How to Make More Money on Vocal Media

I definitely have a love/hate relationship with Vocal Media but you can still make money on there if you really want to.

Vocal Media is similar to Medium but instead of paying $5 a month to join the Medium Partner Program, it’s free. However, if you’d like to earn $6.00 per thousand views, you must sign up for Vocal Plus which is $9.99 a month.

Free members earn $3.80 per thousand views, but Vocal also offer bonuses once in a while.

Earn $65 for your first 50 Articles

Write five articles, and receive a $5 bonus. Ten articles gets you $10, and 50 articles, you’ll receive a $50 bonus. Vocal also pay bonuses for featured articles and commenting. When you comment on five articles, you’ll receive a $5 or $10 bonus.

So, one way to earn more on Vocal Media is to write more, and comment more.

Write About Vocal Media

Vocal love it when you write about the platform, so write articles that highlight how to make more money on Vocal, things you love about the platform, and how to use Vocal Media. These articles will get featured, and you’ll earn more money.

Another way to earn more by writing about Vocal is to publish your Vocal-related articles on other platforms. Vocal has a hidden affiliate program, and when people sign up for a paid membership, you earn commission. I believe it’s $20 for every sign up.

Write Google News Content

I use this powerful Google News method to find profitable content ideas, and it’s a wonderful way to build searchable high-quality content. All you do, is search Google News for content that resonates with your audience, then create content based on the articles you find.

Write about Popular Brands

This is one of the best ways to make money on Vocal Media. For this, you list several well-known brands and platforms such as Canva, Medium, YouTube, Pinterest, Apple, and more. Then, create a list of ten article titles for each brand. Once you’re done, write and publish, back to back. It’s much easier to write about popular brands because people are already searching for these on Google and other search engines.

Shock people with your content

Create shock-value content. This type of content is popular on Vocal, so either search for shocking stories online, or write personal stories.

Publish often

I know, you don’t want to hear this, but if you want to be successful on Vocal or any other platform, you must publish consistently. I publish at least three times a week on Vocal, but sometimes I do 30-day Vocal publishing challenges where I publish daily for 30 days. This is a fun way to stay consistent, and when you announce your challenge, you’ll drive more challenge to your content.

Making more money on Vocal Media requires a combination of strategies. By writing more and commenting regularly, you can take advantage of the bonuses Vocal offers. Writing about Vocal Media itself can also boost your earnings, especially when featured or shared on other platforms through Vocal’s affiliate program, this is where you earn $20 per paid sign up referral. This can add up fast if you already have a large audience on other platforms such as YouTube or Instagram.

Leveraging Google News to create relevant content and focusing on popular brands can attract a larger audience. Finally, publishing consistently, whether it’s a few times a week or through a 30-day challenge, will keep your content fresh and engaging. With dedication and these methods, you can maximize your income on Vocal Media.
