Very true points. Don’t forget that social media will add some subscribers.
When I set up my Substack and had written regularly for a while I sent a direct message to my LinkedIn connections. It took time has I had 2000 or so. However, it resulted in 54 subscribers.
Twitter/X still brings in a few. I have my own domain and I think that fools Mr Musk’s ban.
Facebook has brought in some, but Instagram is not worth the effort. I also get some from my YouTube channel.
The relatively new referral system on Substack could be a game changer. Just think that if on average each subscriber brought in one new subscriber per year? That would have an incredible effect, especially if we already have a good number of subscribers.
I think with the right tactics, referrals from subscribers can do even better. If we all bring new readers to Substack it can help many more writers as our subscribers discover others in the ecosystem.
I'm not sure if there's a limit to how many times a day you can post on notes. Most people make 1 or 2 posts each day and interact with the post of others through liking and commenting.
You can share anything you like in your notes so long as it abides by Substack's guidelines.
I need to utilize Notes more, I keep forgetting about it. Also, I like the idea of guest writing on other newsletters.

Great points! That's interesting to hear about your own domain getting around Twitter's problems with Substack. I'll have to look into that!
That’s interesting! I will definitely keep in mind about Twitter!
Thanks
You're welcome!
Good tips- thanks so much. ✨
Probably some of the most actionable tips anyone can apply.
I'd also like to add try to hook people with the visuals.
Create something that they don't see anywhere.
It could be your content, the way you write, the way you interact, anything.
Just show who you truly are.
Thanks for this!
Thank you! Been looking at some advices on how to grow and this is by far the best one!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
As someone new to Substack, I appreciate this post. I don’t use notes nearly as much as I should.
Glad it was helpful to you!
I see these types of posts a lot and skip over most of them--but this one is really good. Thank you, good sir!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
I need to know one thing
In how much intensity should I be posting notes in regular basis.
How many notes a day?
And can I share anything abouty content, life in my notes or not?
Is anybody here who can help me with this ?

Really appreciate your suggestion
I clicked in to learn how to grow on Substack and it was serendipity to find out that you too write Christian content! 🔥💛
Thank you for your honest take on growing on this platform. Sounds like consistency is key. Would you recommend to publish two articles per week?
I would publish however many times you can remain consistent each week - if that's once, great! If it's more, that's great too.
Thank you for the encouragement! I always think I am not doing enough publishing but now I feel better.
Excellent wisdom. Thanks for sharing this. For a new stacker, its very helpful advice.
Great tips! I will definitely try it out, I also think that one important thing is consistent.
I have one question though: how often is necessary to post on notes?
I see some people posting/commenting multiple times a day. I tend to post a few times a week. But it's really up to you.
Thank you 😊
Thank you for your good tips. Congratulations on your accomplishments on Substack!
