ManyStories
Review
ManyStories allows writers to build up their profile, reach more readers, and communicate with their audience. ManyStories is part of the Penname platform. Penname is a platform of integrated websites dedicated to content distribution and discovery; a place where writers grow their audience and readers discover stories. If you have read my previous articles on Medium Tools, you may have noticed my reviews of Smedian and Signal, which are also part of the Penname platform, and created by Medium veteran and software developer, Lincoln W Daniel.

HOW TO USE MANYSTORIES
ManyStories is great because it allows writers to find new readers who are not part of the Medium platform and allows writers to find a pool of writers, with a disproportionately high number of active Medium writers, as well!
ManyStories has a sleek interface, allows for writer communication, and even has featured stories. With a smaller audience than Medium (but active and growing) it can be the perfect place to achieve recognition for a story passed over by Medium curators or a publication.
While ManyStories is for articles from any source, it is very easy to navigate for existing Medium users.
- Create an account. You can even login using your Medium credentials!
- Share your story. Simply paste the link to your story in the box below the text “Share your story.”
- Add tags to make your story searchable.
That’s it!
Another benefit of ManyStories is that the site has relatively high domain authority, and can be a great way to improve the search results associated with your author name or story titles.

It is important to note that although Smedian is primarily used by Medium writers, it will accept article/blog submissions from any website. So you can promote articles from your newsletter (if they have a URL), articles posted on your personal blog, or articles posted on any third party site, even if you are not the author (great for marketers trying to promote the work of other writers).
