I am a participant in self-media. I have participated in the writing of self-media such as Toutiao, Baijiahao, Penguin, Dayuhao, zhihu, etc. I feel that the best one is Toutiao. This is In terms of media style and author’s income. A common phenomenon in
is that articles have low clicks and do not make money. The more clicks your video gets, the more money you can make. The Big Fish account began to make no money for a long time, which was extremely disappointing. The income from the Penguin account was too low, and I had to withdraw more than 100 yuan. I earned 64 yuan, but I couldn't withdraw it. Later, I applied for cancellation and didn't earn a penny. Baijiahao's requirements are too high. I have published more than 100 articles, but I can't get them corrected and there is no hope. Zhihu simply did not make money, published many articles, and stopped updating content. Why! Self-media is basically not suitable for authors to submit articles. There is basically no income from submissions, which hurts the author's vitality.
self-media, why add v, vertical field, I applied for American articles, some are called cultural fields, I think these are not necessary. Self-media should not be hierarchical. Everyone should work together and share the blessings and difficulties. As far as I am concerned, you can apply for literary studies, culture, society, life, education, etc. I know a little bit about them. Don't limit the author to a certain field. Is it fun to do so much? It is not conducive to its own development. To put it bluntly, it is not good for the platform or the author. It makes everyone suffer losses.
Today, self-media relies on traffic and advertising revenue. The epidemic has impacted the economy, advertising revenue is very small, and the media is having a hard time. Articles and videos have very few clicks, and the authors earn a few cents a day. Some authors simply stop updating. There is nothing the platform can do. There are ups and downs, and the same goes for platforms. We-media authors have a place to speak, but they can’t make money. There are only a lot of literary lovers left. Fewer and fewer people are reading. What to do with
? Platform reforms and cost savings require authors to have their main business in order to survive. Work hard, self-media! Work hard, self-media people!
