Would you like to make some extra cash? What about earning up to $1000 per month? Of course, you would just like everybody! Join Medium and write for them. You can earn money by writing about your favorite topics.





Have you heard of

? It's an online publishing platform that publishes articles. It was developed by Evan Williams and launched in August 2012. Evan Williams also founded several other Internet companies. He was previously chairman and CEO of Twitter. He also founded Blogger. Medium is owned by A Medium Corporation and was founded by Evan Williams.





Medium is an example of social journalism and has a collection of amateur and professional people and publications, or exclusive blogs or publishers on Medium. It is mostly regarded as a blog host.





Medium encourages users to create posts longer than the 140 character limit of Twitter. According to wikipedia.org, when it launched in 2012, Williams stated, "There's been less progress toward raising the quality of what's produced."





Medium is definitely a platform for anyone who wants to write and share something important. You can write about anything you want at Medium. All you have to do is make it interesting enough!













Yes. It is possible to earn money but to enhance your experience of earning money with Medium they say you should sign up for their Medium's Partner Program. Of course, you don't have to do this and you can still earn money but it may not be a great amount. You can then publish anything that you have already written on your blog.

Here is what you should do if you want to earn money writing for Medium













1. Sign up to Medium's Partner Program which is $5 per month. Now, I don't usually like to pay to write on any platform but because Medium is so popular, I gave it a try and I am just starting to earn a bit of money from it. You can choose not to write there without joining Medium's Partner Program and still earn money from what I have gathered but I have heard it's possible to earn a generous amount when you are in the program. The reason for this is because each person in the program can then read all articles on Medium, therefore, they are unlocked. If you are not in the program you only get to read three Medium articles per month. This means that everyone in the program can read articles as much as they want and when this happens you will earn money. Claps for an article will now help it to be seen by others.





You will no doubt earn your money back and more from what I have read so far from other writers who have stated and who are already established, and have earned quite a bit with Medium so far. Here are a few people who have been successful with Medium. Read their articles below.

Getting as many claps as you can is what will now help others see your work. Sometimes, people will love an article and just give you claps but even if they don't you will still earn money from them reading it.
