Medium Expands Global Reach
Medium, the popular online publishing platform, has announced a significant expansion of its Partner Program, now including writers from 75 new countries, with 20 African nations among them. This move broadens the platform’s reach and allows more writers around the globe to earn money for their published content.
What is Medium?
Medium serves as a hub for sharing human stories, ideas, and knowledge. It offers a platform where anyone can share insightful perspectives and life wisdom without needing to build an audience first. Through the Medium Partner Program, writers earn money based on the engagement and activity from Medium members who read, listen to, and interact with their stories.
Expanded Eligibility for African Writers
Among the newly included countries are 22 African nations such as Algeria, Angola, Nigeria, South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, and Egypt. Writers in these regions can now participate in Medium’s Partner Program, allowing them to monetize their stories as part of a broader global community. This expansion covers every country supported by Stripe, the payment platform, making it possible for writers in over 115 countries to earn through Medium.
Official Statements on Expansion
CEO Tony Stubblebine shared insights on the expansion, stating, "At Medium, we believe there are great stories everywhere." He emphasized Medium's mission to build a better internet by being a home for diverse perspectives from various countries, cultures, and demographics. Stubblebine expressed hope that these new voices would enrich the global understanding of the world through their unique stories.
Medium's Growing User Base
Medium continues to be a widely popular platform, with over 100 million people reading, connecting, and sharing content on the site every month. This expansion is set to further enhance Medium’s content diversity and deepen the engagement of its global readership.
