NewsBreak vs. Medium/30-day Comparison

February was the first month for me being monetized at NewsBreak and the second month for Medium. The results are in and they are drastically different. In this article, I’ll share the details and some thoughts about them.

To make this easier with how both of these writing sites show stats, let’s compare the stats from Feb. 4 to March 4, or the last 30 days.

NewsBreak

Articles: 20

Views: 60k

Likes: 1,104

Money made: $440

Medium

Articles: 14

Views: 1,734

Claps: 124

Money made: $10.75

-----------------

Although my Medium account goes back to August 2018, I’ve only started seriously writing there since early Dec. 2022 (three months ago).

I started writing at NewsBreak in late Dec. 2022.

Here are some stats on my overall efforts at these platforms:

NewsBreak

Followers: 803

Articles: 44

Medium

Followers: 417

Articles: 69

--------------

While I’m grateful for any money made on both platforms, the difference is fairly drastic. NewsBreak is a place where you can actually make decent money for your articles, Medium is a place where you can make at least something for your articles.

I’ve read earning reports from Medium writers that show there is potential to make decent money, yet the amounts really don’t compare with NewsBreak.

NewsBreak also doesn’t require writers to work at gaining a following; tasks such as reading other writers’ articles, clapping, commenting, and following, aren’t required to build a following and get views.

I’m not sure how long NewsBreak will last or stay popular, but it is a very popular news app that gets your stories in front of many people quickly. The shelf life for a story isn’t as long as Medium, yet in reality, old stories likely get more views than they do at Medium, it just pales in comparison to the massive views they get at first.

My most popular article at NewsBreak has gotten over 14k views and earned me around $180.

My most popular article on Medium has gotten 443 views and earned $1.63. This is since I joined the Partner Program; I have an article that has 1,500 views and earned $1.02.

Conclusion

If you wonder why Medium writers who get approved for monetization at NewsBreak suddenly disappear from Medium, this is the reason.

I like Medium as a writing community more than I like NewsBreak, yet I just don’t have time to work the site enough to make decent money.

Almost all the articles I publish on Medium are written elsewhere on my blogs or NewsBreak, so any money made from them is a bonus.

What I’ve learned writing and reading at Medium for three months is the articles that do the best are written for the Medium audience. This means articles about Medium or articles about life itself. Writing about life lessons, social commentary, and inspirational pieces is what seems to do the best at Medium.

With all that said, I’m grateful to be part of both writing communities and look forward to watching them grow in the future.

The next war will start before the Boomer Gen passes away

The NWO will leverage the Zionist brainwashing the Boomers have undergone. It makes sense that the hidden hand or the shadow government would start the next war before the Boomer Gen passes away, as they are the ones who support Israel the most. In general, the younger generations don’t care about Christianity or Israel. Their programming is to care about themselves and technology. If this is true, the next war will start within an estimated 5-10 years. The youngest Boomers were born in 1964, so are 61 years old. The oldest were born in 1946, so are 79 years old. To note: That means the youngest of the Greatest Gen are 80 years old. 2025 is also the first of the Beta Gen. So, there is a limited window of time for the NWO to leverage the Zionist propaganda they worked so hard to install into these older generations. Although these older gens are too old to do the fighting, they will spearhead the political and social support needed to send off the younger gens to die. The NWO also caref...

An Ode to Grandpa Lee

An old-time pioneer amid modern vanity and "progress." The man stood tall in the wind with the sun beating down on his flat-brim cowboy hat. He was a working man, focused on his pioneer family in the western country they called home. Building and designing structures high and wide, the man skipped across wooden beams high in the air, under shadows cast only by moving clouds; wide open spaces watched the scene as death-defying feats were carried out in relative obscurity, as just another day of work. The man was an old-timer with relatively few years to boast, a before his time pioneer with an adventurous and loving wife plotting business in sagebrush lands far beyond the hyped city life bustling with seemingly meaningless activities. His skin was as leather, scorched in the sun and beaten with high winds containing drifting sand mixed with alkaline dirt. The dry mountain air in the high desert cleansed his heart with comfortable respite from the high temps and harsh weather e...

Between a Rock and a Hard Place in America

The inevitable cycle of conspiracy and deceit until sin and death are destroyed forever by Jesus Christ. The world is in between a rock and a hard place when it comes to politics and current affairs. There is no way out of the problems we’ve created without the majority of people walking in the Holy Spirit. As it is, the vast majority of people are walking in the flesh, including me too much of the time. The modern world has been created to take us away from the spiritual, from faith in the Holy Bible. Technology in the form of television, the internet, and smartphones are the final tools needed to thwart our faith and set us up for deception. The old-time Christian revivals, even just over a hundred years ago before television are essentially not possible anymore with smartphones around. Smartphones and technology are too stimulating and distracting for people to commune with God like we used to. In my opinion, real Christian revival isn’t possible anymore with this technology. The Ho...

The Final Deception is Conservative and Religious

Politics are going according to the NWO's deceptive plan. Politics, History, and the NWO I’ve been taking a break from talking about politics lately, yet that doesn’t mean I feel any different about it. Being someone who doesn’t support Trump or the Dems makes it hard to get any traction with an audience. The truth is more nuanced than most people can handle. It is easier to simply pick a side and believe it without much critical thinking. Trump is speaking the common sense views of the majority of Americans who still have half a brain left after the many decades of brainwashing we’ve been subjected to. The big data algorithms have been gathering the views of every American, compiling them into meticulously organized data reports, so they know exactly what most people want to hear. The left are those who have accepted the brainwashed agenda without any critical thinking. They are the useful idiots the NWO has used brilliantly to create most of the problems that t...
