Today is June 27, 2024, and I wanted to write an article on Medium about common candlestick patterns for stock trading. I will probably go back at some point and edit that article for SEO, but right now, I am actively adding to the patterns each day.

I also got an ad to upgrade my Medium to a paid membership with a nice discount, which I took advantage of.

Anyway, I decided to put my (unearned) money where my mouth is. I am writing a 30-Day SEO Medium Article challenge. The purpose is simple. At the end of the month, I want to see whether I can get any traffic from both Medium and Google.

This, of course, directly translates into money as I am part of the Medium Partnership, and my articles are paywalled.

How does this challenge work?

The Baseline

At the beginning of this experiment, I make an average of like 10 cents per month.

June is higher than most months!

I’m rolling in pennies, y’all.
