I created my Medium account back in November 2021.

Primarily, I created this account as one of my friends suggested so that I can monetize my writing.

He knew that I was juggling things on the Blogger platform at that time.

So he suggested me a better platform to put my efforts in the right direction.

All thanks to him.

First Challenge

When I signed up and started exploring how things actually work here on Medium, I was excited to make a lot of money here.

There comes the first challenge, the 100 Followers Challenge.

To be eligible for joining the Medium Partner Program, along with other requirements, I needed to have 100 followers too.

So, things started rolling out; I gained 100 followers in, I think one month.

Second Challenge

Here comes another challenge that I haven’t expected.

I watched a video of Zulie Rane, and she described that Medium has now (that time back in 2021) partnered with Stripe for payouts.
