Success on Medium isn’t just about writing well. It’s about being read. If you’re publishing without views or engagement, it can feel like shouting into the void. But don’t worry. With the right strategies, you can cut through the noise and make your articles impossible to ignore. Here’s how.

1. Craft Killer Titles and Summaries

Your title is your first impression. It’s the hook that pulls readers in. Without a strong title, even brilliant content will go unnoticed. Aim for clarity, curiosity, or a little humor. Avoid clickbait, but do pique interest.

Examples:

• Weak: “Writing Tips for Medium”
• Strong: “Stop Getting Ignored on Medium: 5 Writing Tricks You Need”

Pair your title with a compelling summary. Medium’s previews show the first few lines of your article. Use this space to promise value, ask an intriguing question, or share a surprising fact.

Quick Tip: Use tools like CoSchedule’s headline analyzer to test your titles before publishing.
