Same Articles Published on NewsBreak vs. Medium 2024

These sites are very different, yet how do they compare stat-wise with the same articles?

I discovered how to publish my non-news articles on NewsBreak; I just put Opinion in front of the title. Now I can put the same articles I write on Medium on NB and see how they compare.

NB pays an estimated $4.50 per thousand views on average.

I’ve published 15 articles on both sites since this change. NewsBreak articles have been published in the last 36 days.

Let’s look at 7 examples:

Summary

There are 7 of the 15 articles. All except for the last example are doing much better on NewsBreak than Medium with views. They are making much more money on NB as well.

The article with the most M views in the examples made only .19 cents on M.

The best-performing article of the 15 is: “Where Did God Come From?”

So far it has 42k views on NB. Not bad!

For context, I’ve been a writer at M longer than on NB by about a year and 3 months, from when I started writing more seriously on M. I started writing for NB in Dec. 2022.

I have 3,340 followers on NB and 903 on M.

Also, I always share the M article on social media, not NB.

Although NB gets my articles many more views and makes much more money, I still appreciate M and the views and money I get there.

I know there is potential with M and it is probably going to be around longer than NB, as it has proven its long-term stability.

Ultimately, it would be nice to get similar views on M as NB, regardless, without members reading and interacting I wouldn’t make anything. With that said, I can get 18 views and make $3 from an article on M, while at NB it would make pennies.

Still, interesting to see how they compare.

Opinion: Most communities in Oregon and the US are Republican, yet Democrats are in charge

2022 Oregon Governor Election Photo Assuming election results are valid in Oregon, which does take a lot of faith these days after the questions about the 2020 US Presidential election arose, Democrat Tina Kotek won the Governor’s race in 2022 by a slim margin over Republican Christine Drazan. The interesting aspect of this win is how many of Oregon’s 36 counties voted Republican vs. Democrat. Looking at the political map, almost the entire state is red with only a few small counties in the northwest having the blue color. Specifically, there were 7 counties that voted Democrat and 29 that voted Republican. The difference is the 7 counties voting blue are the most populous counties, also the counties with the most residents coming from other states – much like Tina Kotek herself, a transplant from Pennsylvania . Tina only won the campaign to be Oregon’s 39th Governor by 66,727 votes over Christine Drazan. Said in another way, the Democrats pulled off another close election with m...

When are we good enough?

When have we done enough? When is it good enough, and to whom is it good enough for? This is a question many of us humans struggle with or ponder when we consider the meaning and purpose of our lives. Maybe we don’t consider it deeply enough to understand the underlying motivations, the subconscious drivings that make us never feel satisfied with our accomplishments. Everyone has accomplished something if they are alive and getting by each day. If we have learned to dress ourselves, brush our teeth, drive a car, or ride a bicycle, then we have done something at least. As a child, expectations weren’t as high, and we, along with those around us, were generally happy with the small accomplishments that come with growing up. These expectations grow as we get older, sometimes from others close to us and sometimes from ourselves. Many times, it is our own expectations of ourselves that really set the tone for our contentment with our accomplishments. Where do these expectat...
