    Medium promotes itself.
    SubStack promotes its authors.

    Smart to see what the most popular links are. Was that the first link listed in the email?

    Great video buddy! Now - I'm only mentioning this because this 𝘪𝘴 a writing-related piece - it's death throes, not throws.

    I really liked your video but the problem with substack is that all my newsletters are going into promotion tab in gmail.. Therefore, i get less than 10% open rate.. Any solution for this?

    Have you been able to get embedded videos to play on the reader screen vs opening a new tab and going to another site where the video is hosted?

    So informative, thank you! I'm a bit worried about how to promote this on my Wordpress website. I take it Substack doesn't have conventional sign up boxes?

    Hi there... my client has deep expertise in multiple areas ...
    Should he setup separate Substack accounts for each area, or should he consolidate all of his writings in a single account? .. thx much ...

    Thanks for sharing. Do subscribers have an option to receive or opt out of receiving an email?

      Hey there! All Substack accounts support RSS, so if a customer comes to your page, they can just save the YOURNAME.subsctack.com URL to an RSS reader and follow along there without any emails. Hope that helps!

    Only thing I don't understand is why custome domain cost $50 on substack? Lots of other platform are free. Isn't it?

    Considering to switch to Substack too. Just curious if you let your existing subscribers know that you are moving them to substack?

    Are you still using this platform? Are you still doing free subscriptions if you are now doing both free and paid how long before you started?

    They do not even have an Android app yet (only IOS), article and author recommendations are basically not existing, no matter how much information the system already has about what you like or have subscribed to. Unlike with similar platforms you cannot get access by subscribing once, instead lots of channels with quite expensive subscription rates and almost no content. Apparently you cannot subscribe without accepting newsletters and get spammed by email.
    I cannot imagine that people will stick with that platform under such conditions.

    • @BarryFranks

      Here's a counter to each one of your points: They now have Android, they have a strong recommendation system, there are tons of free newsletters and most paid subscriptions also come with a free option, you can easily browse Substack and read articles without subscribing to a single newsletter/getting anything sent to your inbox. They have millions of paid subscribers and they are apart of massive change in online media distribution. They have added podcast options and are beta testing video as new media opportunities for creators. They seem to be doing pretty well!

      @@JohannPetrak It's just not true that it's all monetized. Anyone who has spent any amount of time on the platform can find free newsletters on literally any topic.

    GOD BE WITH YOU PRAYER FOR SALVATION Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name. Amen
