Introducing Media.com

Media.com is an online community for users who value trusted content.

Anyone who wants to create, share and engage with content that is free of interference from fake profiles and bots.

Our business model is different from social networks because we do not rely on advertising. We grant users free access to be part of our community and offer upgrade options for users who see value in our premium features.

All users in our community are verified prior to being granted a profile. This encourages accountability for content posted on our network.

Tip: You can check a user’s verified name by hovering over their profile badge. Their verified name is the name on the identity document they provided to us to become verified.
