How to Make Your Medium Stats Rise Every Day
Every day I check my stats on my articles. Looking to see those views, reads, and claps keep rising.
Every stinking day.
And multiple times a day, too. I worry, fret, and wonder. I sometimes even compare weeks to estimate how much money I might make that week.
Admit it to yourself, you probably do it too. Far more than you’d like to say.
We all do it.
It’s okay. You’re not alone. You’re not the “odd one out” here for checking your stats too much. We are all still only human at the end of the day. It’s perfectly natural to want to improve, and want to earn more money as well.
I used to wonder what causes a good day for my stats and a bad day.
I’ve learned that it’s not as much the quality of your stories, although that is an important factor. But this principle, if practiced, tends to improve the quality of your stories anyway.
Consistently good and improving stats have everything to do with your consistency in publishing articles.
Every day that I didn’t publish a story in the month of September, for example, my stats were lower than the surrounding days that I did publish.
