People may be able to find success with proofreading.

Thousands of people are writing on Medium with the hope of earning some real money with the platform. There are people who are very successful who earn thousands of dollars a month from Medium and other such outlets, but most people are still hoping without receiving much in the way of earnings.

If the Medium gig is not paying off, there may be other opportunities out there for bringing in additional income.

One of the ways could be proofreading since most Medium writers are likely quite good at writing and editing.

Proofreading involves checking and correcting written content. A person would need to be proficient in catching grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors. It would require attention to detail. People who did well in English or Journalism classes in school could be good proofreaders. They should like reading.

There is a possibility for proofreaders to earn $15 to $40 per hour, which is much more than most Medium writers are earning.
