Here are some tools and tips to increase referrals: Referrals landing page: Every Partner Program writer has a personalized referral landing page where readers can become a paying member for unlimited access to their writing, plus everything else on Medium. Writers can promote their landing page on other platforms to try to drive more Referred Memberships. Email subscriptions: When a non-member subscribes to receive your stories via email (see details on email subscriptions here), they'll be asked if they want to become a member. If they convert via that prompt, that membership will count toward your referral earnings. You may promote your referral link in your posts. As a best practice, we recommend that the link is as unobtrusive as possible (stick it at the beginning or bottom of your story) and that you give the reader a sense of why they should support your work and what they can expect. If it’s not already explained in your message, you’ll also need to let your readers know that you’ll receive a portion of their membership fees.
