I’m wondering if it’s financially worth it to cover the $5/mo membership.

I post Medium articles fairly regularly, and each email update shows I get ~500 reads total.

Is that enough to cover the $5/mo? Would it be a wise financial risk?

Are people willing to share their readership and total MMR?

Edit: shouldn’t have shared my financial situation; was interested in data/advice only.

      Oh, no, I don’t have to pay to submit articles. I’ve already published dozens of articles. It’s just that in order to participate in profit sharing, you need to become a member: $5/mo or $50/yr.

        Haha it looks like a Ponzi scheme… Edit: Sorry it was just a silly joke. Hope you’re going to find a better solution than Medium nasty pricing! Taking money from readers and authors…
