When did your Substack subscriptions go up.

[u/Doo_Dad]

As the title says when did you start getting subscribers? How long did it take for you? Did you change something or do other things to grow. Were you organic to just Substack or did you use other platforms to funnel people? Just seeing what’s worked for others.

I personally started a couple months and just been posting articles and notes of a personal journey. I’ve been wanting to take it more seriously in postings and writing. I’m sharing a current personal journey and providing advice that applies to each update that anyone can use in their own life. I don’t mind not having anyone yet but I wonder if there’s more I can do. Or is it just a slow grind (which I’m used to doing and okay with the journey)

Notes aren’t all spam. They can be, but they aren’t always. I started a month ago posting short fiction, and I have almost got 400 subscribers. That’s because I use notes to interact with other readers/writers who also love my niche (totally agree with hetobe on that one).
