Choosing where to publish your writing is tricky — each option promises visibility, income, and a loyal audience. But with a clear understanding of your options, it’s easier to match your goals to the platform that will serve your writing best.
Let’s have a look at some options.
Every freelance writer needs a visible, accessible, and professional online presence. Whether you’re pitching to clients, publishing personal essays, or trying to build a loyal readership, having a consistent place to showcase your work is essential. But which platform? Each offers its own advantages and limitations, so deciding where to publish is not obvious.
Should you build your own blog from scratch? Join the thriving community on Medium? Or start a newsletter on Substack?
The answer depends on your goals, your writing habits, and how much control or income you’re looking for. Each platform caters to different needs.
