Hello guys, it’s been five days since I paid for the Medium membership, and the first time I’ve seen 100 views on the stats page.

Yeah, I know, it’s only 100 views and 32 reads, but hey, it’s growing and that’s what matters the most. I’ve got over 30 followers and published around 20 stories so far. It’s not much, but it’s a start. Also, I’ve been very busy with my primary job, so I can imagine what focusing 100% on Medium would look like.

I won’t make this article very long, I just wanted to update you guys about my journey on Medium and to motivate newbies to keep writing stories, they will soon get more than 100 views, and who knows, maybe thousands, and more.

Also, I’ve made my first $1 on Medium, well, not the whole dollar but $0.93, but that’s almost the same. Small steps, but I’m excited about it. With more views and reads, I can see my earnings starting to grow, and I hope to see tens of dollars soon.

Please, share your Medium experience and future expectations, I check all the comments on my stories.

Good luck!
