The idea of moving from a traditional hosting platform (that was getting increasingly expensive) to one where I had to build a subscription base from scratch keeps me awake at night. I left behind a readership of 1.5 million visits a year to, well, 32 paid subscriptions and 89 free subscriptions. What I appreciate, though, is that Substack is always here, encouraging growth and good writing, telling me how to increase readership and subscriptions, gently prodding toward a successful future.
