At first glance, this sentence has some truth. There are two reasons that directly affect the income of articles, one is internal and the other is external.
Internal cause refers to the quality of the article and the weight of its own account, while external cause refers to the reading and praise of the article. The internal factors have been analyzed in the article before, so I won't repeat them here.
The point of this paper is, which is more important, reading volume or praise volume?
Personally, I think the influencing factors of reading volume are more important than praise volume for two reasons:
First, read more, which means that the article will be recommended for more exposure times. Everyone can understand that the more people read, the greater the probability that the article will be praised.
Second, the amount of reading is also a benchmark for the quality of your article. My articles have a reading volume of 5,000 to 6,000 or even higher, and some have a reading volume of only a few dozen, 100 to 200. These articles are basically labeled as hydrology, and the reading volume can't go up, which leads to an increase in the number of likes, and it is difficult to obtain sustained income in the later period.
Third, I know my article is watery, but I believe my article will have a lot of hits. How about a bet?
