“What is Medium?”
“How do I use Medium?”
“Why should I use Medium (isn’t it just another platform like Facebook and Twitter)?”
These are the questions that I’m getting from the last few days from my readers and fellow writers.
And I decided to write a step-by-step guide to Medium that helps beginners to use this beautiful platform (I love this platform more than my ex).
What you’ll discover in this story:
- What is Medium?
- How to use Medium to write and publish a story (that get real views)
- How can you use it as a marketing tool?
So Let’s start…
What Is Medium?
Before you dive into using Medium, you should understand it. Every time when someone asks me what is medium?
I simply say: It’s a beautiful place to read and write. Period.
This platform is launched by Ev Williams (Twitter Co-founder) in 2012. Read what he said when he launched this platform:
Medium is a beautiful space for reading and writing — and little else. On Medium, you’re not alone. You write beside and with other people. Medium is not about who you are or whom you know, but about what you have to say.
Medium gives you an opportunity to reach a new audience with your amazing stories.
And the best part?
You don’t need to be a great writer to use Medium effectively. Just set up an account and start exploring this amazing platform. Read what fellow writers are sharing and write your story.
Put your writing in front of Medium’s 60 million monthly readers. That’s crazy number!
Let’s move to the next section where we’ll learn how to use medium rightly.
