A Qualitative Analysis of Writing on Medium for 6 Months

What does the data say about making money on Medium?

I’m still in shock that it’s already July. Like where did all the time go?

After 6 months on Medium, I can confidently say that I am not a successful case study of someone who can make a lot of money on Medium. I still need to keep my day job (luckily, I love it) and I will continue to have one for the foreseeable long-term future.

However, I’ve really enjoyed my writing on Medium and feel that I’ve learned a lot from the process.

So thank you Amardeep for your insightful article written a year ago, as it still resonated with me today, and heavily inspired me to write this one.

So that’s what I’m doing. Unfortunately, I don't go as in-depth with my data (I wish I had recorded tags and article length!) as Amardeep, but there are still some interesting insights that could be valuable to other writers (hopefully!).

As of the end of June, these are the following milestones I’ve reached on Medium

Relatively speaking, based on my current projections, I’ve been slowly but surely increasing my income little by little. I technically have not made it to the $100 club on Medium (without the bonuses, that is), however, I am seeing a positive upward trend of my income per month.
