Explore Effective Strategies for Increasing Your Earnings on Medium!
Introduction
Just a reminder that simply joining one of the Medium publications doesn’t guarantee higher earnings on Medium. Medium considers several factors when calculating your earnings. If readers click on your story and quickly leave because they find it uninteresting or think it’s AI-written, you won’t make money.
Just because a Medium publication has a good reputation or prestige doesn’t mean that every reader will like its content. This article discusses ways to increase your earnings on Medium beyond just publishing in prestigious publications.
Finding Your Niche
To start with, when it comes to finding your niche, it’s essential to pinpoint areas that deeply resonate with your target audience, align with your expertise, and present growth opportunities. According to Medium’s 2020 Writer survey, an overwhelming 60% of writers place significant reliance on topics they are truly passionate about.
These may further be categorized as follows:
Expertise and Strength
- Professional experience and interest
- Personal passions and interest
- Unique perspectives and insight
