When you first start out on your Medium writing journey, you may wonder about the benefit of writing stories and submitting them to publications.

New members to this online writing platform often raise the question of:

“What are the best Medium Publications to write for?”

In in 2024, that question is just as popular, and just as relevant.

The most practical answer to this question comes with a bit of caution.

Notice in the following sections, as they bring out why new writers should…

Recognize the potential value of submitting to smaller publications

If you’re just starting out on Medium, or even if you’ve been writing for this freelance platform for some time; you can do you and your stories a favor, by recognizing the potential value that can come from submitting to smaller pubs.

Yes — it could possibly be to a new writer’s advantage, to create content that they choose to submit to the larger and more popular Medium publications.

👉 But make no mistake — even small Medium publications that are lesser known in the community, can be a way to help your stories get noticed.

This point is brought out in the following story, written by yours truly, as it relates to the way writers should view small Medium publications.

Is it okay to shoot for a shot with the big guys, and submit your stories to popular Medium publications?

Sure. Go for it, if there is a publication that you feel your story(s) will be a good fit for.

But remember…

Smaller publications are more likely to accept stories from new writers

After being a prolific writer on Medium for more than two solid years, I can honestly say that I value the creative editors and all the publications they design and maintain on this website.

That includes both the large and the small publications that are available to submit to.

But one thing to keep in mind, when thinking about where you want your stories to find a home, is that smaller publications are usually more likely to accept submissions from new or less experienced writers, than the big publications.

Countless small and even new publications, will often welcome new writers and members with open arms.

Here are a few for example:

These publications represent a drop in the bucket, when it comes to all the awesome publications you can find to submit stories to in 2024.

Whether you go for the small or the larger, more popular Medium publications, you will have no problem locating the best publications on Medium to submit and write for.

See which ones might make a good fit…

Final Thoughts

As a publication owner of multiple different Justiss Goode publications on Medium, I fully understand what a challenging, yet fulfilling role the editors play in this community of content creators.

Make a point of not taking the services they provide for granted.

At some point, you may even decide to create your own publication(s) here on Medium’s popular online writing platform.

If you do, you’ll be starting out as a new and small publication that you will want writers to appreciate.

So make sure you do the same, by supporting the smaller, lesser known Medium publications.

Thanks for reading…
