Also, a new feature is to "follow" not just subscribe to other Substacks, to encourage two-way communication and staying in touch without subscribing to a lot of other Substacks that clutter up email pretty fast. Good luck!
PS -- The stats I've seen from Substack are that 10% to 30% of subscribers or regular readers will be willing to pay something. Not likely to get more than 30% paying unless they are really committed to your project or feel like they are part of a vital "community."
Thanks for the tips, Jim. I hope this works out better than what I've been doing.
