It's really hard to guage what's actually going on, is it an algorythm change or moving away from showing articles about medium? I actually only wrote 7 articles in September but still managed to earn $466.
I love reading articles about medium but I tend to write more about health and wellness and those articles tend to take a lot more time to research and get right. But I'm happy with my earnings for what I wrote in September.
I'm going to push a to write more this month but I am going away again so need to factor in that time off.
