I still remember you told me to comment on writers' articles, and you also once mentioned that you'd follow the people who left meaningful comments.
As you've already known, I quitted my job since January and have been starting on Medium on May 26th, so after I commented on 30 writers, I was exhausted and found out I only got clapps on the comments instead of my article.
It's been so long out of earning, so I panicked and found out writing the red flag articles could help, so I justified my conducts and did it anyway. Now, I notice the repurcussion of taking short cuts because the people who view or comment on articles are way, way, way fewer than my followers.
Good quality comments on fresh articles that are in my niche and no more than 100. In the end, your words and advice are daunting that are so different from other people's 'make $3,000 a month pronto" but it's an admirable definition of "No pain, no gain." The generational wisdom of our ancestors. If I want to earn something, I need to contribute my efforts first. Thanks for sharing!
