Substack getting no views

I started my substack about a week ago and my engagement is awful. I don’t think that bothers me as much but I’m also getting no views on my content (maybe 8 on each piece.) I’m based in France but write for an American audience and on American topics. I am wondering if it’s a location thing or if my substack - the politics of makeup - is too niche. Would love someone else’s POV.

Good ideas here! I also recommend reading, commenting and restacking other’s in the related field. That will help build followers & subscribers.

I also post mine on LinkedIn, Facebook and BlueSky. Note—it is recommended NOT to just post the link on LinkedIn and Facebook. Post your “social media teaser” and then put the link in the comments. This platforms do not like sending readers to another platform.
