A question:
On Medium after writing a post, you are invited to share it on SM just as it is. Is this a good thing or will the search engines object to it?

This article is eight years old; things may have changed by then. For example, Goolge+ is no longer there...

However I find this article it may be of use to you

You can always repurpose content and change it to suit the platform or your objectives and what you hope it achieves.

For repurposing, you may want to check Jay's live webinars in the classes tab or the magnifying glass top menu.

This is great! I'll reorganise.

Good information. I'll work on it. Thanks.
