Freelance writers – how do you track your article performance across platforms?
Hey everyone, I'm a solo dev tinkering with a side project. I write freelance articles myself, and I got tired of jumping between Medium stats, Substack dashboards, and Google Analytics just to see what's actually performing.
So I'm building a dead-simple dashboard that pulls everything into one place – views, reads, claps, earnings trends, etc. No fancy stuff, just clean charts and numbers.
Quick questions:
- What do you currently use to track your writing metrics?
- I'm thinking of charging around $9/month once it's ready (with a free plan for basic stuff). As a solo guy bootstrapping this, does that sound reasonable to you, or would you expect it lower/higher?
- If I actually shipped this at that price, would you give it a shot?
Also, what would make it more useful for you? More platforms? Export options? Happy to hear any ideas – thanks!
