Welcome to my guide on “How to make $1000+ writing on Medium” So, you want to make $1,000 (or more) just by writing on Medium? Great choice. You could be writing your way to a nice chunk of change—without needing to sell your soul, your data, or 17 different online courses you barely finished. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s actually possible to earn real money typing out your thoughts and stories on a blogging platform, I’m here to tell you: yes, it is. And no, you don’t need to be the next Hemingway or have a viral post that breaks the internet.
Medium is one of the few platforms where writers—yes, regular people with keyboards and caffeine addictions—can actually get paid for their words. The Medium Partner Program lets you earn based on how much time paying members spend reading your content. Think of it as Netflix royalties… but for blog posts. And while $1,000+ might sound like a big goal, many writers (myself included) have hit that mark through consistency, strategy, and a little creative flair.
In this article, I’m going to break down exactly how you can do it too. From understanding how Medium pays its writers, to picking topics that don’t make readers snore, to growing an audience that actually wants to read what you write—this guide covers it all. Whether you’re a seasoned blogger or someone who just found out Medium isn’t a T-shirt size, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive in and get you on your way to that sweet, sweet writing income.
I’ve written an extensive guide on this. You can explore it here >>
