What Aspiring Writers Need To Do To Get A Bonus Of $50, $100 Or $500 From Medium

This is for those whose work has been rejected by top publications and has never been curated

It looks like the sunny days have finally arrived on Medium. Writers who have had a lot of complaints about the Partner Program and the way Medium deals with them can now improve their work because they may get a bonus of $50, $100, or $500.

Some days ago, I published a story in which I talked about my last month’s earnings. I published more than 70 stories in a single month and earned $1,256.48. Later on, a bonus of $500 was added to my June earnings, and last night, something wonderful happened. Medium paid me the bonus of $500 for the month of May.

Every time they say that it is a one-time bonus for high engagement, but that’s not true.

It seems to be a regular thing. Writers who work hard, publish regularly, and have unique ideas to share with their audiences may now be rewarded every month. If you are following me and reading my content regularly, you must remember the post in which I emphasized the need of publishing at least five stories a week.

If you are new to Medium or have been taking it non-seriously, this is the right time to start publishing something every day because you can get a bonus every single month. Here’s what you actually need to do.

Challenge Yourself To Show Up Daily

It is one of the most important things you need to do to get enough views and a bonus. Medium clearly said in their email that writers whose posts received high engagement were given a bonus, and the only way to get high engagement is to write regularly. I understand that you cannot spare time every single day, but writing four to five stories a week is not a big deal.

If you are working full-time or are a student, I suggest you spare four to five hours on Saturday and Sunday to write up to five posts. These posts can then be scheduled for the whole week. This idea will not only save your time but also can help you get more and more visibility. Don’t forget to promote your content on social media.

Improve Your Work And Take Feedback Seriously

I have seen aspiring writers arguing with publication editors and not admitting their mistakes. It is the worst thing you will ever do. Nobody is perfect, and we all need to learn new things every single day. Even the biggest and most successful Medium writers have had flaws in their work.

If you want to submit your work to big publications, which I don’t think is mandatory to succeed on Medium, as individual writers are also rewarded and paid well based on how many stories they publish in a month and how many Medium members are engaged with their work, then you have to improve your writing. There’s no need to depend on Grammarly to check the spelling and grammar. I have always said that you should go with manual editing and proofreading.

In case a publication editor asks you to change or remove something, you should say thanks to them because they are trying to help you improve. Arguing with them is not going to affect them. Instead, it will harm your writing career and Medium doesn’t allow negative-minded people. So we all need to be friendly and cooperative to stay on this site for long.

Another good way to improve your writing is reading the work of senior fellows and gaining as much knowledge as possible. In short, we can say that you cannot become a good writer if you aren’t a good reader.

Did you also get the bonus? If yes, then how much?
