Analytics for your Substack newsletter?

Hello there!

My name is Vaibhav and I write a newsletter called Psych which is about psychological biases and insights (since 2020).

One of the problem with writing on Substack is that their analytics do not really help to understand the performance of your newsletter and the insights needed to grow.

So, I took to scratching my own itch to see if the past newsletter's data could help with something. Interestingly, I was able to derive some metrics like -

  • Email Engagement over time (Opens, Clicks, Delivers)
  • Days and Time with most opens / clicks
  • Month wise breakdown - email with most opens, most clicks, delivers

If you also write on Substack, would you be interested in finding such metrics for your newsletter?

Thanks!

P.S. Shared my detailed insights here - https://tally.so/r/n0Vp9y

    The form is not working.

    I ran multiple newsletters and had to build my custom solution just to collect and analyze the data I needed. @Vaibhav

      Hey @mrhackalotz,

      I built the solution in the very beginning of this year (post date is February 16th) and did get some response too. However, this was turned into a service with the feedback.

      Do share your custom solution link. I would love to check it out too :)
