About Medium
from our crawl and measurement
Medium is a business whose own site puts it this way: "Tech/business writer, CEO (Novela), lecturer (Columbia), and data analyst. >500k views on Medium. I used to be with it, but then they changed what ‘it’ was." Its AI visibility score is 5.1 out of 10: the engines can find it, but they do not have much to hold on to.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (Person) and a readable heading structure. It is missing an llms.txt file and a sitemap.
