How I Gained 142 Followers on Medium in 3 Weeks this September
My journey writing on Medium for a month.
I still can’t believe that in just three weeks this September, my follower count on Medium skyrocketed to 142. These aren’t just numbers on a screen — they represent real support from readers who appreciate my stories.
It feels like making new friends, people who are ready to read and value everything I share.
My Medium Journey Begins
When I first decided to write on Medium, honestly, I had no idea what to expect.
To me, Medium was this massive platform filled with thousands of talented writers from all over the world. Most users are from the U.S., aged 20–35, and they love original stories, especially those based on personal experiences. I wondered, “Will anyone even read my stuff?”
But with a strong desire to share my stories, I started writing and publishing article after article. At first, the response was small. Only a few people read my posts, and my followers could be counted on one hand.
Still, I kept writing — not for the numbers, but to share my personal experiences that might inspire someone out there.
