Hello everyone,

Let me tell you why I created this!

When I first started writing on Medium, I made a mistake many of us do. I submitted my work to publications that simply didn’t fit. The audience didn’t connect. The tone was off. And it left me second-guessing my writing.

But the problem wasn’t my words. It was my audience match.

That’s when it clicked: to grow on Medium, you don’t just need to write, you need to find the right publication that aligns with your topic, your tone, and your voice.

So I sat down and started building this list.

Over time, it grew into a powerful, filterable collection of 362 Medium publications, sorted by niche and audience type, to help you write with direction and finally get your work in front of the people who are meant to read it.

What This Is

A complete, categorized spreadsheet of Medium publications categorized by niche to help you find the right home for your writing and grow intentionally on the platform.

What’s Inside the Spreadsheet

You'll receive an .xlsx file with detailed information on 362 Medium publications, including:

• ✅ Publication Name + Link
• ✅ Niche/Topic
• ✅ Follower Count
• ✅ About Section
• ✅ Publication Sections
• ✅ Editor’s Name + Profile Link
• ✅ Writer Access Notes
• ✅ Submission Guidelines Link
• ✅ Tags & Topics Covered

All publications are organized to help you filter and find what fits your writing and your goals.

Who This Is For

This resource is for you if you’re:

• A writer trying to grow on Medium
• A blogger or essayist wanting to get featured
• A freelancer exploring publication-based content repurposing
• A creator tired of writing into the void
• Someone who knows their words deserve a real audience

How to Make This List Truly Useful

This list isn’t just something to scroll through—it’s a tool to work with. Here's how to get the most value out of it:

1. Start With Your Niche

Filter the list by Topic/Niche. Find 5–10 publications that match your content—not just in theme, but in tone and audience. Don’t chase the biggest follower count. Prioritize alignment.

Some publications may have less than 1K followers, but don’t dismiss them—they're new, growing, and have highly active readers. Write for them early, and you’ll often find a more loyal, supportive audience than the big-name giants.

2. Explore, Don’t Rush

Click through the links. Read the About section. Skim a few recent articles. Pay attention to the voice, structure, and topics they cover. Ask yourself: Would my writing feel at home here?

3. Read Their Submission Guidelines Carefully

Almost every publication has specific rules. Some want draft submissions. Others require you to be added as a writer first. Use the Writer Access Notes and Guidelines Links to follow the correct process.

(Pro tip: Avoid mass-pitching. Editors notice.)

4. Follow the Editors

Each publication entry includes the Editor’s Name and a direct link to their Medium profile. Follow them. Read what they write. Learn what they value.

This gives you a better sense of the editorial voice and helps you build authentic connections before you pitch.

5. Use the Tracker Tab to Stay Organized

The second tab is your secret weapon. Use it to:

• Plan article ideas
• Match them to the right publications
• Track your submission status and dates
• Log published links for your portfolio

Treat it like your personal Medium CRM.

6. Be Patient, Be Intentional

You don’t need to submit to 50 publications. You need to submit to the right ones.

Publishing on Medium isn’t a race, it’s a rhythm. Build a habit of matching your best pieces with the best-fit publication.

Optional Pro Moves:

• Create separate tabs for your top 5 niches
• Add color-coding for response status (submitted / accepted / published)
• Bookmark editor profiles for future pitching
• Set monthly submission goals using this file

This list is an ultimate medium launchpad. The more intentionally you use it, the more you’ll grow.

Why Is This $49?

I understand that $49 may seem like a lot for a spreadsheet, so I wanted to share a little context.

This list was created with care and intention. I spent nearly two weeks of focused work, around 50 hours—researching, categorizing, verifying links, and organizing every detail to make sure it’s easy to use and genuinely helpful for writers.

From collecting editor profiles to checking submission guidelines, every entry was added manually to make this a ready-to-use resource.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the price:

• Gumroad charges 10% on every sale
• Payment processing (via Gumroad or Stripe) takes an additional 2.8% to 3%
• After all fees, I receive around $30 per sale

So while the listed price is $49, what actually reaches me is much less and it helps cover the time, effort, and value built into this resource.

If it feels too expensive for you right now, I completely understand. I also offer smaller, niche-specific lists that might be more suitable.

Thank you for understanding and for supporting independent creators. 🙏
