Are you fixated to Medium Stats than writing?

Well, I am and here is my strategy to overcome this habit

Since I have joined Medium platform about 7 months back (which is not a long time ago), I have published a few articles and have been trying different strategies to see what works for me — Titles that would make people click, the topics that get curated, the structure and flow of the articles, constantly analysing and strategising about writing rather than writing.

I have read a million articles on “How I made $600 from my first article”, “How I made $1000 in the first month” and “How to achieve an income of $10,000 from writing” and so on and I tried most(read all) of their tactics. And below is my honest take away on what has worked for me.

1) Publish in a publication

I tried publishing, it helps a little but doesn’t really spike your views dramatically unless you are a famous author like Tim Denning or Ayodeji Awosika who would publish in the same publication but would have exponential views — they have a huge follower base and that would bring more views and build upon the traffic.

2) Write an engaging Title and use an attractive featured image
