Starting a newsletter - pls provide feedback
Hi All,
I am starting a newsletter titled - "A bit of history" which talks about historical events, historical figures, places of historical importance and among other things related to history. This is my first time venturing into this area.
I have put up a landing page at -
https://historybits.substack.com/
I am planning to have this newsletter bi-weekly and will be free initially. Will you be interested ? Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks
Hi Rajesh! Welcome to the newsletter world :)
I find the title a bit generic (I actually like more the one you used in your url - History Bits). I'd also love to see some of your writing in the landing page before I subscribe!
Thank you for the feedback Sugarenia. I have updated the title to History Bits and fair point on subscribing. I am working on the post, will update you and this thread once I publish.
Go go go! 👏

This is a great interesting idea. I'm just starting a similar project, but in philosophy, not history. So I've signed up to see what you are up to.
It would be great to have bit more info on the landing page (history is a big topic): more of a sense of the approach you are taking, and more of a sense of your own voice as a writer. But I'm looking forward to receiving the first newsletter.
Thank you for the signup and the feedback Will, I see what you are saying and I will do some homework on the landing page text.
Your website looks great and you have another subscriber in me.
Great! And thanks for the vote of confidence. It's nice to see somebody else working on a similar kind of project.

Great! I like the length (bite-sized chunks!) and the friendly tone.
Thanks Will !!
