I have been consistently posting on 4 subreddits in my niche on a weekly basis. this process usually consists of:
Right now the open rate hovers from 35 - 45%. One thing that I notice is that it drops on every fifth issue (called, asterisk* issue which is a slightly different issue that talks about more general issues around design). I think this may be because *issue just deviates too much from what we normally talk about, which is very font-centered. moving forward, I will put a hold on * issues and think about how to funnel the ideas in these issues into normal issues. Stay tuned!
