I have! You can watch it, here: th-cam.com/video/UYY4BYlc5bY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HdRHmLDFoUbm2yyg 🙌@@jeebanjyoti985
Great video 👍. I want to start writing on medium and make money via affiliate marketing. Can you make a video showing how to make money via affiliate marketing on medium in 2024?
Sure! I'll add it to my list. 🙂✅@@ekeneduaka6888
Thanks Hudson, I’m a new subscriber and have binge watched your Medium videos 😊
I've been on Medium for four months now, and I'm really loving it. In the first month, I made almost $2. Now, in the fourth month, I'm on track to make over $70. I've found that being authentic and providing genuine value, whether it's educational or entertaining, is what truly resonates with people. So, to everyone out there, keep at it, find your voice and good luck!
Awesome! Congrats on the early success. This is really good advice.😎🙌
How many articles per month to u write bro
@@simmavineeth9228 Usually 1 per week. Although, I haven't been posting on Medium in the last few weeks as I've been focusing more on TH-cam and Substack. 🙂🙌
Can I be posting blog posts from my website?
Did you receive your payout or it should be $100 for withdraw???
this was very helpful especially as a beginner wanting the ins & outs of how to get started on medium , im def feeling more confident and looking forward to this journey.
Awesome! That's great to hear. 🙂🙌
This is the first video that should be on every new writer's
start list.
This step by step guide has not missed any important points.
They are goals that can be noted and worked on.
Thanks.
What a great compliment! You are appreciated, as always. 🙂🙌
Thanks@@hudsonrenniewrites
This is the best video about joining Medium successfully as a writer. As a long-term writer and editor, I endorse every point here. Thank you for introducing ILLUMINATION and contributing to this pub, giving voice to every ethical writer at any level.
That's great to hear! I've always had positive experiences publishing with Illumination. I appreciate what you do. 🙂🙏
Definitely 👍👍
🙂🙌@@khadijaboumehdi3696
Thanks so much. I was wondering how to get started on Medium but you just lit my path with this video. Thumbs up man.
Awesome! I appreciate you. 🙂🙌
Thank you for this. I used to write quite frequently for various online pages getting ad revenue (Hubpages, anyone?). I haven't in over 12 years but I STILL get passive income every few months from the handful of articles I have put out there. Recently, I've been feeling a bit bitter about my day job which is more technical in nature and no longer relies on my writing -- but I miss writing. Perhaps it's time to put my had back in the ring. It's exciting to think about. Pretty sure I'll be signing up for Medium in the coming days. I was a pretty dedicated Medium reader before their paywall hit -- now I can look at it in a whole new way. Subscribed. I'll be back. Much thanks, again.
Nice! I'm glad to be of inspiration. Always feel free to reach out with questions. 🙂🙌
This is my third video of yours now, and I have to say thank you so very much. I have been researching like a madwoman trying to figure out where I want to write online. Now, I feel extremely confident to start with Medium. But more importantly, you have given me the tools I need to be successful! 💕💕
Awesome! That's great to hear. I appreciate you. 🙂🙌
Thank you so much, this was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for providing a clear and thorough description on how to get started. I will for sure check out your other videos.
Awesome! I’m glad to hear it. Always feel free to leave questions on future videos. I respond to comments every week and always enjoy learning how I can help. 🙂 🙌
Hi Hudson, just wanted to stop and thank you for such a great video. I've watched several videos on starting out on Medium as a new writer. This one is gold. I'll be referencing back for sure.
Awesome! That's great to hear. I appreciate you. ☺🙌
Great great video Hudson! Thank you so much for so much value!🎉🎉
Awesome! You're very welcome. 🙂🙌
Hudson, thank you for sharing the tips and exact strategies to get started on Medium. This is exactly what I was looking for!
Awesome! You're very welcome. 😇🙏
Good info. Thank you for sharing. I’m new on medium and want to have the best experience possible. I’m focused on connecting with other writers.
Glad to see that I made it in one of your videos at 9:30
I love to learn from your content and appreciate you sharing this with us!
For anyone wondering if this advice worked for me, it definitely did! Made $38 within 32 days writing as a noob.
Haha, yes! I was wondering if you'd see this. And, that's great to hear about your first month. That's much better than I did in my first month.🥳👏
Excited for the future!@@hudsonrenniewrites
your video reached me at the perfect time - thank you SO much for your advice and tips!!
Awesome! That's great to hear. 🙂🙌
Hi Hudson - thank you for this great primer on Medium - it's exactly what I needed to jump back into it. I was one of the annoyed ones from the changes (and the mess of AI articles), and gave up on it, but going to give it another go. Ths answered a lot of questions about getting distributed (curated/boosted), whether to submit to publications still (YES!), and what to write on. It's more fun than delivering Uber Eats- so making it my next side hustle!
😊
Nice! That's great to hear. And, I totally agree. It's much more motivating to make money doing something you're passionate about. 🙂🙌
Im glad i stumbled upon this video! I am a musician, an amateur blogger and ex-content writer. I am thinking about getting back to content writing and blogging and your video has given me a lot of clarity i must say! Thank you so much man! I wish you the best! 😊👍🏻
Nice! I'm glad to hear it. You're very welcome. 🙂🙌
This is the best video about medium.
Thank you
Awesome! I appreciate you. 🙂🙏
This is such a helpful video! Thank you Hudson.
You're very welcome. 🙂🙌
This video was so helpful; thank you so much!!
Awesome! You're very welcome. 🙂🙌
Super useful! Thanks for your insightful tips.
That's great! You're welcome. 🙂🙌
This is so helpful, clear and succinct. Thank you!
Awesome! That's great to hear.🙂 🙏
Thank you for this Medium tutorial. I am just starting out and found the information you presented to be very helpful. I was just about to publish my first story which happened to be an "about me" article. I think I may now save that for my second article so I can submit it at the same time as applying for monetization. This was definitely worth the watch!
Awesome! I'm glad to hear it. Always feel free to leave comments with questions as you continue writing. 🙂🙌
Very well summarized everything I need to know to start writing on Medium. Thanks!
Awesome! You're very welcome. 😃🙌
this is so helping for beginner! thank you
Awesome! 😀🙌
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! 🙂🙏
Hey Hudson, great video and perfect timing just when I was about to publish my 1st article ever 🥶 thank you
Nice! That's exciting. 🥳👏
Very well-done content between tons of confusing tutorials out there!!
Awesome! I appreciate you. 🙂🙏
Awesome video bro, I really love the part about mutual engagement. It makes so much sense if everybody can get a piece of the pie. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! That's great to hear. And, you're welcome. 🙂🙌
Yes i also found that helpful. I’m focused on connecting with other writers.
I just came across this video, very helpful since I am only starting out! Can't help but notice you have blue eyes, can't resist a comment on that either!
Awesome! And, hehe, yes, I do. 😄🙌
Thank you it was helpful ❤🙏👍
Awesome! You're very welcome. 🙌
great video. I can’t wait to begin.
Awesome! Always feel free to reach out with questions. 🙂🙌
Nice video, useful info to get started.
😃🙌
I'm on medium also because of you ☀️ thank you. I'm watching every video from your channel. God bless you 🙏🙏 I will write an article at the end of the month to share my thoughts and experience
Yay! That's great to hear. I appreciate you. 🙂🙌
That is great.
Great information Hudson thank you. It gives me a basis of what I need to do. I am now part of the program I only have one article right now.
Awesome! Always feel free to ask questions as you continue writing. 🙂🙌
Thank you for this Hudson! This was the best video I've seen yet. You gained a new follower :) One step that changed is that there's no wait for approval. I was approved right away.
Yay! I appreciate you. 🙂🙌
I also was immediately approved to partner program. I then made a Stripe account (in Canada). What I'm wondering is, I had 3 articles published before I did the partner program 2 nights ago. Can those articles begin to earn now that I have a stripe dashboard? I'm slowly gaining views and reads on my 3 articles but the money earned still shows --. Not sure if it takes time for money to start showing up? Thanks.!
@@mikecorazza4294 So, the articles will start earning from any new views you get after joining the Partner Program. As soon as your stories accrue new reads, your earnings should show up within 24 hours. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites Thanks for the reply, Hudson! I just posted my first article this morning (since being approved for the program). I noticed that little pop up after publishing on how this article will be included in the partner program. What I'm worried about, are the first few articles I wrote, especially the very first one which was a story about me surviving a cardiac arrest at 41, and seeing an interview with Colbert and Cooper about learning to love the things we wish most not happened. I really feel like I composed a great piece of work, and it's from my heart, not AI generated, I think the formatting looks decent. So I'm hoping I checked the boxes of what the Medium curators would eventually consider a boostable story. ** But can these 3 articles published before I was approved for partner program now be eligible to earn money? If not, maybe I have to repost it somehow? Thanks so much - I've been watching your videos and learning a lot (except the part where I should have done an about me first :( )
@@hudsonrenniewrites Hey again. I figured out how to go back, edit the article, and then click the 3 little dots at the top right, you can "manage paywall" and now have older articles as part of partner program. I just hope that these articles that have only been out a week or so, won't be hurt by me being part of the partner program. I really want to learn and understand how to put my articles into publications and will watch more of your content on that. I'm assuming this will help push my articles out there in a more targeted way! Thanks again
Great video.
Thank you! 🙂🙌
Important to mention: in order to get paid by Medium you need a STRIPE account. This is the only way. Sad but true. No paypal, no bank account, worst of all: no crypto (or does Stripe crypto, too?)
Yes, it's too bad. Just Stripe (I don't think Stripe does crypto either). 🥲The only other option for monetization on Medium is to promote affiliate links. 💰
This video is worth my time for real! Thanks a lot! However I didn't quite understand what you recommend on publishing on my profile and on publications?
Awesome! And, you can do either -- I've seen writers find success self-publishing. But, to gain more views, it's generally better to submit to publications. 🙂🙌
Thank you for ensuring you have a video for each step on how to do well on medium. I am just getting interested in monetizing on medium. I have been on it since 2015, but I stopped writing in a few years. Now, I am ready to go forward. My question is, how do I make my profile? Mine is blank. If you have any tips on how to do that, I would love to read it. You do a great job helping people. I respect that. Thank you.
Good for you for coming back! As for your profile, I would:
1. Add a picture (it doesn't have to be your face if you don't want)
2. Keep your bio simple: you can write "I'm [your name]. I write about [your interests]"
As for customizing your profile (banner, font, etc.), I wouldn't bother unless you really want to. The most important things are to have a picture and your bio filled out. I hope that helps! 🙂🙌
Thank you again. I got it. Now I can make the profile with confidence. You are the best!@@hudsonrenniewrites
Will give it a try. I joined Medium last year Oct 2023
Manage to break even $150 of friend of medium fee. But the daily profit don’t seem to grow much. $4 to $5 while others make like $30 to $40. And mostly on making making niche and medium related earning got the most readers. Base on my opinion
Thanks for this , I will follow to see what I can achieve
Awesome! Always feel free to leave comments with questions. 🙂🙌
either they targeting their audience or they come from writing backgrounds from other sites.... lol
Excellent video Hudson, and partially the reason why I'm looking at Medium again after a number of negative videos. Are you saying then that Medium has become a bit more social media-like in its approach? You have to court attention in order to stay seen (and stay paid)? Not necessarily a bad thing, I just need to learn the rules of the game!
Thanks! And, yes. In my experience, Medium is a social media platform. It's very hard to gain traction without engaging with others. Personally, I feel it's the most important habit for writers. 🙂🙌
Hello Hudson, thank you for outlining the starter strategy, super useful! Is Armenia eligible for the Medium Partner programme?
Awesome! And, Armenia is not currently eligible. 🥲
Thanks for the video, Hudson! Apart from personal articles, how do other genres fare on medium? What about book reviews?
Book reviews can be really popular! Self-improvement, psychology, health/wellness, and relationships also tend to perform well. 🙂🙌
Out of curiosity, does Illumination require only drafts? Or can you publish first, then ask for it to be added to the pub?
Hi Hudson! Thanks for an informative video. How does Medium feel about including affiliate links in your article/story?
You're very welcome! And, they allow affiliate links. You just need to disclose that they are affiliate links. 🙂🙌
Thank you for this content,it's useful!Do you know if you can publish the same articles in many platforms?For exemple on Medium and on Vocal?
Awesome! And, yes, you can. You own the content you publish on Medium, so you can repurpose it however you like. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites thank you."Which platform out of these two do you believe is the best to start with?"
@@WonderfulMeals4You Medium is the best place to start, in my opinion. Vocal Media has a very small user base and I haven't heard of any writers earning any substantial money from it. 💰
Hi Hudson, I am now setting out to join and write on medium. Your advice was very helpful and I will follow it. Is the fee on medium a monthly fee like readers or is it one time for writers.
Awesome! And, the fee is monthly. 🙂🙌
Aye Hudson can you explain the process of starting your own Medium publication & the Newsbreak Publications?
I've never created a Newsbreak publication, but I go over how to start a Medium publication in this video: th-cam.com/video/UsLkGWTCjQI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OF83xMOWfc1Xtb0B 🙂🙌
It seems like few influencers are talking about Medium anymore. It seems the changes last fall poured water on the enthusiasm.
Yes, I totally agree. I've also pulled back the amount of effort I put into Medium. I still like and recommend it to new writers. But, it definitely has changed. 🥲
In what sense has it changed from before?
The pay is the main thing -- but, more specifically, how pay is calculated. In the past, earnings metrics were more straightforward, making it easier to bank on consistent earnings. But, now, the success of articles is based on more subjective metrics. @@Phil-dt3od
That's a bummer@@hudsonrenniewrites
Great video. Thank you. I wanna write about more than three subjects. I would classify them under "tech" "life" and "??" umbrella?
You totally can! You don't have to stick to a niche if you don't want to. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites Thank you
Great video 👍. I want to start writing on medium and make money via affiliate marketing. Can you make a video showing how to make money via affiliate marketing on medium in 2024?
Sure! I'll add it to my list. 🙂✅
Hi Hudson, do you need to submit to publications to be successful or can you just self publish and engage with others who either comment on your article or leave comments on other articles you find interesting? Thanks!
You don't need publications, but personally, I do find them helpful. Whenever I self-publish, I find I get less views. But, it's not necessary -- Medium will Boost self-published stories and many writers are successful without publications. 🙂🙌
Thank you so much ❤...Is it possible from Bangladesh?
Not through the Medium Partner Program. 🥲But, you can still create a free account, write, and earn through affiliate links from anywhere in the world. ✍
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
😀🙌
If a publication accepts one of your articles, does it have any effect on the copyright or ability to do anything with that material elsewhere at a future date?
Nope! You own all of your Medium content -- regardless of where it's published. 🙂✅
Interesting video, although the amount of cuts is irritating to say the least.
Thanks! Haha, I apologize. To be honest, that's because of my stutter. As I become more fluent, I won't have to add in as many cuts. I'm working on it! 🤞🙌
Thanks for sharing! Is that possible for one writer write in different fields in Medium? or better to open more accounts?
Yes! You can write about whatever you'd like. And, it's totally up to you. Personally, I write about multiple topics and keep it all on one profile. Splitting it up can be smart, but you'll also have to have multiple membership fees. 🙂💭
@@hudsonrenniewrites Thanks a lot for your answer it's great.
@@Joxu-yu8yq You're welcome! 🙌
Can you publish to more than one place, like the same article to more than just illumination? And when promoting my articles outside of medium how would that article be linked? The whole article itself, just the link, or special citation format?
I don't think there's a specific rule about it, but publications generally won't publish something that's already been published on Medium. As for how to cite your articles, you can just add a link to the article. If you hit the little "..." at the top of your article, there will be a "share" button. You can copy + paste that to wherever you'd like to promote it. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites thank you for your reply, I wanted to make sure since it seems to be fairly straightforward to following your tutorial, so I wanted to see what the next steps would be after I get accepted into elimination. I wanted to prevent myself from being restricted to just one publication if there's a secondary one that would be more beneficial and closer related to interests.
Totally. You can apply and submit to as many publications as you'd like. Just not with the same article. 🙌@@Twinkle-Winkle
Thank you. Do you pay $50 or $150 for partner on medium?
I pay the Friend of Medium tier -- so, $15 per month. 🙂🙌
How do you publish your medium articles on vocal media...?
If you go to vocal.media, you can sign up and then just copy + paste them. 🙂👏
Hello. I'm a TH-cam scriptwriter, but I'm currently exploring other avenues to make money online. Recently, I started publishing articles on Medium, and I'm also a member. However, I've discovered that I can't earn or monetize my articles due to an issue with Stripe account. Unfortunately, my country (the Philippines) is not eligible for Stripe. Do you have any suggestions for me to make money with Medium? Are you incorporating affiliate links into your articles? If yes, and if it's okay with you, may I know how much you've earned by promoting affiliate links in your articles?
Ah, that's too bad. 🥲 In terms of earning on Medium without joining the Partner Program, affiliate links are your next best option. Personally, I don't use them very often on Medium, so I can't give you an accurate figure. But, I know many writers who earn anywhere from $10 - $200 per article promoting affiliate links -- generally AI tools.
I'll actually be making a video on it soon. But, for now, I hope this helps! 🙌
That's good do you think you can make more than 1000 a month and go even higher If so what would you do to add to your medium income?
You definitely can. I often have $1,000+ months. I think the most important thing is to have a base of engaged readers who read all of your stories. It helps give them a boost in the algorithm. Once you have a library of profitable stories, earnings become more consistent. 🙂🙌
You need a membership to even see about me rules. How do I submit to the publisher without a premium membership?
Hmmm, that's a good question. 🤔If their guidelines are now paywalled you'll likely need to be a paying member to submit to them. I think since Medium removed free stories for non-paying members, most publications will require you to be a paying member. But, I'll see if I can find any that accept non-members. 🙂🙌
Hey, how about works of fiction on Medium? Are short stories or a novel split into various parts lucrative? And how about interactive ones? Cheers.
It's a great question. I don't have a definitive answer as I don't write fiction. But, generally speaking, it seems to be less lucrative than non-fiction articles. With that said, earnings are all about read time. So, if you write engaging stories people want to read, anything can become lucrative. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites Thank you for the quick reply!
You're welcome! You caught me at the perfect time, haha. 😆🙌@@MrMastera
What's your take on how long the article is? Shorter? Longer?
Personally, I aim for 5-8 minutes of read time (around 1,000 - 2,000 words). This is on the longer side, but because I only post once per week, the longer read time contributes to higher earnings.
🙂🙌
Can I learn Content Writing
I love reading books , and working 12-14 hrs every single day except Sundays Somehow I always find little cracks of free time where I can Read .
I wants to write all these learning and experiences but I don’t know where to start and how to start ??
And what all I can Practice to learn Writing??
Medium sounds like a great place for you to start. Hopefully this video points you in the right direction. 🙂🙌
Which is the best platform to write on? For ROÍ
For ROI, In my opinion, Newsbreak. 🙂🙌
can we use it chatgpt or any ai writer for making articles? is that any problem using ai
You can technically use on A.I., but they generally don't perform well. If you're going to use A.I., I would recommend only generating drafts and then adding a human element to your stories. 🙌
Is it smarter to start writing and posting before you join the partner program? And if so can you still see analytics if you arent a partner?
I always think it's best to apply for the Partner Program as soon as you can. As for the stats, you'll still be able to see them as a non-member, but I don't think earnings will show up. 🙂🙌
@hudsonrenniewrites ok thank you. I do want to do the partner program but I'm gonna try to build a consistent following first before I commit. Thank you!
Totally! Although, food for thought, it can be helpful to make that initial investment to hold yourself accountable. Sometimes, if you don't have to do something you won't. But, knowing you've made an investment can help motivate you to be consistent.🙂🙌@@Nintendoshi
Hello Hudson, I live in Nigeria and there is unfortunately no way I can register with my current location. Do you know any other wesites that are like Medium,please.
You can try Newsbreak. Or, you can still write on Medium but promote affiliate links instead of earning from the Medium Partner Program. 🙂🙌
I am deeply passionate about Football, so can I have started writing on Medium about football, so which publication shall I apply for
Hmm, that's a good question. You can search under the tag 'sports' to see where other writers are publishing. But, Illumination will publish articles on any topic. 🙂🙌
Can I just start writing straight away without a membership and get a membership later once I have published 4-5 articles? Will I be able to monetize those articles?
Once you monetize your account, you can turn on the paywall on your past stories. But, you'll only start getting paid for new views you accrue -- not the views the stories gained in the past. 🙌
@hudsonrenniewrites Hi. I see. Thanks for the response. I was wondering if I could post a few stories first and get a good idea of how things work before getting a membership. What would you suggest?
@@batgamer0676 Yep, you totally can. You can even start writing with a free account to see how you like it. Personally, I would apply for the Partner Program as soon as you can, just because there's no downside. But, either way is great. 🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites Understood. Thanks for the help!
@@batgamer0676 You're welcome! 🙌
Could I share knowledge about Traditional Chinese Medicine in Medium?
Yes! Health and fitness is actually a really big niche on Medium. 🙂🙌
What is the minimum threshold for payout on medium??
I believe it's $5. 🤔💭
Hey you mentioned 1. Apply to partner programs. I am from India. Am I eligible
Currently, no. 🥲 Here's the list of eligible countries:
help.medium.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003928833-Setting-up-payouts-with-Stripe
Although, there are many writers from India on Medium. So, there must be a way. I'll look deeper into it. 🤔💭
Sir i have medium account but how can i increase my reads?
This is probably the best video I've made on increasing reads/earnings on Medium: th-cam.com/video/rH7v9jQXMOg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6xf_mH9kZOLkmbWq 🙂🙌
Can you become a medium partner right away or is it like TH-cam where you need a certain amount of followers/readers/subscribers?
You can apply right away! You just need to have written at least one story in the past 60 days. 🙌
I created an account a few days ago and I've made $4.49 on one story so far. Not a lot but it's a good feeling to write stories and have people read them.
@@bubbles4breakfast Nice! That's actually a really good start. I think I only earned a few pennies from my first few stories. 🙂👏
For my first story, can i submit it then go ahead and publish it myself as well?
Most publications only accept unpublished drafts. So, generally, you have to choose whether you want to self-publish or submit to a publication. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites thank you.
You're welcome! 🙌@@Njitagwo_Shiro
I am confused. Do I submit my "About Me" story to a publication or do I publish it to my profile?
You can do either -- submitting to the publication "About Me Stories" will help you get more views. But, if you just want to post something quickly to apply to the Medium Partner Program, you can publish it directly to your profile. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites Thank you for the clarification. Love the Channel!!!!!
You're welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Always feel free to ask questions -- it helps me to understand what to focus on.🙂🙏@@SWarren958
Can I publish my stories both on my profile and on publications?
Not the same story -- you need to choose whether you self-publish or submit to a publication. 🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites Do you get paid for publishing your articles to publications?
Yes. And, you still own the content. ✅💸@@Nsab22
How many words are articles
They can be any length you'd like! But, to maximize earnings, I generally aim for 5-8 mins (1,000 - 2,000 words). 🙂🙌
Brother I am from India and I can't join the partners program as they don't have this service in India. What should I do as I have already bought it's membership and I am eager to work in medium.
Ah, yes. Hopefully, they open it up soon. 🥲 If you'd still like to write on Medium, you can always promote affiliate links and build your audience while you wait for the Partner Program to open up.
@@hudsonrenniewrites yes I am not giving up though, thankyou.
Excellent video brother, I learned a lot. And of course, as I want to continue to learn, I subscribed. And you know something, and this is going to make me wildly unpopular I imagine. But here the creators are working to produce value each and every day and all for the hope..the HOPE of someone someday subscribing. And for Gods sake man, it's phreaking free! I'm seriously thinking about making my channel subscriber only.
Nice! That's great to hear. 🙌 And, LOL, yes, TH-cam is a tough game. 😅
How do you feel about Medium vs Substack
It's a great question! I've only just started experimenting with Substack, so I think time will tell. I plan on making a video soon, though, sharing my experience. 🙂🙌
Is there a minimum word count on Medium?
Nope! Your stories can be as long or short as you'd like. 🙂🙌
Is it possible to earn from medium in non supported countries as I have bank account of USA WISE account
Hmmm, I'm not sure about that specific bank. But, if you're unable to sign up for Stripe, your next best option is to earn through affiliate links. 🙌
You mentioned to try at least three publications. Does that mean that one story can be submitted to three publications or did you mean submit three different stores to three different publications?
You can only submit one story to one publication at a time. But, in general, I think it's smart to have multiple publications to submit to. If one publication decides not to publish your story, you can try another. It's also helpful if you write about multiple topics. 🙂🙌
Good info. Thank you for sharing. I’m new on medium and want to have the best experience possible. I’m focused on connecting with other writers.
@@gretchenlodderhose9273 Nice! I think that's a good strategy. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites thank you. I’m enjoying medium, I’ve written two stories so far. I really appreciate you for posting this❤️
@@gretchenlodderhose9273 Nice! That's great to hear. You're very welcome. 🙂🙌
I don’t have stripe but wise how can i get paid ?
If you can't sign up for Stripe, your next best option would be to promote affiliate links in your stories. 🙌
I'm a newbie.
Let me know what questions come up! I respond to comments, every week, and I love learning how I can help. 🙂🙌
So you have to partner with them before you start earning?
Yes. You need to join the Medium Partner Program to earn from reads/views. 😌💰
Hi Hudson I'm from Pakistan i really like your vedio.

Pakistan is not currently eligible. 🥲
hello. so sometimes Medium tells me my location is not eligible for payout
Hmm, where do you live? 🤔🗺
Kenya
@@hudsonrenniewrites
i live in Kenya@@hudsonrenniewrites
If I post 1 article everyday? Do think it will help grow an audience? And eventually earn?
Yes. But, personally, I've found mutual engagement to be the most effective habit when you're first starting out. 🙂🙌
Thank you!😊 can you ellaborate?
I go over it in this video: th-cam.com/video/rH7v9jQXMOg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HRw3R6kRoj0xsHW0 🙌@@KhadijaGourri

Unfortunately, Medium hasn't released a date. 🥲
Did you say i have to send my email and medium id to the illumination ?
Yes, you need to fill out all the information on their application form: digitalmehmet.com/contact/ 🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites if i provide my id to illimination what will happend then??
@@hudsonrenniewrites according to your video i created account i uploaded my story but my profile is not going to eanr because i am not in partner group
After you fill out the application and apply, they will send you an email letting you know you've been approved. ✅@@calligraphymaster2421
Yes, you must apply to the Partner Program to turn on monetization. 💸@@calligraphymaster2421
How about payment method and withdraw your profit money?
All payments are made via Stripe -- which deposits straight into your bank account. 💰
@@hudsonrenniewrites Thanks 🌹
You're welcome! 🙌@@abdullalulu
If there would be a summary of the video.. What would the steps to have a successful long audience? I have a lot of gym friends I already see an opening. There's a chat in face book filled with friends from the gym.
I would say:
- Post at least once per week
- Leave comments on stories from everyone who engages with your stories
- Find 2-3 publications you vibe with and submit to them often
Other than that, it's just a process of trial, error, and learning what works best for you. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites if you publish 8 stories a day would you get banned
Nope. Not unless you're violating any of Medium's terms and conditions. 👍✅@@Master_of_love777
@@hudsonrenniewrites Awesome thank you right now the small problem I have is that it is asking for w9 or something like that. This only my parents know and they are perplexed about the situation. They don't know about medium. They said that depending on what they will find out about that they will allow me to engage in it. However they still haven't made the decision they didn't said that they were not going to do it. They just said that they were going to search medium up first. I'm a step closer to being paid.
Nice! Well, hopefully, they let you write on it. If it helps, I've been writing on Medium for years and have never had any issues with payment. It's definitely a legitimate platform. The W9 tax form is also really simple to fill out. Best of luck. 🙌@@Master_of_love777
4:48 - So this 19.4K is for this article and $2,103.53 is lifetime?
Yes, those are lifetime views and earnings for the article. 🙂🙌
@@hudsonrenniewrites So it's $108 CPM? It's super high.
If there are two articles with the same engagement but different topics, for example one about insurance and the other one about cats, do the earning differ, or because there are no ads just subscription it doesn't matter?
Yes! That was a great article. I wish they all performed that well. 😆🤞
And, in terms of the topics, there will be no difference in pay. Earnings are based on a combination of read ratio, read time, and user engagement. So, it's all about getting people to click, read, and engage with your stories -- regardless of the topic. @@vesogry
