Medium Engagement: Is Quantity or Quality More Important?
One of the most important things a writer must do on Medium if they want to achieve success is to create engagement.
But along with this comes the question of what is more important, quality of engagement or quantity?
In this article I will tell you my opinion on this question and I would like to know what is your opinion.
When I started on Medium I tried to create engagement with as many writers as possible, and this has helped me tremendously to grow in terms of number of followers.
The more people you interact with, the greater the chances of having a sizable following. But unfortunately most people do this just to turn your engagement in a nice way.
So I found myself in the situation where I had over 8k followers but when I published an article there were only 2–3 people who liked and interacted with my article. A lot of people were asking me how is it possible to have such a large number of followers and yet the revenue is extremely low.
This is because Medium does not pay for the number of followers but for the engagement that your articles create. So a person with 100 followers would have largely the same engagement as me.
