My Medium Milestone: A Successful First Month And My Medium Journey
One Month, Countless Lessons
“As we share our stories, we unlock not only our own voices but also the voices of those who resonate with our words, creating a symphony of connection and community.”
Hey there, fellow writers and Medium enthusiasts! I'm thrilled to share my one-month journey on this incredible platform. From discovering Medium to gaining followers, claps, and views, it's been a wild ride.
The Genesis: How I Discovered Medium
I still remember the day I lost all my poetry and articles from my digital notes. It was a devastating moment, but it led me to explore alternative platforms to share my work. That's when I stumbled upon Medium through a YouTube video.
"I had no idea that I'd find a community that would appreciate my writing," I recall thinking. "Medium seemed like the perfect place to share my thoughts, and I'm so glad I took the leap."
The Follower Journey: From Zero to Five Hundred Plus
In the beginning, I didn’t get any followers for 2-3 days. It was a bit discouraging, but I didn’t give up. Then, I got my first follower, James Davis. I was ecstatic!
"That's when I realized that people might actually be interested in reading my work," I thought. "It gave me the confidence to keep writing every day."
The Clapper Journey: From Silence to Applause
Initially, I didn’t get any claps on my articles. But on the second day, I received my first clap from Garima Sharma. It was a moment of pure joy!
"I felt like I was on top of the world," I remember. "It motivated me to continue writing and sharing my thoughts with the world."
In my first month, I've received over 20,000 claps. It's surreal!
Views, Reads, and Earnings: The Numbers Game
In my first month, I've gained:
- 12,00 views
- 556 reads
- A sense of accomplishment that’s hard to put into words
As for earnings, well... let's just say I'll save that topic for my next article.
Lessons Learned: My Takeaways from One Month on Medium
Here are a few key lessons I've learned during my first month on Medium:
1. Consistency is key: Writing every day has helped me grow my audience and improve my writing skills.
2. Engage with others: Interacting with fellow writers and readers has been instrumental in building my network and gaining followers.
3. Don’t be afraid to experiment: Try new things, take risks, and see what works for you.
What’s Next?
As I continue on this Medium journey, I'm excited to see what the future holds. Will I reach new milestones? Will I connect with more like-minded individuals?
The possibilities are endless, and I'm thrilled to be a part of this vibrant community.
