"14ab">This is when in February of 2022 I took the plunge and got a membership because only reading 2–3 articles each month was frustrating. You can not learn much from other writers when you can’t read stories.Therefore, I set my first goal of getting 100 views in a day. Until then my top was only 85 on April 7th. To my astonishment, the very next day my goal was achieved and reached 141 views on April 8th. Again not much but for me, it is motivation to be better!<figure id="4d4f"><img src="https://cdn-images-1.readmedium.com/v2/resize:fit:800/1*Bykqtt465aw1tBvvZeHMWQ.png"><figcaption>Authors View count</figcaption></figure><figure id="cc36"><img src="https://cdn-images-1.readmedium.com/v2/resize:fit:800/1*0d_B95ZA4t8onDB_F4noWQ.png"><figcaption>Authors view count</figcaption></figure>My second goal is to get $50 in earnings for 1 month and after hitting 200 articles written and almost 3000 followers under my belt, this month I will hit that goal.

I Finally Became a Medium Member and Here’s My Earnings Report

How my earnings went from 6 cents to $60.00 in 9 months

Let me start off by saying that I’m aware that earnings reports are not popular with all readers. Now that’s out of the way, I decided to write this not to brag (and you can see why), but to share with other interested readers to learn what works and what doesn’t.

I have been on Medium for 15 weeks now and I am still learning all there is by reading tons of stories. There is nothing better than gaining information from fellow writers who are having success and I hope to be there some day as well.

My first goals on Medium

I really did not get serious about writing when I first started out. It was only because after researching ways to make money online, that I decided to become a writer on this platform. After writing less than 10 stories in October of 2021, I only raked in $0.57. Nothing to brag about but it gave me motivation.

This is when in February of 2022 I took the plunge and got a membership because only reading 2–3 articles each month was frustrating. You can not learn much from other writers when you can’t read stories.

Therefore, I set my first goal of getting 100 views in a day. Until then my top was only 85 on April 7th. To my astonishment, the very next day my goal was achieved and reached 141 views on April 8th. Again not much but for me, it is motivation to be better!

My second goal is to get $50 in earnings for 1 month and after hitting 200 articles written and almost 3000 followers under my belt, this month I will hit that goal. I am at $59.91 so far with 3 days to go. Next, I will shoot for a $100 month, and then who knows.

Like I said, it is nothing to brag about but it is how I plan to be successful someday with writing an article per day and providing interesting content I hope to be there soon.

Things I learned so far

Some things that I have learned in the year of writing are:

Read lots of stories for learning and inspiration

Comment and support other writers because they are working hard too
