It’s in every single one of my top 5 earning articles
Now that I’m posting more often on Medium, I’ve wanted to figure out why some of my articles earn so much more than some others.
I’m looking at a variety of factors:
- The day I post
- The time I publish
- The length
- The topic
- The headline
- Engagement before and after posting
I know there are a lot of elements that play a role in the success of an article. I don’t expect very article to go viral. Some articles get 1,000+ views and some articles get >10 views.
I still believe that consistency is the #1 key to success. But there are some things you can do to increase your chances of success.
I understand the importance of good headlines, so it was one of the first things I looked at.
When you have written your headline, you have spent 80 cents out of your dollar.
