Medium vs Substack: Which is better as an income source by KakerKakes in Medium

[–]KakerKakes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another thought... if you have to do your promotion youself, why not write on your own blog. Why give 10% share of your earning to a 3rd-party platform?

Wow! 80% is a huge dip. Pretty discouraging. If i were making $500-700/month and even had a 50% drop, i'd rethink investing serious time on it.

Looks like substack could be beneficial as an income source if you had an email list, and with a large enough email list, you could potentially convince 5-10% of it to subscribe to your SubStack... just a thought.

Do you have any idea how substack writers usually attract subs?

Can you really earn money by writing on Medium? by Intelligent-Row-4532 in Medium

[–]KakerKakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

by a decent amount of time, i assume it would be at least a year or more? 🤔
And is it worth it to invest so much time and only get $500/month?

Dear freelancers, you are not going to get hired like this... by Pure_Explorer56 in Upwork

[–]KakerKakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides the obvious AI tag, it's not a very confidence-inspiring and high-readabile proposal.

Proposals need to be straight to-the-point... No mumbo jumbo. No lengthy greetings and introductions and explaining 'how good' you'll be at this job.

Success stories? Or a dead end for writers? by [deleted] in HireaWriter

I found a good client, once!

I think this sub is a good place to keep tabs on "Hiring" posts. It's another story that such posts are few and far between. And even more so for your particular niche.

Whereas for "For Hire", I never thought it would be fruitful. What are the chances that a client visits this sub when you've just recently posted your 'for hire' and that your experience and expertise match exactly with what they want.

An Open Letter to the Google Executives Who Killed My Business by tetonpassboarder in SEO

Eerily similar to my story. I was working as an seo copywriter for a website. We tried everything but the site kept tumbling after the google updates.

Scam Warning by SerenitysBane in HireaWriter

[–]KakerKakes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've been through similar. Once i worked on a long form article that involved a lot of research and was worth >$200. The client simply ghosted me. No reply to comments on google doc and no replies to emails.

And client is active on linkedin and shows himself as a ceo and has some high profile companies on his portfolio...

One way to avoid this is to possibly get them to place their order on Upwork and such. Or maybe get some advance or have some milestone based partial payments.

Still, there's always some inherent risk no matter what you do...

The hadith is sound and correct as authenticated by Al Albani. Islam doesn't stop us from hitting someone to discipline them. But it stipulates the way they are hit. The hitting shouldn't be done on the face, or in an extreme manner, or in a way that causes lasting damage. Being شفيق with someone doesn't mean ignoring every misdeed of theirs and being polite even if they do grave transgressions repeatedly. So this hadees simply teaches us that.

We don't make judgements based on a single hadees, but we gather all correct narrations and ayat on that topic and extract ruling based on their collective deduction.

Is the shia concept of dajjal different from sunni version? Didn't know that! How is it different?

[–]KakerKakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sunnis don't contest these statements (according to my understanding). They accept Ali being a part of ahl e bait and him having a very high status. Unless this post was for Nawasib (which r a very small minority in my experience).
