Congrats. At less than 1K followers, I know how good it can feel. Chosen for further distribution used to actually mean a lot too, but it’s not like we can turn back time. I think it’s worth knowing that you can reach those views and many more without boost too. I for instance had a good few days last month at over 5K views, even above 7K. None of those articles were boosted. So, know that you CAN reach many folks without it too. Keep on writing 😉
