How to Create Your Own Sub-Domain on Medium

I just found out from Sinem Günel that you can now create your own sub-domain on Medium. I will be creating mine when I publish this post. It will be harshalmurkute.medium.com

You may expect the sub-domain creation option to be in Settings, as of right now, it is not. You will have the option to create a sub-domain upon publishing a post (not in a Publication).

After you self publish a post, immediately after you will get a pop up asking you to claim your Medium URL.
