MEDIUM PROFILE TUTORIAL
How to Create an Attractive Medium Profile That Readers Will Believe
Keep it simple
If you are on Medium to write and make some money, then creating a great profile is key. It’s like picking up a book at the bookstore to check out the author’s bio page. What are some things you look for?
- Headshot
- Name or Pen Name
- The section on who the author is
The same is true for Medium. If you want to gain fans, not followers, a profile is important.
After you log in, you will notice the menu bar on the left-hand side of your screen. The icons (in order) are house (home page), bell (notifications), stacked bookmark (lists), a page with lines (your stories), graph (stats), pencil on top of a box (write), and waaaay at the bottom is a circle with your profile picture.
That is your profile area. Click on your picture and this box will pop up:
Click on Settings. It will take you to your Profile Settings page.
