Blogging is fun but it can be frustrating in the initial phase when you don’t get the recognition you deserve and your story just becomes one of the very droplets in the “Internet Ocean”. We’ve all been there and its frustrating.

But, if you are a passionate developer and a blogger or want to start blogging now, we have an excellent opportunity for you.

Over the last few months our inbox has been filled with mails requesting us to allow blogging on our CloudBoost medium publication but owing to our content policies we couldn’t go ahead and fulfil those requests though we wanted to.

But now the wait is over.

CloudBoost now invites everyone to get their blogs published on the CloudBoost’s Medium publication. We not only just help you publish it but also feature it in our “best weekly blogs” and your story is delivered straight to the inbox of our followers / subscribers as well as our clients — for FREE.

With a rich set of audience varying from beginners to CEOs, CTOs of some eminent startup ventures and enterprises, if you are someone who writes about technology, development, entrepreneurship — this is a great place to be published.

From submission to publishing — the complete story.

Let me give you an idea about the steps your story has to go through before getting published.

Step 1: Send us an email.

The journey of your story begins with its link landing into our inbox preferably in draft form. Mention the word “Phenomenal” in the subject and we’d know that you’ve paid attention to the details and have read this post, and we would reward you for it. The stories are compared based on these 3 parameters:

How well it is written: The flow, the clarity of ideas for example. What’s the topic of your story: A big plus if its a trending topic or something innovative. How well does it fit in terms of the relevance with our audiences, most of who are developers and tech leads of some prominent enterprises- So if it is something related to technology, its given a higher preference.

the best stories that are selected for a particular week move forward to the next step — refinement.

Step 2 : We make some light edits.

We have a group of very experienced editors and content writers who write for some leading newspapers and publications reviewing your story. Once we are satisfied that the story is near perfect, we make some light edits to your story and then publish it.

Step 3: You and your story gets into the lime light.

Once the story is published, we make sure your story gets the love and recognition it deserves, we publish it on all our social media share points. In fact we encourage you to share it on your profiles as well & ask your friends and followers to share it as well. The more exposure it gets in a small amount of time the better.

The top stories are delivered to the inbox of our followers and clients as well. People get to know you in person and your followings improve tremendously.

Step 4: Get recognized.

We want you to be recognized for your hard work. This overall process helps you gain not only just recognition and a ton of followers, but also enhances your potential as a blogger not to mention the drastic change in your earning potential as a professional blogger.

Not just this you also stand a chance to win the “Phenomenal Blogger” title by CloudBoost and be a CloudBoost certified “Expert Blogger of the month”.

Our Promises

Before moving ahead we promise you that:

You are the sole owner of your blog, we don’t lay any claim on it. The only request that we have is that since it takes a lot of our time and resources in editing, publishing and promoting your story, we request you not to delete/remove your story once its published. Keeping it for a longer period of time in fact helps in reaching a larger population unlike the case with social media.

You can put in as many links and images as you want for your referencing your other blogs, till the time its done in good taste.

We don’t use any cheap tricks of plastering your story with any sort of advertisement. Its your story and we don’t want to earn anything from it but your love.

Even if your story isn’t published this time, don’t worry :) It won’t affect your chances in any way for the next story.

Once any of your stories are published. You’ll be added as a “Writer” to our publication and you can directly submit your stories to us from medium thereafter.

Our Advice

I won’t take more of your time teaching you how to write a blog on medium. I am pretty much sure you’ll do great with it. Just google out “ How to write a successful blog on medium” and you’d be good to go.

The only advice we’d give you would be:

There is a thin line between a good blog and a GREAT blog.

With time, we get a better understanding of what our readers look for and learn to express it better. But for now, the thing that you need to remember is once you publish an article on Medium, you literally ask thousands of people who might be reading your story for many minutes of their lives and that’s a huge responsibility to fulfill ensuring that they don’t feel betrayed.

Proof read it multiple times and even get your friends to read it and make the changes if necessary. A third eye never hurts.

Never, and we say it again NEVER ever take your readers for granted. They are all we have.

You can mail us your stories here: medium@cloudboost.io

We’re really looking forward to your stories and hope that we will be able to help you with making your blogs stellar and reaching a much more wider audience.
