Medium vs. Quora Blogs

If you are vanity publishing and just want to see your stuff on the web, it is very, VERY easy to get involved with. Of course, your writing is not likely to stand out if you don't have a clear plan. The more I use it, the more I like it. The user interface is extremely well-done. I kinda wish my WordPress-based blogs had editors that were that easy to use.

Quora Blogs is well suited to reach your ideal customer set and the interaction is lot more social than many other platforms. There are no bounds for expressing one's thoughts and ideas. A well directed communication is made and conversations are top notch. What I feel is that there should be a good enough reach for more customers.

• Content categorization and grouping.
• The option to make some money from sharing your passion and teaching.
• Moderating content manually to not promote AI-generated content and boosting very authentic and impactful posts.

• I like a lot of interesting topics, I have signed many of them.
• I also like that I can help people. I often go to the questions tab and answer them.
• Quora can help you find answers to any questions.
• I share my experience.

• The payment wall can be confusing.
• Hard to get traction if you're trying to go viral with an article.
• Sometimes content gets buried too easily.

• Deep knowledge is not on Quora Blogs. One gets the overview only.
• It is not a single specialized source. If tech, one would follow Stack Overflow instead of Quora Blogs.
• Old posts are still circulated currently, which should be modified.

By comparison, most online editors are clunky. The Medium editor is amazingly powerful and still easy to use.

Medium is supported across android, iOS and the web. While it may not have all the languages supported, English is certainly an option and with a pricing model that ranges from free to $5 for a subscription, you can't go wrong whether you're a small or large business. Everything is hosted in the cloud so it is very accessible

Quora has an amazing community that gives you the support you need if you are actively contributing in a helpful way. Content is short and concise and gets right to the matter at hand. My team has found it useful in showing up as an expert in our industry by answering the questions that are being asked out there.

Medium is dirt easy to use. The hard part is figuring out if it is worth the effort to include it as part of our content-marketing strategy.

There are a handful of other blogging platforms available. The biggest difference between Medium and others is how streamlined it is. It's straight to the point and is excellent at showing related content, be it your own or another users. There's no new design to navigate between posts, everything is where you expect it to be letting you focus on the post.

In comparison to Blogger, Quora Blogs has its perks. However, I think for any serious blogging I would find myself going elsewhere just for the added features that seem to be missing from Quora such as widgets and advanced customization

• Good way to raise awareness of our content with @mentioned influencers
• Good way to link back to your original content
• Aside from publishing your own content Medium is a great news site in its own right. If you're looking for relevant industry news or other content, check in daily to see what's going on with others in your industry.

• Previously, I never read blogs and I would just try to search here or there on google/the internet for things I was interested in, but now [with Quora] I can find everything in one place.
• For example, I once searched about the computer languages and their usages and one blog post really sorted out my confusion as it was completely detailed.
