The Problem with Medium
Medium is great for writing. Not for owning your audience.
If you just want to publish, Medium works. If you want to own your domain, your readers, and your leads, there's a better option.
Paywalls block your readers
Medium shows paywalls to your readers, pushing them to become Medium subscribers. The audience you earn gets converted into Medium's customers, not yours.
Competitor content under your posts
Medium displays 'Related Articles' from competitors right below your content. Readers you worked to attract get pulled toward other writers and brands.
Every backlink builds Medium's authority
Every backlink, every share, every reader you earn builds Medium's domain authority instead of your own. Quilzy hosts your blog on your domain so the SEO value is yours.
