Medium in September
September was a roller coaster for me here on Medium. Looking back, it makes me really question how things will look moving forward. Shall we take a look?
Let’s talk money first.
Compared to the last six months, I did great. I managed to make $43.30 which was almost $30 better than I’ve done recently. Trust me, this is not a bash on Medium. I appreciate this website and I am thankful for having an outlet for my writing.
So if I were to base it on how much money I made, I’d be happy. I’d be thrilled. But, when you take a look at my stats, it’s pretty dismal.
I had one article written back in July that for some reason or another took off. That one article earned me $33.01. Once again, I’m not complaining! That was awesome! For one week, I saw my stats rise above normal. I’ve tried to figure out where it gained its traction, but never could.
What does that mean?
That means, that between the 23 articles I wrote, along with 47 stories written previously, those 70 posts made me a whopping $10.29.
Had it not been for the one article, that’s how much I would have made.
I’ve been making sure that I focus on Medium every day. I write and post at least every other day, and I make the time to read and interact with the community.
