Unraveling the Truth Behind Medium Tags: What You Need to Know
Written on
Chapter 1: The Ever-Changing Medium Landscape
For those familiar with Medium, one undeniable aspect persists: constant evolution. This is precisely why I’ve delayed updates to my app, preferring to continue utilizing the convenient Medium iOS application. The reading functionality operates smoothly, which is a plus!
Today, during an unusual stint on Medium via desktop (I do have a soft spot for the app), I observed something peculiar: only one tag was prominently displayed on my articles. While my stories still appeared in searches under various tags and on the tag-specific pages of my publication, the visible tag count was reduced.
I initially wondered if this was merely a quirk of viewing my own profile, so I took a detour to Tom Fenske’s page. Aside from being the editor of The Shortform, Tom regularly contributes to various publications. His profile reflected a similar pattern.
With my detective mindset activated, I was curious to explore whether this trend was exclusive to profile pages or if it extended to publications as well. Naturally, I visited one of my favorite publications, ILLUMINATION, and what did I find? The same scenario unfolded!
Hold on—before you rush to check out the publication, let me clarify that I captured this screenshot from my desktop. Alright, you can go ahead now, but do give a clap if you’re able!
What does all of this signify?
I’m uncertain if this is a first-time observation due to my desktop exploration or if it’s indicative of a broader change. Regardless, I’ve gleaned a few insights: tag your articles thoughtfully and meticulously. Ensure your primary tag accurately represents your article's content. Focus on your writing while also considering Kristina God’s insightful piece about Medium tags.
