How My Medium Marketing Changed Since I Started Out + Yearly Income
I started out on Medium in 2014.
About three months after officially starting out as an online freelance writer. I guess I heard about Medium and how this might be a great tool to build your portfolio to show prospects you can write.
But for the next year all I used Medium for was to republish my content from my own blog at Elna Cain.
All of these posts are on my blog and do well there, so I thought they would do well on Medium too, but not really.
I wasn’t really invested in Medium at that time and many people weren’t either.
Some of my freelance writing clients were doing the exact thing I was doing — republishing their content as a way to grow an audience.
While it’s much better to do this strategy on LinkedIn, Medium was a new content platform for writers and, since I recently started a few months prior, I thought I would check it out.
Well, I stopped checking it out for four years. It was in 2019 that I started again and am still continuing my writing on Medium.
