It's been so long since I wrote an article about readcash but today I decided to write one.
I've seen articles about the positive effects of boosting an article (you can check these articles by @Myt.24 and @Jane these are really helpful https://read.cash/@Myt.24/push-the-boost-button-959c5ca5

I agree that boosting article will attract more viewers and paying some cents to boost your article is indeed worth it. Ever since I started boosting some of my articles I've gained a fair amount of subscribers.
However, I'm sure that most of the users here wanted to get more points. Based on my observation, articles about gaining points are indeed a hit, and everyday I see short posts and rants on my notification about their points on freeze, getting low points or getting small amount of earnings, someone even showed indignation towards readcash making it seem like readcash has some responsibility towards them ( remember that @Read.Cash clearly stated that this website could not replace our day job people! If you want to earn more money then look for a proper job lol)
But does boosting really guarantee more points?
I don't think so. Boosting only gives our article the opportunity to gain more views or attract the readers to open it. But it doesn't guarantee that it will gain more likes and comments, and of course more points.
Here are some of the things which I think, we need to consider before clicking that button:
Make sure the article is interesting. If an article is not interesting, even if it's boosted people won't read nor open it.
Choose the best article to boost. Not all articles you publish needs to be boosted.
Don't spend too much on a boost. No matter how much you spend for a boost, your money will go in vain if you boost just any article you like.
As my conclusion gaining more points still depends on our hard work and skills. If you want to earn more points, do a better job in writing a good and engaging article and be active in commenting on the works of others.
I'm not sure if someone did this already but here's a fact about boost: you can boost an article even if it's not yours. Well, not many users will do this because who would be willing to spend money on others without gaining anything, right?
But I tried to boost an article by @blazingwolvez (a new user with awesome photography skills I just discovered last night) because I really like it, I don't know how it will affect me and I still have to wait and see if it will reach more audience ππ€
I'd never tried boosting but many posted articles are boosted maybe I will try with my best article to get boosted
