Thanks!

However, I would like to add one more way to make money on Medium, that is: promoting your own stuff, I often find my readers struggling with some common…

Thanks for this article. I just started writing/blogging in the last week, and am getting the ins and outs of how medium works. I had also never heard of mix.com, so thanks for pointing it out.
