- xtlyths 5y agoI've heard people reference this platform before, but I have no idea what it is. I just looked at the substack.com, and I feel like I still don't understand it. Is it a blogging platform mixed with a newsletter tool? Either I missed it entirely, or the landing page assumes I know what it is before I get there. Even the about page is buried in "link soup" at the bottom of the page and just leads to hand waving and eventually a short story about something in 1833. I don't know what needs to be built, but I do know that I don't know what this is.
- netizen-936824 5y agoFrom the first paragraph on the linked jobs page: >We make it simple for writers to publish to an email list that they own, get discovered on the web, and charge for subscriptions. Sounds to me like a blogging and newsletter platform with subscription fees paid to writers
- samglover97 5y agoI get the impression that the SEO on substack needs working on - sometimes when I google someone (e.g. 'Scott Alexander' or 'Matt Yglesias') their old pages with their old writing will come up before their substack page.
- neural_thing 5y agoYeah we for sure need to improve in that department
