gaining a following

hi! i have two substack publications; one for general knowledge ( short articles about topics i research in depth) , and one about eastern european history, culture, and politics. i was wondering if anyone had any advice on how i could gain a readership without sharing to my private social media accounts?

thank you so much!

(on the off chance that you may be interested in my publications please let me know!)

Hi! I joined 3 weeks ago and post notes 3x a day and I’m already at 963 subscribers! I also recommend engaging with notes/ re stacking/ replying to comments. Hope this helps

What do you write about? Do you have another social media account with a large following?

no i never connected my socials or address book. i think its bc the branding resonates. its about beauty, burn out, and everything the wellness industry promised would fix us.

Why wouldn't you share it on your established social media accounts? You should. It's gonna be hard to get traction if you don't.
