Hey, exciting news! I have finally hit 1000 views on Vocal Media! It’s been a journey filled with ups and downs, and along the way, I have learned quite a lot about what works and what doesn’t. So, I thought I’d take a moment to share my experience and some tips that might help you on your own Vocal journey. Let’s dive in!

I joined Vocal Media in January of 2022, after struggling to get views and followers on Medium for a few months. Being a full-time student and trying to get my writing career off the ground was challenging, especially with little guidance, but I kept at it. I’ll be honest; I made the biggest mistake I could by quitting when things weren’t progressing. If you’re new to writing on Vocal or Medium, here’s the biggest advice you’ll ever need: Don’t. Quit. Your stats will never recover.

My posting was inconsistent in the past, sometimes every day for a month and then no posts for two months. This inconsistency doesn’t give the site a reason to show your content to people, making your account seem wasted in their eyes. However, I’m trying my hardest to recover my accounts and grow them into a livable wage while writing my next book.

Let’s get to the exciting part: Q&A style.
