Earnings Per 1000 Views On the NEW Medium 2023
A quick calculation after 2 months with the updated earning metrics
In August, they ditched the old earnings algorithm for a new, more nuanced one that calculates our dollars on multiple factors instead of just member reading time, as had been the case before.
This has resulted in feedback from “all went to hell” to “it’s been a real earnings boost lately”.
Let’s see how it affects earnings in my case.
First things first
I’m going to calculate and find an average over my latest stories by using 1000 views as the measure.
1 view is hardly enough, and even 100 views fluctuate quite a lot. 1000 seems to be a little more stable in my experience.
Now, before we go on, reaching 1,000 views on a Medium story is an exciting milestone for any writer. I know that. It’s a huge thing, actually.
Congratulations if you’ve been there. Keep at it if you’re working on it!
It’s important to understand what those 1,000 views really mean in terms of income on Medium.
1000 views on the new Medium can mean a LOT… or nothing at all.
