Thanks for sharing your results from this past year. I am just starting out and appreciate all the tips and advice I can get. The hero post is one suggestion I have not seen yet, so I will definitely be including this one.

Thank you for this really complete analysis and sharing your opinion. It’s always interesting to read a different point of view. Plus a couple of things I thought I knew but didn’t quite really. Thanks also for all the great sources and other creators of the platform. I saved your article to re-read and see what I can di better in the following months.

From my very little experience here, I discovered the power of Notes. One note can drive new subs but I don’t know what kind of notes are best. Often those talking about Substack but they don’t necessarily need to be tips.

I am still experiencing and testing (does that even ever stop ?). These are thoughts in progress 😉

This is jam packed full of good info about what moves the needle on Substack growth for those of us just starting out. Personal takeaway: I need to do a hero post. Thanks, for including my link on connecting your Substack to Google Search Console!
