How to Gain 1,000 Views on Medium Without Boosting

Chapter 1: Understanding Medium's Challenges
Navigating Medium can be quite a challenge, and I refer to it as social media despite its unique characteristics. Even with a significant follower count, reaching 500 to 1,000 views daily can be difficult, whether or not you utilize publication boosts.
To truly grasp this platform, engage with the content of others, including the works of Benjamin A. and countless other writers who contribute to Medium. Your membership plays a crucial role in supporting these creators.
Section 1.1: The Struggle for Visibility
It's common to face difficulties in getting your articles noticed, as statistics reveal that 90% of writers earn less than $100 monthly on Medium. This indicates that many are grappling with low views, reads, and claps. My intention isn't to discourage anyone but to highlight a reality. I recently set a goal to achieve 1,000 views in a day without any boosts—a milestone I hadn’t reached in my three months of writing on this platform.

To my surprise, I hit 1,200 views in a single day without any paid boosts! You might wonder how I accomplished this. The answer is simple: I dedicated time to reading a vast number of articles—over 100 in total. I spent approximately 12 hours engrossed in various pieces. This act of engaging with others’ works is vital, as Medium operates more like a community than a typical social media platform; you must give to receive.

Section 1.2: The Financial Outcome
Did my efforts translate into earnings? I checked my partner program and found I had made $10 on that day—not too shabby! Would I repeat this strategy? Perhaps, but it's undeniably time-consuming. I might prefer to focus on publications and my usual promotional strategies.
