9 months on Medium. Time flies. I still feel like a newbie most of the time. And compared to some of the most prolific and successful writers on this platform, I still am.

Let’s find out how much Medium has paid me in 9 months for (almost) 125,000 views to date.

As you can see from the screenshot above, 125K is actually the number including comments. Without those response stats, I’m at a little over 118K views. As you know, comment views (and reading time) don’t pay. Would be nice if they did. But for now, they’re not.

So over the last 9 months, with 118K views, my earnings come in at $3652.
