Another Three Articles That Should Have Done Better
Yikes, not even three weeks since my last article in this series
If you are new to this series, here are my thresholds, in terms of Medium shekels per article:
Below average: <$0.80
Average: $0.80 < x < $1.60
Above average: >$1.60
For many of the below average articles, I either expected they would fail or I later understood why they did fail. These articles do not make this list.
But the articles below are a mystery as to why they did so poorly.
Revenue: $0.28
I wrote a six-part series of how corporations help rich people get richer. The first two articles of this series did not do well. So I proffered this third article to a pub I frequently publish to. I gave the pub owner permission to change the title and graphic. He did. With his pub’s readers and his better “first impression” than mine, I was expecting more than $0.28.
