I kickstarted my Medium journey by publishing every day.

From May to July 2020, I went on a writing spree where I published 90 articles in 90 days.

Crazy, I know, and incredibly taxing on your creativity.

But that mad publishing spree gave me traction like no other. My views skyrocketed, my earnings crossed $500 each month, and my followers grew by leaps and bounds.

After that, I slowed down to 10–15 articles each month. But the unfair advantage my publishing spree gave me continued paying dividends for months afterwards. You can see that from my follower growth stats below-

Outside of the money and fame, writing every day had multiple benefits, including —

  • I could generate ideas and finish articles quicker.
  • I started treating daily writing as a non-negotiable.
  • In just 3 months, I had enough data to understand what works for my audience.
