So well written as always Yana…yes, I agree with you fully.
Yesterday a random writer left me a comment, “thanks for sharing.”
I decided okay—let’s be kind, and let’s go read one of theirs, although let’s be feank; those of us who have been here long enough know, they probably didn’t read my article.
Nevertheless hop over. And I read the first article in which this new writer wants to advise others how to create a dramatic rise in views as they have now seen.
They advised to read 100 articles in a day and comment.
I couldn’t hold back so I left a lengthy comment. I know you know what we would like such a writer to learn and understand: bc you said it here eloquently.
But it got me thinking.
This is why they are limiting the amount we get paid when readers/writers like this are jumping around and reading that much.
And 100 a day is plain insanity and a game. There’s no joy or authenticity in that.
So I hope your article is widely read—and I applaud you for the strategy and discipline you employ to grow your audience.
Have a great weekend Yana!!
