There’s a great chance to boost your Medium earnings that arrives in your inbox each morning.

Sure, you can read the stories about Medium earnings being down for many writers. And yes, those reports seem to be true.

The question, then, is how can you maximize your Medium experience?

I’ve found the Daily Digest a fabulous way to do just that.

The Digest is a collection of stories emailed to you based on your Medium reading habits.

You turn it on in the “notifications” tab of your profile settings. You can also set it for “weekly,” or you can turn it off. I have mine set for daily and it gives me that boost I need.

It will include stories from writers you follow or read a lot and also some suggestions for new writers/new content.

At first, I just ignored this email. I’d logon to Medium and just read stuff I liked.

But as I followed more people and got further into the Medium world, a strange thing happened.

The Daily Digest started looking a lot like the stories I really wanted to read.
