My Holiday Gift!

I started to read medium articles more than ever over the last 2 months and it has been a life-changing experience for me. The only obstacle I come across is finding the most popular articles categorized by authors, publications, and tags.

I have good news for you!

Faced with this problem, I started to write down every article that I saw in the top stories section every month. I have amassed a list of articles that have at least 500 recommendations, and I have listed these articles according to their authors, publications, and tags. It has taken me days to prepare, but I loved completing this list.

In the spirit of the season, it’s time to share with you this list as a gift!

In this lengthy article you will find:

• Top articles which have more than 2500 recommendations;
• Top writers whose articles have more than 500 recommendations;
• Top publishers whose articles have more than 500 recommendations;
• Most popular tags used in medium;
• Shortest (less than 1 minute) and longest articles (more than 20 minutes) that have at least 500 recommendations as well.

These are the ones that I really like, but if you want to get a hold of my entire list, you can reach it through google documents or you can also share your email with me through bestarticles.xyz and I will send the pdf files to your inbox.

If you share your email with me, you will also be informed of the launch of our ebook which focuses on Medium writers.
