Summary

The article critiques the credibility of claims that Medium is a lucrative platform for writers, questioning the authenticity of articles that promise high payouts without evidence.

Abstract

The author has observed a trend over the past six months where writers claim that Medium and other platforms pay substantial amounts, such as 100 for 750 words or 1000 for 1200 words, which they believe misleads new writers. These enticing articles often lack proof, such as dashboard screenshots or payment receipts, and the author urges writers to share verifiable evidence of their earnings. The piece emphasizes the importance of transparency and honesty in writing, suggesting that the core ethics of Medium are based on writers earning money through genuine writing experiences. The author concludes by cautioning against misleading readers and advises writers to only promote platforms they have personally succeeded with, as false claims can damage credibility.

Is Medium a Money Making Platform?

I have been noticing for the last 6 months; a few writers write articles about some websites and magazines that will pay you $100 for 750 words, $1000 for 1200 words for every piece, and many more.

Such articles easily attract newbie writers like us and waste their time hoping they will be getting $100 for a single piece. But the reality is far -far away. So if you are genuine about such a platform, Please show your dashboard or share the link if you have already published your article. If not published yet, you can also attach your rejected draft screenshots.

Yes, I agree some websites might be paying, but their processes are too long. Also, as a newbie writers, their time will go wasted.

As a writer, your job is the write your practical experience. Not your myth; if you didn’t write yourself, how will you recommend your loyal reader.

Medium core ethics are writers will earn money from their writing

Various writers continuously write about these websites that pay $500 per piece; please first earn for yourself. Then it would be best if you suggested to us. I usually get 4 to 5 articles on the same subject every week, but these writers never attached their payment screenshots.

Conclusion: Please do not make innocent readers fool. You lose your credibility in the long run. Suppose you do not have been through the process. Please do not promote and write such articles, I have been reading these articles for the last 6 months, and all articles are similar to each one, but no one can attach their payment screenshot. Share your views in the comment section. Thanks for reading.
