Recently after watching Shelby Church's video
I got introduced to Medium. After watching these videos,
I was completely sold to start writing on Medium
as it felt like the perfect fit.
Actually, I was using medium since last year but never
knew the writing side of it.
The best part of Medium is its interface.  Structured
and easy to write, edit, and publish your work.
She also posted multiple videos on her earnings,
where her 1 article earned more than 11,000 dollars.
Nowadays, every social media platform is typically
saturated and it is too hard to put your work out there
in front of people but when we see Medium, on the other hand
It is such a unique and positive space.
Hello guys
my name is Abhidev, and in this video we will see
see how you can get started with Medium and how you can earn through it.
Please make sure to watch it till the end and don't forget to
subscribe to my channel. Because in upcoming videos
I'm going to talk a lot about Medium
So ya, let's get started with it.
The process of earning is not that complicated.
You don't want a huge following on Medium to get started.
You can simply create your account on Medium
using any of these options. And to
make yourself eligible to earn you have to enroll for Medium's Partner Program.
To enroll in Medium's Partner Program you need to have
a stripe account, which is a similar service to PayPal
but it's currently in the beta phase in India and Brazil
But don't worry you can still earn in India and I will
make a separate video on it.

Let's talk about how you can get started with Medium and
how you can publish your first article. There are two
ways through which you can write on Medium. You can either import your
story or you can write a fresh story using write
your story. Import your story is a feature that can
be used if you have already written an article
and you also have to publish it on Medium. I personally don't use Import your story feature because I don't write
anywhere else. But if you have already written vlog or article
somewhere else you can use it. And if you want to write a
new story, you can select write your story.
When you open Write your story you can see Title and
Tell your story, which is already written. Medium is just telling
you this is the place where you write your TItle
and below you have to write your Story. Two additional features are
also there along with the title, which are called Subheading(subtitle) and Kicker.
Which are usually hidden. So to write your subheading
you just have to write it below to your Title
and then select the whole text and using the mouse press on right-click.
After pressing on the right-click these options will appear.
you have to select this small "T" icon. And
it will appear in the form of subheading. And if you want to
add Kicker, then click here at the start of your title
and press enter. You will see this gap above
the title and this is the place to enter your kicker.
After writing it, select the whole text, and then
using mouse right-click.
After the right-click these options will appear.
You have to select the small "T" icon. And here is your kicker.
This feature makes your starting of the article.
There are more features that you can use to make your article
more attractive. But we will talk about them
in upcoming videos. But now you can start writing your article here.
While writing your article don't focus on spelling mistakes
and grammar too much. Just write your thing
Editing should be done in the last stage before publishing it.

After writing your article you have to
go to these three dots. You can see here are
various options. You can select add to the publication
if any publication has added you as a writer
I highly suggest write 2 or 3 articles in the starting
before approaching any publication.
You can also see this change tags option here in the mid area
which helps you to put your article in the different categories.
Medium generally allows to 5 tags which you
can use to increase your impressions. 
For your first article, you will
only need these two options. So after adding those tags
go to the publish button and check for this option if you
haven't selected it. And then click publish.
Now you are done. Your first article is published.

Before writing your article, I highly suggest you download
Grammarly. You can either download the chrome extension
or various plugins which are available of Grammarly.
It will help you to correct your typos or any other
grammatical mistakes which you committed while writing your article.
And don't forget to enroll for Medium Partner Program,
because without it you will not be able to earn any money.
I know Stripe is not available in India. But I've got
an option. So as soon as I'll create a video about it, I'll link
it in the description. If you still have any problem
you can also see my blog describing the same things with
the required photos. I will provide its link in the description.
So thank you guys for watching. AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT IT
YOU CAN PUT IT IN THE COMMENT BOX BELOW.
So, Bye- Bye guys.
See you in the next video.
