Dear Esteemed Followers,
With profound gratitude, I extend my heartfelt appreciation to every one of you for your unwavering support throughout this remarkable journey.
Whether you’ve been by my side since the outset or recently decided to join our community by clicking the “Follow” button, your presence has been a beacon of light, guiding and uplifting me in ways I could have never imagined.
The purpose of writing this post is to inform my followers about some of the most important lessons that I have learned from the writing experience on Medium since joining the Medium Partner Program, which was possible for me just after publishing the very first story after subscribing to the Friend of Medium monthly Subscription.
Truly speaking, I wanted to make an experiment by engaging with my followers by reading their stories during the very first days and at the same time publishing some of the content.
I wanted to see how the follower base increased and at the same time, revenue generated with the writings that I had posted during the first two weeks.
I surprisingly observed that the follower count rapidly increased during the very first few days when I was busy commenting on the posts of my followers.
I was really curious to know how the follower base increased up to 100s during the very first week! Afterwards, I noticed that most of the followers I have gained were from the followers of my followers of whom I wrote comments on the posts of my followers.
The more I engaged myself in reading the stories and used to write comments and ensured engaging with the readers of my stories at the same time, the follower base increased rapidly.
It was really a great experience during the very first month of my joining into Medium. For some reasons, I got myself busy after a few weeks and stopped signing into the platform.
It was surprising to me that the revenue came for the first two weeks was more than $100 for almost having no such writing of me which I thought would deserve making money in this platform.
It was only because of my followers who contributed their time to reading my contents and clapped and commented that I was able to make myself believe that, yes, I can make money writing through this platform.
Now, I would like to suggest my fellow followers to follow the strategy that I am sharing right now. I think, all of you will be benefitted from this by applying the plan.
I suggest you increasing the friend list from the following friend list I have tagged at the end of which all are my friends (Followers) and would suggest you follow back whoever follows you.
Read their contents, write comments, highlight the texts which you like most as many times as it is possible for you.
You would definitely see a very good outcome at the end of this month in terms of earning more revenue as well as you will have the number of more followers in compared to the previous months.
I promise you that, I will at least read the stories of the participants who make comments in the comment section. If you keep on reading my other contents, I promise you that I will also keep on reading your contents at the same time will be writing comments by highlighting.
This is a commitment from a Friend. So, it would be my request you to start taking action right now and check result. You can start from me, by reading my stories.
Just write me in the comment section, Highlight most of the sentences or paragraphs, and you must clap for the highest 50 times. I promise you to Clap for 50 times for each of your stories as well as your comments, believe me.
I believe that by supporting each other and sharing our experiences, we can all achieve our goals and dreams here on Medium. So, thank you once again for being a part of my journey.
I am truly grateful for your support and encouragement.
As I reminisce about my initial steps into the world of writing on Medium, I am filled with awe at the overwhelming outpouring of support and encouragement that emanated from all corners.
Despite not holding the title of a recognized professional writer, you embraced my words with a warmth and acceptance that touched my soul deeply. For this, I am profoundly humbled and genuinely grateful.
In hindsight, I’ve gleaned invaluable insights from my experiences on this platform — lessons that I believe hold the potential to empower us all in our collective journey of growth and success:
Authenticity as a Foundation: The essence of compelling writing lies in its authenticity.
Embrace the uniqueness of your voice and perspective, for therein lies the true power to captivate and inspire.
Consistency as a Catalyst: Forge ahead with determination, adhering steadfastly to a schedule that resonates with your rhythm.
Whether you choose to pen your thoughts daily, weekly, or monthly, consistency serves as the cornerstone upon which growth and expansion are built.
Community Engagement as a Source of Enrichment: Cultivate meaningful connections within our vibrant community.
Take the time to engage with your fellow writers and readers, fostering dialogue, offering feedback, and extending support — it is within these interactions that profound connections and opportunities for growth await.
Embracing Growth and Embracing Learning: Embrace the journey of perpetual evolution and refinement.
Remain open to feedback, experiment with diverse styles and topics, and embrace each opportunity as a stepping stone towards honing your craft and expanding your horizons.
The impetus behind this missive stems from a desire to share with you some of the pivotal lessons I’ve gleaned from my journey on Medium, particularly since my induction into the Medium Partner Program.
It was an experiment born from curiosity — a desire to understand the intricacies of engagement and its impact on both audience growth and revenue generation.
What ensued was nothing short of awe-inspiring. Witnessing the rapid ascent of my follower count, propelled by genuine engagement and interaction, served as a testament to the power of community.
Moreover, the unexpected financial returns — exceeding $100 within the initial fortnight — served as a poignant reminder of the profound impact of your support and encouragement.
Today, I extend an invitation to each of you to embark on this journey of mutual support and enrichment. Let us embrace a strategy rooted in reciprocity and community building.
By expanding our networks and engaging authentically with one another, we can collectively amplify our voices and magnify our impact.
I pledge to reciprocate your support by dedicating myself to reading and engaging with your stories, offering feedback, and celebrating your achievements.
Together, let us embark on this journey of growth and camaraderie, united by our shared passion for storytelling and mutual respect.
With a heart brimming with gratitude and anticipation, I extend my sincerest thanks for your unwavering support and encouragement.
Your presence in my journey has been nothing short of a blessing, and for that, I am eternally grateful.
With heartfelt thanks and warm regards.
