Do You Want Your Medium Articles on Vocal Media? Here Is My Workflow
Publishing a catalog of a few hundred Medium articles also on Vocal Media can be exhausting. Good organization ahead of time helps.
When you start on Vocal Media, it’s good to have a lot of articles online quickly. That way, you increase your chances of getting traffic and paid reads.
Most importantly, publish your first fifty articles quickly. For fifty articles, Vocal pays a bonus of $50.
But if you have already published a lot of articles on Medium, you can quickly lose track. Which pieces have you already transferred to Vocal and which are still missing?
You can work through your Medium profile, of course, but that’s very time-consuming because the older the articles you’re looking for, the longer it takes you to scroll to them.
If you’re already archiving your articles offline on your own computer, you’re clearly at an advantage. For everyone else, I strongly recommend that you catch up before you get into Vocal Media.
It’s a lot of work at first, of course, but it’s worth it in the long run. Managing your own work exclusively on a platform you don’t own is fundamentally risky. After all, if Medium disappears tomorrow, you’ll still want access to your work.
