The Friend of Medium program has been available for about a week. I upgraded my membership on November 28th to help support other writers. I also noticed a big increase in views/reads after making them upgrade to my account.

Initially, I wrote an article highlighting these changes. Just to give a quick recap, I averaged around $1.65 for the first 28 days of November. However, my earnings jumped to $4.56 and $10.10 during the first two days of making the switch to being a Friend of Medium.

Of course, two days is an extremely small sample size for anything. I’ve continued to track my daily earnings to show people my experience and help them decide if they should consider making an upgrade or if it’s better to continue to wait.

Here are my daily earnings for each of the past seven days.

11/29/23 — $4.56

11/30/23 — $10.10

12/01/23– $4.13

12/02/23 — $24.07

12/03/23 — $10.51

12/04/23 — $3.34

12/05/23 — $9.14
