My Case for Writing on Medium: The Social Place for Blogging

I created a blog on my site to document thoughts, accomplishments, lessons, and opinions. I enjoyed the writing and stuck with it, consuming and creating content. I discovered Medium on accident, but saw the offering and realized a couple items that my writing may not have.

Medium is a social blogging platform that allows you to create and publish one’s own content and connect with readers and writers. One of the best things about Medium is the community. Whether you’re interested in technology, politics, or personal development, there are thousands of writers on Medium who share your interests.

The impressive UI of Medium is another encouraging benefit. A platform that is easy to navigate, where you can easily customize your profile and blog to reflect your personality and style. Medium’s built-in editor gives the ability to create beautiful and engaging posts, complete with images, videos, and other multimedia content.

Perhaps the best thing about Medium is the exposure it provides. Medium has a large and growing user base, which means that your content has the potential to reach thousands of readers. And because Medium is a social platform, your content can also be shared and promoted by other users, helping to increase your visibility and reach.

With all these impressive benefits, and ease of use to establish, why not? At the very least Medium acts as a great way to write more consistently, with a direct purpose of sharing.
