Medium is similar to steemit where you can get paid for your creative content. But to earn from medium you have to be a bad ass writer otherwise you will get a little reward from your work which will not be upto the mark of your expectation. If you are serious about blogging then start your own blog. Below I have point out some reason about it.
In my opinion you can use medium to divert traffic to you blog. If you really wants to be a professional write you should have a blog.
