About
Overview
Medium is a popular online publishing platform where independent writers, journalists, and experts share articles. It offers a clean reading experience and an algorithmic feed that can help writers reach a massive audience without needing their own blog.
Pricing & Free Tier
Free Tier: Yes. You can write and publish unlimited articles for free.
Medium Membership: $5/month (for readers). Writers earn money through the Partner Program based on member reading time.
How to Use
- Sign up at medium.com.
- Click "Write" to open the editor.
- Write your article, adding high-quality images and headers.
- Click "Publish" and add tags to help readers find your story.
Important Notes
- SEO: Medium's domain authority is high, so your article might rank faster than on a new personal blog. However, you are building on rented land; you don't fully control the SEO or monetization.
- Paywall: Many articles are placed behind Medium's paywall. Non-members can only read a few articles per month.
