Medium vs Personal Blog vs Substack
Which one is right for you?
With popular platforms available like Medium, your own personal blog, or Substack, it can be challenging to decide where to share your articles.
Let’s look at each one of them and see which is best for you:
1. Medium
Medium is like a big online community of writers from different genres. Anyone can write and publish articles on Medium. When you publish, your articles can be seen instantly by a large audience from all over the world.
Medium also has its own built-in readership, so your articles might reach more people compared to starting from scratch.
Pros:
1) Large built-in audience.
2) Easy to use and set up.
3) You can make money through the Medium Partner Program if your articles are popular.
Cons:
1) Medium can change its rules or even shut down.
2) Limited customization options. Your articles may not look unique to people.
3) Earnings can vary, and you might not make a lot of money unless your articles are widely read.
