Unfortunately, not every writer is eligible for the Medium Partner Program.

You cannot join the Medium Partner Program if you are not based in specific European countries, the United States, or other Stripe-enabled countries. This implies you won't be able to make money if Medium users pay to view your material.

There are alternative money-making possibilities accessible if you still want to make use of Medium's vast reach.

Although Medium does not pay you on a monthly basis, you may still earn a reasonable living by publishing great material on the platform.

Here are five alternatives to generate money if you don't want to participate in the Medium Partner Program:

Increase the number of visitors to your blog

If you run a monetized blog, Medium can help you attract visitors to it. Medium has a Domain Authority of 95, indicating that search engines prefer Medium over many other websites.

Domain authority is a search engine ranking metric that assesses a website's authority. The ratings range from 0 to 100, indicating that Medium is one of the most popular websites on the internet.

Adding your blog's links to Medium can help you get more visitors to your site

You may repost your blog material on Medium, but if you want to drive traffic to your site, I wouldn't recommend it. Create content for Medium that is original, valuable, and entertaining. If you blog three times a week, publish twice as often on Medium and include a call to action at the conclusion of each article.

In the body of the post, include a link to your blog, and in the call to action, include a link to your opt-in page. You may offer great, instructive information once a week to readers who provide their name and email address when they subscribe to your site.

Create a mailing list

Your email list is like a cash cow for you. If you're an affiliate marketer, the most crucial component of your company is establishing an email list, thus use Medium to do that. Building your email list is essential if you're a blogger, online company owner, or side hustler.

Affiliate marketing is a type of marketing in which you

Affiliate marketing is a successful business concept, but creating a solo site from scratch, especially for newcomers, is challenging. As a result, you may use Medium's power to drive people to your opt-in page. Although you can guide visitors to your affiliate offers, this is not recommended, especially if you want to establish a loyal client base.

Sign up for affiliate programs like Builderall or Clickfunnels if you're new to affiliate marketing. Every professional affiliate marketer requires these tools. As a result, you may suggest these items to your audience as you begin to expand your affiliate company. You earn a commission when people click on your affiliate links and buy anything.

Create a full-fledged online business

By posting articles on Medium, you can practically establish a whole online company. Here's how to do it:

  • In the same niche, start a YouTube channel.
  • Post on Medium on a regular basis.
  • Consistently upload to YouTube

Medium is a great place to share your YouTube stuff. (Embed your video into your Medium article or copy and paste the URL when you post a piece of material that pertains to your video.)

Join an affiliate program or create a digital product that you believe in.

Use Medium and YouTube to grow your email list.

To help you expand your YouTube channel, use Medium.

To market your products/services, use both Medium and YouTube.

Use Medium to Create a Portfolio

You'll need a portfolio as a freelance writer. The Medium can help you create a strong online portfolio. You may also establish a reputation as a writer by submitting your work to reputable journals such as Start it Up.

When applying for employment online, all you have to do is copy and paste your profile or article links into your job proposal email, and you're done!

Sponsored Articles

You can get compensated for sponsored articles if you have a large, active following. Beauty businesses, for example, may pay you to write content about their goods if you create material on skincare. On Medium, you can essentially become an online influencer.

You may sign up with numerous agencies to get connected with appropriate businesses, but you can also contact brands directly. I regularly cold pitch businesses and I am now working with three sponsors on my other Medium accounts.
