Why you should invest in a Medium Membership
For only $5/month or $50/year you can have access to Medium Member benefits
Okay, I might be slightly biased now that I am part of the partner program, but I became a member because of reading other writers on medium and I am so glad I did. Although I am so happy to have a platform to write on and gain confidence, as well as a sense of supportive community, I think I would keep my membership even if I wasn’t writing.
There are hundreds if not possibly thousands (or maybe even more) of writers on here with interests, experience, training & expertise in all kinds of topics and fields. There is a wealth of information and knowledge on this platform and from what I have witnessed, so much loving support for one another as human beings and as writers.
If you are weighing the cost to benefits and wavering on whether or not to take the plunge, I say try it even for a couple months before committing to the full year membership — I truly do not think that, if you actually use the benefits of reading as many stories as your heart desires, you will regret it.
If you choose to become a member not only can you read as many stories as you want each month/year, but also:
- You get to support a platform that is offering everyday people to share their knowledge, skills, passions, stories, ideas and ideals, etc. and is pretty cool for doing so. It also allows any member access to ALL of these various people from across the globe — that is pretty sick, and by sick I mean SwWeEeEeT!
- You get to support the writers on this platform and help them to build confidence, experience, improve and hone their skills, and maybe even pay their bills — allowing us to contribute to society in a way that is uniquely our own.
- You are not only attaining a wealth of various information for yourself and supporting a platform that makes that same information possible for people everywhere, but you are also encouraging interaction, community, and ideas to be shared globally. Not only that, you can share stories with friends and family — I do it all the time! It really is a great way to connect us all! A great resource to communicate and hopefully better understand one another, help one another, and bring us closer together.
- It will possibly help broaden your horizons, eyes and heart, perspective, understanding, and so much more! It might help you figure out how to make healthier choices for you. It might help you better understand a topic, or see something in a whole new way. It may open up doors and opportunities you did not know existed or knew you were interested in. It might just show you the world…
This platform is for everyone by everyone in an atmosphere that, for me and everyone I have interacted with so far, is very positive and supportive — it is beautiful. Will there be stories you do not like or want to read… sure. Will there eventually possibly be some not so positive things, I hope not but it is always possible. The real question is, do you want to miss out on all you can gain and how much you can be a part of and learn and support because of the off chance someone might be _______?
For your own sake and development as well as the platform and writers, I hope you choose to take a shot on a medium membership, even if only temporarily. In the meantime, enjoy your 3 free a month and good luck!
PS — Just a tip — Anything underlined in people’s articles/stories are links you can click on. Bold and italic are just for emphasis. Also, you can comment and even clap up 50 times — helping a story become more viewed/popular!
