How to Write Articles That Always Make Money on Medium

3 tips to write money making articles

Write Articles That Will Continuously Attract Attention and Readership.

I put the answer up there for everyone to read and digest. The easiest way to make money on Medium overtime is to write compelling articles that continuously grip the reader’s attention. While there are a plethora of methods that allow writers to make money on this platform such as affiliate sales and advertising, the surefire way to maintain a continued stream of income from Medium alone is to continue writing articles that help people. To assist new writers with what articles exactly fit this bill, here are some tips I have found to assist me in successfully conducting this endeavor.

1. Write About Topics That Have High Interest

Topics that have high interest include money, finance, investing, technology, love and romance, comedy, self improvement, mental health, startups, and tutorials for things like data analysis, electronics, etc. Typically, think of the stuff you google to find answers for and ask yourself how many results often pop up that are listed on Medium. Much of the time, there are a lot of re-posted topics published on Medium. This requires you to figure out if what you want to write about will pull enough traffic from Medium’s readers and from search engines like Google. Getting placed at the top of the search results for highly sought after fields will bring lots of readers.

2. Write to Guide and Advise

This is an easy point. Your writing should always be setup to provide guidance and advising to those who read it. If your articles lack this element, they will probably not be successful in continuously attracting readership. In every article you release, you should be providing some kind of action that the reader can choose to pursue. Rather, it would be reading more about a subject (which I don’t recommend too much) or pursuing an activity. It is important your reader feels they have options after reading your articles. If you aren’t providing actionable items for your readers to take, they will probably not return to your article after reading it once.

3. Always Provide Updates

The final tip is to always provide updates on your articles. If you find new information or uncover a new way of doing something, share it with the world by writing another article and clearly stating that it’s a follow up to the former article. This tells your readers that you genuinely care about the subject and that you are clearly invested in continuing more research and engagement with your audience. When you inspire with your writing, you will pull more people to your publications and as a result increase your returning readers.

Conclusion

I believe the above three tips are easy and guaranteed ways to get readers to return to your articles and to make money on Medium without having to write every day. Remember to write about topics that are in high demand, to tailor your writing to guide and advise others, and to always provide updates about your latest findings and thoughts. When people subscribe to you, they genuinely value your opinion, so do not be afraid to interact with your readers and learn more about what will help them more. By following the above tips, it is likely you will have articles that continuously earn money even on days you do not publish new articles.
