Create a Medium Account

Like every other platform, you need to signing-up on the platform. It is simple; click the “Get Started” button -located in the center of the page- to sign-up, or use the sign-up bottom at the top left of the page. This will lead you to another page where you can access the platform via your gmail or any other email address

After signing –up, you can use the settings button to update your username and your profile URL. Your profile URL has your username embedded in it, for example, if my username is john, and my profile URL on the Medium platform will be https://medium.com/@john.

It is very important to set-up your profile properly; add a profile picture to your page and update your bio data, which you can do with less than 160 words.

Click the "Next Page" button to see how to write, edit articles and also insert your images properly.

Hi @Parameter. Thank you for all of your useful training. I appreciate you sharing what you know. I've been writing on Medium for two years and I love it. I would caution users, however, about including affiliate links in the posts. The best way to reach a wider Medium audience is to get your article curated (selected to be distributed by Medium in certain topics). Curated articles tend to generate revenue from the partner program long after they're first posted. However, curators won't choose any articles that have affiliate links to be shared with followers of their topics. This is just to warn writers new to Medium about the rules. If you post too many articles that are not selected to be curated, it takes you out of the running for this option. To really build an audience on Medium it is important to polish your writing, follow the guidelines (ie. list the source for your images) and promote your work. Be sure to include your website link in your bio and you can have a very subtle link to a contact form for your email list, but it just has to be the link these days. It is a fun platform that will help you hone your writing skills and you can make some money from Medium itself for your content (if you join the partner program).

Hi Parameter, I was aware Medium is a free traffic source and thank you for the timely reminder. Your training is brilliant - thank you. I'm working on a family game and am wanting to test it and get feedback. I would be grateful if you could discuss with me how best to do this by Private Message. Thanks you. Cheers Jill
