Substack's Core Growth Loop

  1. 1

    I don't think individual posts on substack rank very well on Google.
    The growth is mainly through personal relationships. I follow someone on twitter, they start a substack, I subscribe.

    In fact, I think, it's easier to rank on google with your own SEO optimized site.

      I don't think ranking and SEO was the topic the article discussed. Personally I have not looked into individual posts ranking and SEO but Substack is good at what it does - Helping people own their audience.

        SEO is listed on the growth loop chart.

      What happened to G+ in relation to his writing? I am not sure we read the same thing but Brian was stating their observations on why Substack is growing fast.
