Rationale

Wix is a website builder that allows users to create various types of websites, including blogs and portfolios, which aligns with the concept of an online publishing platform. While it doesn't explicitly focus on 'monetization based on member reading time' like Medium, it does offer tools for managing online stores and collecting payments, which can be a form of monetization. The platform provides a rich text editor for content creation, analytics for engagement metrics, and community features like comments and forums. It also supports user profiles, tags, email newsletters, and mobile app access. The distribution and recommendation engine is not as explicit as Medium's, but the platform's search and discovery features serve a similar purpose.
