Rationale
BuzzSumo is a content marketing and PR analytics platform, not an online publishing platform. It focuses on content discovery, research, influencer identification, and monitoring, which are tools for content creators and marketers, but it does not provide a rich text editor for publishing, nor does it have a direct monetization model for writers based on reader engagement. It also lacks community feedback tools for published content and a recommendation engine for readers.
