About Medium
from our crawl and measurement
Medium describes itself simply: "Author of ‘The AI Ladder’, ‘The End of Tech Companies’ & ‘Big Data Revolution’ amzn.to/2uVu84R." Its AI visibility score is 6.8 out of 10: the engines can find it, but they do not have much to hold on to.
Under the hood there is structured data on the page (Person) and a readable heading structure, but the score is capped by what is missing: an llms.txt file, a sitemap.
