Maximizing Article Promotion on Medium: Strategies and Insights
Written on
Chapter 1: Observations on Article Readership
In my experience during February and March, I noticed a decline in the number of views and overall readership for articles on Medium. Despite having around 10,000 followers and 200 email subscribers, I often struggle to surpass 150 views per day. The reasons for this drop remain somewhat unclear.
To counteract this trend, I've been actively promoting my articles daily through various strategies. Here, I will outline two effective methods I've utilized.
Section 1.1: Leveraging Twitter for Promotion
One of the primary platforms I used for promotion is Twitter, now known as X. I made it a habit to promote 5 to 6 articles once or twice daily. Although my following on X was limited, I focused on connecting with individuals who also write on Medium. This approach aimed to engage with like-minded individuals and increase the visibility of our work.
On certain days, my articles shared on X garnered around 30 to 40 views, depending on the topic. If you have an account on X, feel free to share it in the comments, and I would be happy to promote your articles as well.

Subsection 1.1.1: Creating a Publication on Medium
Another method I've employed to promote my articles on Medium is through my own publication, which I launched this year. Although it currently has only 175 followers—seemingly modest—I believe this has significantly impacted the visibility of my articles.

In this publication, I aim to attract active individuals interested in promoting their work. It's important to remember that everyone involved shares similar interests. By participating, you can increase your article views and potential earnings, while also fostering new friendships.
I welcome comments from those interested in becoming contributors to my publication. If your articles are of high quality, I will respond promptly. I encourage both novice and seasoned writers to join.
Section 1.2: Community Engagement and Feedback
Finally, I would love to hear your thoughts on how you promote your articles in March. Your insights could be valuable for everyone looking to boost their Medium presence.
