If you want to know the secrets to grow on Medium, the best person to ask is a publication editor.

Especially if it’s the editor of a boost-enabled publication.

They can tell you insights and secrets like nobody else can.

I’m also the editor of Books Are Our Superpower, Medium’s largest book-related publication with more than 19,000 followers. And the best part? BAOS is in the Boost Nomination Pilot, a program where publication editors can nominate stories for Boost to Medium’s curation team.

I’ve nominated 120 stories, out of which 104 have been selected for a boost, giving me an 87% success rate.

Based on my experience, I’m going to share some secrets about succeeding on Medium from a publication editor’s point of view.

Before we begin, here’s a quick history:

• I started Books Are Our Superpower in 2020.
• There are more than 1,000+ writers from all over the world.
• We get more than 800,000 minutes read every month.
• The highest viewed articles on BAOS have more than 200,000+ views and have made around $6,000.
