crafted by individual authors, not official statements of any kind. The perspectives and opinions shared are solely those of the writer. Think of it like grabbing coffee with a friend where you just might learn a thing or two.

Enjoy the insights, but remember, it’s a diverse world of viewpoints. While presenting these musings for your consideration, I make no assertion regarding their accuracy.

Many of you know I’ve been doing a weekly shoutout series. I’ve been kicking around the idea of doing a similar one devoted to Medium-specific stories. I know most of you find the platform as perplexing as I do at times.

Articles written by other authors often clarify the confusion or add to the conspiracy theories. Either way, it’s FUN and INFORMATIVE. Please let me know in the comments if you enjoy this and want me to curate more.

Since my Medium money barely pays my electric bill, your claps are vital sustenance for my ego — a dose of 50 would make my day.

Let’s get the Medium party started

  • I know the burning question on everyone’s mind is whether the Friend of Medium or FOM is worth it. Well, maybe it’s more of a lukewarm pondering than one on fire, but check out Marcus Musick’s take to see how he feels about it.
  • This one is especially for all my super-trusting comrades out there. CarolF explores the downside of being online and how you can tell if someone might be a bit shady.
  • Next up is some good news for those regular articles that deserve some love but may not get the coveted boost prize. Adrian CDTPPW looks at how some posts do even better than those boosted.

Now for a couple more technical publications

  • The first, by Marilyn Flower, details Alt Texts, what that means, how to add them, and why you should. I know, I know, it’s one more thing besides everything else, but this one helps your SEO. You want to pay attention to it because Google sure does.
  • The second explains how to change your URL. I had no idea this could be done let alone why anyone would want to. Well, May More 💜 Tales provides all the information you need to understand and more.

Bonus Mention

This one by yours truly looks at how one word could potentially impact your read ratio. It was an interesting experiment with some fascinating results. We fuss over our headlines and pictures, but that’s not all we need to focus on.

Happy Reading 💫

So, my peeps, get your Medium Mojo on and read some engaging content to make your day brighter and more informed. Or at least be entertained for a few minutes!
