“hi! i have two substack publications; one for general knowledge ( short articles about topics i research in depth) , and one about eastern european history, culture, and politics. i was wondering if anyone had any advice on how i could gain a readership without sharing to my private social media accounts?”
“Hello. I have been writing on Substack for quite some time. Lately I have seen lots of articles with a voice narration at the top that you click. A lot of these seem to be AI generated.”
“I'm still fine-tuning the parameters for the Substack subscription site in order to make it most useful and to provide a good value to my clientele. I'm waiting until after Labor Day to begin the service because I'm going to be out of town for the preceding week.”
“Looks like it’s full account distribution across the board no matter what I do. That includes restacking and commenting on others work as well. Zero movement!”
“I’m 6.5 years into running my Substack, and I’m only now starting to feel like I’ve found my stride and settled on the right mix of original reporting and bloggy commentary. There are certainly things I wish I could do better or spend more time on, but at least the editorial”
“So, I’m relatively new on Substack but my publication has been gaining some traction (I mean a lot), and I noticed that some publications have group chats. How do I create that and do I even need to create that?”
“I wanted to know if I could post my articles on Substack as well, to have all of my writing available in one place. I would put a disclaimer at the top (also published in \_\_\_\_), and obviously, I wouldn’t charge for these articles, since they are able to be viewed for free in their original publication.”
“And also interact a lot with other substacks and notes. I've gotten the highest amount of engagement on Notes where I'm recommending essays thank where I'm promoting my articles.”
“The Substack mobile app is designed primarily as a reader experience and a light feed for Notes. Trying to format, draft, or arrange layouts on mobile is an exercise in frustration. Use a desktop browser for drafting, structuring, and publishing your work.”
“Since the past few days, my overall notes impressions have suddenly dropped to around 20, and they're barely getting shown to any unconnected people. The people who see the notes are engaging, but it does nothing to improve the impressions. I haven't changed a thing about my content, so I find this sudden unexplained drop really strange.”
“I felt like this would be a resistive step to people whom I share my substack post links and are not on substack to simply subscribe to my mailing list.”
