Thank you! I'm a tinkerer, too. I like to delve into the stats to see what works--at least for me. I've tinkered with headlines, compared stats of distributed to non-distributed articles (seems to make very little difference, but then about 60-80 percent or more of my articles are distributed). Some outcomes are still a complete mystery to me, like my most popular article in terms of views has a low read percentage and has earned me very little (mostly external reads). My Medium account is linked to Twitter, but that seems to make little difference. From time to time, I google my articles by keyword or headline, and they are visible. If I spent more time on this, my hobby, I would be more "successful," but success, for me, lately is consistent publishing and hearing in comments that people enjoyed reading.
