WRITING
Your Chances of Getting Boosted
Inside the mind of the Medium Algo
Hi friends,
I was away for a while from serious writing.
There were many reasons, the main ones being my travels and home renovation. I am sort of feeling out of place with no friends visible. I wasn’t keeping in touch. Sorry friends!
I am sitting in a book cafe and thinking of Medium, the future of my publication, and the future of my blogs.
I have posted one or two blogs without tagging friends and they received barely any views or comments. How to survive as a writer in this situation?
There’s nothing one can do except speak to the void or catch the attention of the Boost.
As writers, we are all dreaming of our stories getting boosted for that much-needed visibility, following, peer motivation, and of course monetary rewards.
How to achieve this goal?
I have the experience of one of my stories getting boosted giving me great satisfaction and content as a writer. Love was showered from so many readers, my gratitude to each one of you🙏❤️
Now, let me address the topic of the day…
How to get that acclaimed Medium Boost?
📝 Write Consistently and Engage
This will definitely keep you floating. Write consistently. Engage with your fellow writers. They will get back to you and read your stories giving you the much needed moral strength and motivation. Without this vitamin ‘M’ you won’t be able to fire your passion.
Even when you are not writing engage and read.
✍️ Find Your Niche
You need to find your niche and stick to it sooner or later. Your niche is your comfort zone. Within your niche, you write effortlessly. Algo loves effortless writing. You need to be in this beautiful effortless zone to get discovered by Mr. Algo.
To find your niche you need to write on different topics initially. The saying goes that ‘ write 100 blogs’ before you discover your niche.
So start it.
Challenge yourself to that 100-blog turning point. Write when inspiration strikes or sit under an apple tree… ( pun intended 😉)
Once you discover your niche, Algo is sure to discover you 💖.
😌 Have Patience
What you do while you are waiting matters a lot.
Have the heart to write even if no one reads. It is like ,dance like no one is watching…💃
But, you must have a clear idea of your destination before you start.
Visualization helps you manifest your destination.
At least no one is going to stop you unless you are writing for a publication with certain rules and guidelines.
📝 Find Your Publication
Finding a publication that fits your niche will get you one step further towards the boost.
So, there you are…
All set for the next boosted story 🍀
You might ask me if I found my niche yet?
Not yet…
I am still striving to reach my 100th blog.
Love and hugs
Friends hoping you are all doing great 💖
