Since I first founded Medium Blogging Guide, collecting and organizing data on Medium Partner Program earnings has been a major focus.
However, those efforts were largely based on Medium-reported data (back when Medium revealed various writer earning info such as the highest paid article per month, the highest paid author per month, what percentage of active writers made over $100, etc.).
Since Medium has stopped reporting pretty much any sort of writer earnings, there has been little data to dissect.
This all changed when Medium added the Medium Partner Program Bonus Tiers, which, over the past few months, paid writers a bonus of up to $500.
