Another tip: Niche down on a very specific topic. That gets you a lot more income. Last month I turned over $1,600 writing in the tech space.
Smart 💡!
On what platform?
@@teresaannjack Medium
How much time needed for you to earn to first income??
What is your medium name? Same as UA-cam?
Good things happen when you stay consistent. Awesome truth.
Show up. Everyday. Magic happens when you do! 💫
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
A very honest video about Medium! Loved hearing you!
Thank you for your transparent and informative content. Really enjoyed going through it.
Thank you for the note!
This was very well done! Thank you for being honest and sharing your experience.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ok, great tips! I love how real you are about your less successful Medium stories. I'm about to start Medium journey so being really aware of the real situation there in the beginning 😃
It is volatile for sure. You're really at the mercy of the algorithm. I haven't quite cracked it 1 year, 105 articles in. Some get 50 views. Some get 5K. But I do it for enjoyment and let the income be a bonus. Best of luck! If you write about money, I'll be adding people to The Money Resolution publication that want to contribute soon! Email frankie@themoneyresolution.com if interested. Thanks!
Give me your medium link 😊
Thanks for this! Super helpful. Just subscribed too!
I like the humility with which you present yourself. It is very endearing. Inspiring content!
I super appreciate that Kwadwo!
Your analytical skills earn you a new subscribe!
I just started my business and I've been writing a blog on Hub pages, then transefering it to my own blog, then from the blog I make a long form youtube video, and then from that video i take the audio for a podcast, and then I take the highlighted points from the video and make shorts for UA-cam, instagram, facebook, and tiktok.
Love it! Repurpose that content!
Really good video today. Thanks for this one!
Thanks Leeanne - really appreciate it!
Thank you. This was helpful.
Frankie, your honesty is refreshing - well done - great video.
I appreciate that! Your positivity is refreshing :)
Thank you for this. I found a topic I was very passionate about and ended up writing an article that was a 25 minute read! lol It fell short obviously but now Im thinking about breaking up parts into smaller articles in the future
Before I finished reading your comment I was about to post - break that up into parts! Mine are usually 8-10 minute reads and I still think that's too long. FYI - I did a more recent Medium video a couple months back you should check out next!
Thanks for the tip and I do believe research and consistency is the key
100 p e r c e n t!
Excellent video; I gave it a well-deserved "Like"! Really helpful information for a (possibly) aspiring Medium writer. Many thanks!
So glad it helped. I did a more recent Medium video a couple months back you should check out next. Good luck!!
Totally agree: Small articles perform better than long ones..
If only I could follow my own advice... lol
What's considered small?
Thanks for this information
This was a most helpful video. It answered questions no other "Intro to Medium" video answered. Thanks. No need to reply.
Glad it helped. I have another medium video on YT and a course at themoneyresolution.com :)
Thank you for the transparency and also the truth and judt giving the idea of creating articles from your UA-cam channel vids! I will try that as well, this was very motivating!!
😊 Great video 💯
My pleasure! So glad it was helpful!
Great review Money Res dude
Much appreciated Gary dude :)
Thanks for the explanation.
Best of luck 👍
I admire your honesty on this medium progress, it gives me some mental preparation before i finally post my first article in medium. Keep it up, hope ur writing skill brings u more and more happiness and better income in the near future.
subscribed ... good video
Great video dude. I'm just starting my journey here on UA-cam, Medium, Twitch, etc.. after being an actor here in NYC for a few years. Learning how to transition those skills online and make money from them is proving challenging, but right now I think it's just about putting it in the time.
Absolutely. Consistency and focus. See if you can niche down and focus on one specific thing. That’s what really helped me. I was covering a bunch of topics. It wasn’t until I focused only on financial independence did I find traction. Happy new year and best of luck. Keep at it. I love your video quality! Just need to identify one specific audience and you’ll take off! 🙌
Love it
What is twitch?

Absolutely 🙌
I liked how you narrated so simply. Like absolutely digestible. Subscribed!;)
Thanks Mahir - really appreciate that feedback!
@@TheMoneyResolution you're welcome:)
Nice video bro.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing your experience and insights on monetizing Medium! Your dedication to writing 15 articles in just 30 days is impressive. It's valuable to hear firsthand about the potential for earning through this platform and the results you achieved. Your transparency provides aspiring writers with valuable information and encouragement. Keep up the great work
Twitter i shit.
Im currently trying to make any kind of side income. This is so cool that you can write to earn. Thanks for sharing mate. 40 bucks might not be much, but im sure this can grow into a good sidestream income, to make breathing a little easier.
You gave me valuable information, I'll follow you that's the least i can do for you.
Cheers mate
This video just intimidated me.
Don't get discouraged! Watched my more updated Medium article for some encouragement. I made $2,000 from 1 article! :) You can do it!
Thank you so much sir 🙏 from India 🙏😊
thank you
You're welcome! Best of luck!
I think I can write but I do not spend nearly enough time on it to turn into something that I want to share. But great stuff
Makes sense!
nice 👍😊
Thanks
👍
This is amazing, got to learn a lot.
QUESTION 👇
Based on tip no. 4
Can get accepted by publications without posting any article yet as a newbie
Yes, but probably aim for the smaller publications if you can. It's definitely more about the quality though for sure. If you write about money or finance feel free to send to The Money Resolution. I haven't started posted others yet but I'm very open to it now that I've posted a couple dozen on my own!
Nice
I just joined the program! Thanks for sharing. I should have done this much sooner. I have 51k views on one of my articles 😭 Also, just subscribed to your channel!!
Twitter is great for trending topics! Ha, I don’t really go on it either
That's amazing! Do you have a handle you can share? Would love to check out your writing! 🙌
Good call! I forget Twitter can be useful...
worth?
Im supposed to get pumped watching to start publishing but man it is rough out here a dollar a month for that amount of articles
Hey there! First off, great video! I loved how transparent and informative it was. Quick question tho: I live in a country that is currently not supported by Stripe. Is there any other platform similar to Medium where I can make a living from writing/blogging/content creation?
What payment methods does your country accept?
Same here, I started writing on medium but I don't know if it is even worth it if I would not be able to earn from it.
Thank you so much for this video - very helpful as someone researching how to do this! I am curious where your stats are now? Have you continued to grow and gain revenue and perhaps more cashflow now you've been on Medium longer? Or is it still just kind of double digits each month? (Apologies if you've addressed this in other videos - I only just stumbled across this video, but I subscribed and will check out your other videos to see if you are still active on Medium! Thank you!)
I did make one more update on Medium sharing how I made over $2K on one article. I'm only writing one weekly so I'm back down to the $100-200 range monthly. I was hitting $400-500 at one point. But it's really hit or miss. And by that I mean you need an article to go viral (and viral within Medium to paying subscribers, not free views via Google/social). Check out that video and good luck!!
Thanks for this video. I am wondering the time you created your own publication, how many followers did you have? The articles in your own publication were curated to whom? Your followers? The followers of this publication?
You got me at "What the heck is Medium"
Lol. That was my first question when I came across it!
Great medium insights ! 👍👍 So I need to be accepted by 3-4 publications to get real good traffic from medium ?
Great video ! I am new to Medium and this video helped a lot . Do you have any publications recommendations ?
Glad it was helpful! I write finance so I aim to publish in Making of a Millionaire, Post-grad survival guide (hard to get accepted), Fortune for Future, Start it Up, and Investor's Handbook. I also recommend Illumination, Long-term perspective (he has a UA-cam as well), Curious, Synergy, Tell Your Story, and Ascent! I started "The Money Resolution" publication. If you write finance feel free to send anything my way!
@@TheMoneyResolution Thank you so much for your recommendations!
Sensodyne toothpaste worked really well for me when I was having bad teeth problems. You're a good dude man, you already have the answers just like you said...life is what you are going to make it brother. Take care of yourself ◑
You said that your articles don't need to be original (it can be published from your own blog). If that is the case, do publications have a bias whether you are submitting them an original over a non-original one? Or they don't care so you can just submit to them your non-orig articles?
Ok, you seem cool and proficient as one who is successful turning their passion for writing into a living.
However, earning $42 in the first month of focusing on the Medium platform is hard for me to value as an aspiring writer.
I do see that its a good way to learn the craft by studying the most successful people as well as those just ahead of me in achieving results.
Thanks for this video, I subscribed.
great video by the way. I signed up to Medium in August and they must have changed the rules after your video, I need 100 followers to apply for the Partner Program. who would think!
Good to know!! Best of luck!
Hey, I have a question for you. I am a very curious individual and have a wide range of interests and knowledge in a variety of different fields and subjects. I am pursuing a Bachelors in Economics and that will be the foundation of all of my writings but at the sametime spreading out with a variety of different fields. I say all thato to ask is ok to not really have a specific niche but write on different subjects as long as the content has substance? Im a polymath and I guess you can say my niche is being a generalist. Is it also a good idea to publish my first story as a descriptive bio explaining who I am explaining what and why I do what I do to have a more personal and authentic relationship with my readers and audience?
Thank you for the info. I may have questions for you if possible to get a reply. I am from Seattle but reside in Bali. Cheers
Hey can u make a video on how to submit an application for those publications? Like how do i write under them?
Can you show exactly how to apply for publications?
It's different for all of them unfortunately. If you go to the publication page, they usually have a link on top (or bottom) explaining how to submit stories. For some, you can submit through a form. For others, you need to get accepted into the pub. I wish it was more simple. Some are very tough to get into and you may hear nothing for weeks, while your story sits unpublished. Might be best to start your own pub like I did (Money Resolution). Best of luck!!
Why is it so important to get accepted into a publication? Can't you just post your own article on Medium?
Correct. This is what I do now. Well, technically I started my own publication so I submit it to myself. I think bigger ones can help you with exposure but it was more stress to get into than it was probably worth it.
I don't understand any of this. How do you sign up with Google? Why do you sign up with Google? And yes, can't you just write articles?
42 bucks? Wow he worked too hard for that
It's gotten SO much better because I doubled down on it. I post around 10-15 articles a month still and stayed very consistent. Some months are slow ($100-$200) but I had my first $2K month in September - mainly with 1 viral article. You really need a viral article to make good money I'm finding. It's the second time this has happened. Otherwise, it's just a couple hundred tops. Let me know if you'd like to see a follow-up video!
Hi, what are the publications? How do you know a website is a publication?
This video was really really helpful to me as I am a beginner on Medium, What affects your income the most the claps or the views?
Views and average read duration I believe. I don't think claps help except perhaps the algorithm recommendation.
@@TheMoneyResolution thank you so much for your reply
thanks so much i want you to see my articles
Does longer articles earn more then short articles such as haikus and poem?
I believe you are correct!
Great video. Can you do an update? I see you have 3K followers on Medium, and I'd be curious about how the earning has increased. Thanks!
That was great, dude, don't you have something new about how you're currently doing?
I do! Here's my most recent. Let me know if you'd like to see more about Medium from me! ua-cam.com/video/8R6L_3yGgCo/v-deo.html
@The Money Resolution do you happen to know how to post your own pictures on Medium?
You can drop and drag from your computer. For caption write "Image by author". Hope that helps!
My understanding is that to get into the Partner Program, I need 100 followers. I haven't quite figured out how to get followers. The few articles I have posted to Medium got no responses, as far as I know. My question is How do I Get Started?
I love this as a future video idea I could make. Stay tuned!!
I’m still confused. Can I publish my blog posts from my own blog to medium?
Yes you can - if it's all your original work you can also post it there. You can even put at the top or bottom "Originally posted on (your blog URL)" and you might end up with a little traffic back to your blog.
Hi, I just started publishing on Medium about a week ago..how do people find your articles?? How do you get paid?? Do you have to be a member to make money??
Can you put books on medium? Right now I am waiting to here from support to re-activate my account. I tried to sign up for a new account but the system would not let my cell phone no. go through.
Question: Do you post your medium articles on your website blog too?
I don't but I wish I did. It's been on my list to do. At this point, I should outsource it! I only want to because I sell products on my site (courses, books). Otherwise, it might not be worth it unless you think it'll get enough eyeballs to bring on affiliate links
$1.33/day income? Sounds like a corporate job to me!
Lol yes, it’s slow to start for sure. Definitely more of a hobby and should be seen that way I think.
@@TheMoneyResolution If you're doing it purely to make money, you won't be successful I don't think. You have to love writing to stick with it long enough to gain traction. Most people will give up after they don't see thousands coming in every week within a month...
Love your humor.
How did my name appear here and can I change it?
Did I understand correctly that I should find 100 followers to start earn money? Or I couldn't earn if I'm in Georgia at all?
Medium partner program isn't available in my country. DO you have any recommended alternative platforms that are earning like Medium?
Hey, you found anything?
I’m looking for a place that really appreciate my exclusive content. Is Medium the right one?
It depends on the content. If it's longer-form, consider self-publishing a book like I have. OR consider a UA-cam channel if you have video skills. Or consider your own blog. But yes, I think Medium is a great place for your content! Plus, you can technically post that content elsewhere so it doesn't have to be exclusive.
How do I sign up as a medium partner if I'm in a country that doesn't support mediums?
What is the right time in a day to upload these articles? Also, I like to add Gifs in my articles. Do you think they have any side effects on reach?
Great question - I haven't seen any real differences on when to post. I've had success on weekdays and weekends. Typically they take days to gain traction so I wouldn't overthink that part. GIFs are great when used in the right moments. Don't overdo it - they can be a distraction :)
i had trouble adding images
I just drag and drop. Did you try that? It might only accept PNG and JPG images
Can I still earn from an article I already posted without joining the medium partner program?
I wrote two last summer and nada lol
Don't give up! It took me a few months to really settle in and make it worth it income-wise but it was fun and I learned a lot.

Do you know if reposting blog posts from Wordpress to medium is a good idea or is this bad for seo? Is automating the two a good idea?
SEO is bad for us
@@mcmerry2846 explain
@@Digitalcataloghubtry to browse something in Google or even UA-cam about lets say science, most likely you'll receive bad recommendations that dont fill your query... Because of SEO
how do you submit to publications?
First, you need to get added as a writer. Many of them require a quick form or comment that you'd like to be added. If you go to their pub - look for a "write for us" link on top. Once added, when done writing, clicks the dots and click add to publication. Then submit to pub. Some pubs make you submit articles via specific forms instead for each article using article draft links and it can get frustrating because you might not hear back. Or a week goes by and you get rejected and start applying again. It can be worth it though if it's a big one. Over time, you'll establish relationships with pubs. By now, I have 4 or 5 that accept everything I send them. Best of luck.
Isn't it not just about MONEY PAID but as a way TO GET CLIENTS??? Which of course leads to more money!
If we wanna publish artcles we shouls enroll or not on medium
can this works even if you are from the philippines?
I just joined medium and it says you need at least 100 followers to be partnered...im guessing you gotta do some writing for a while first to get those followers :-)
That might be a new update. I’ll look into it!
can I PUT MY PDF on it ?can I MAKE WRITING PRTOFOLIO ON IT ? can I WRITE ABOUT MEDICAL WRITING?
You cannot upload a PDF. However, you can create a new story and maybe copy/paste your writing!
Hi, Is there similar platforms like medium?
NewsBreak is another one I hear about. If you search for this on Medium, there are definitely articles that'll tell you where else you can write and earn!
@@TheMoneyResolution Is this available for Indians too?
I wrote 7 articles in two weeks and made absolutely no money
I get it. Keep at it though. You learn a ton by doing. Try to focus on fun and learning and don't focus on the money. Also, sometimes an old article pops months away out of nowhere! You never know!

First 30 days does this include the time trying get 100 followers so I can get paid????

Did you copyright your articles before publishing..
before i start writing sir im cheating with chatgpt lmfao
how much passive are you earning total??
I have a video breaking down my 8 streams of income you can find pretty easily!
How did you get 100 followers in order to apply for the partner program?
It sounds like this requirement was added after I joined!
first stopper, you have to pay to use it... and also the amount of requirements are just lame...
The only blockage i have here is the monthly $5. Though very small for some of you, I’m still a student and can’t afford that, and so i perish lmao
Hah totally understand. I set a goal to make $5 back from Medium as fast as possible. Maybe you can too! :)
its free to start writing if thats what you mean ?

Have you earned anything on Medium? If so, did your payment come with a 30% deduction?
In January, I earned around $1.40 USD and received $1.33 CAD.
Did I make a mistake in tax form?
