Substack has resources to help your newsletter be more successful.
The guidance you’ll find is not a guarantee that you’ll get, say, a thousand subscribers. But it should help. (Each new subscriber can make your day brighter. 🌞)
But let’s say you’re looking for ideas beyond Substack’s resources. 🤔
* You might apply for Substack Go (application due January 21, 2022).
* You might ask questions in Substack’s office hours (currently each Thursday).
* You might contact fellow newsletter/blog publishers whose work you admire and who might have relevant advice.
* You might post a discussion and ask your audience for advice.
* And you might take a look at these three Substacks. Their posts don’t typically focus on Substack – but they are often relevant to issues faced by Substack publishers.

As with last week’s discussion, feel free to leave your advice in the comments!
As explained in the text and comments of How I got my Substack to be Google searchable, if you haven’t already registered your newsletter in Google Search Console, you might still be able to (or contact Substack Support if you can’t).
The Blogging Guide looks extensive. I’m definitely giving that one a read. Thank you!
Super helpful - thank you!
