Your One-Minute Guide to Medium Success
Every platform has its own rules — some written, some implied. There are tons of detailed guides for Medium writers, and I recommend reading them when you can.
In the meantime, here are 5 simple tips to help your articles succeed on Medium:
- Use title case for your title — capital letters for big words, lowercase for smaller ones.
- Create a subtitle — keep it brief.
- Include an image — credit the photographer.
- Break up your text — use lists, quotes, headers, and small paragraphs.
- Write for some, not all — not everyone will like your work, and that’s okay.
Other factors impact your success at Medium, but don’t overwhelm yourself. Start with the easy tips above and publish something today. You’ve got this!
