Hey
Something exciting happened in the last few days. I noticed one of my Medium articles was getting more and more views. I wrote it in February, so I was curious why the sudden increase in interest.
I jumped into the analytics and, after a bit of research, I realised the article is showing up on Google as a featured snippet. Nice! That means that whenever coaches search for content ideas on Google, my article comes up first on the search page.
Here is a screenshot I took (in incognito mode) so you can see what I'm talking about.
This is an article that is now attracting traffic from outside Medium. Fair enough, it took me a good few hours to put together, but the hard work is done and I am already seeing the benefits.
If you'd like to read the article in question, here it is. I also explain how I use Medium as a strategic tool in my business in this video.
I'm fairly new to Medium compared to other writers on the platform, I don't publish as often as them (some do it every day, I do it once or twice a week) and I have a relatively low number of followers. Nevertheless, I use Medium in a way that works for my business and I will continue to do so as long as I see results.
Do you have a favourite tool that works for your business? I'd love to know how you use it and the results you've seen so far. Hit reply and let's talk about it.
Take care,
Alisa
