Most of the videos I've seen where people say how well they've done on Medium have been authors of technology focused articles. People who write about AI or niche things (I mean really niche) that seem to appeal to a small but very enthusiastic community. So I guess we all need to look for a hobby that has a loyal following and write for them.. maybe 🤔🤷 an old granny's rambles down memory lane might not fit the bill 😂

That’s about $27 per hour [127 articles x 4 hrs per article] divided into $14K

I could do with you talking me through this. I tried substack and so far in about a year I have 4 followers and 1 of them is me 😂. I have had a look at Medium but don't understand it. I post short stories or story openings normally.

Do you have a theory about why Medium worked for you and not Substack? Also, you could post same articles to both. (I’m on Medium.)

do you stay on one topic as an expert, or do you write about different things everytime?

I've had horrible traction on substack. about 10 years ago I was active on medium but I was fairly convinced the platform was nearly dead. maybe i need to find my old account!

That’s brilliant! Did you submit to publications or just write on your own page (if that makes sense) ?

I just started on substack but I’m wondering if I should invest my efforts into medium instead - does it work well for non-fiction? Also CONGRATULATIONS

Thank you. This is great information. I've been publishing my comedies on KDP for years and it's getting harder to get a decent return on all my effort. Your content looks really interesting and now I'm a follower 🙂

Is there a cut off point for the articles, or can they earn money indefinitely?
