Launched 3 weeks ago, at 37 subscribers, here is what worked for me
Newsletter: https://mythicalai.substack.com/ - a weekly 'what is happening and how you can use it' about AI
Biggest source of traffic and subscriptions have been
- My own efforts (sending it to people) Facebook
- Twitter (replying to AI posts with more value and mentioning the newsletter)
- Indiehackers
Congratulations! Growing a newsletter can be really hard (I run one as well).
I can definitely agree that Twitter is a great source of readers and curious people. If you have any particularly hacker-friendly articles, I'd also recommend posting to HackerNews -- it can be a great place for people who are really interested in early projects/tech.
Along with that, Reddit is also a great place to post your stuff, though the community is often really negative for no reason.
Yeah Reddit is a two edge blade. Can be super helpful, but they can be super negative.
Congrats Josh! Onwards and upwards!
Thanks! Up and to the right, am I right? :)
