I'm curious about this too. And as a non-developer myself I don't see this asked/answered:
What platform do yo use for your website and for the newsletter?
Do you self-host or have a hosting service you recommend for doing this?
I have always wanted to do a similar thing, targeting a niche segment, but don't know how to start on the technical side of things. Thanks!
- afkqs 4y agoIt seems to be made with Substack [1] [1] https://substack.com/ https://substack.com/
- ryangilbert 4y agoI am hosting this on Substack (https://substack.com/ https://substack.com/) which was free to get started in minutes. I was able to buy and add my own domain later as well. If I were starting from scratch today I would choose Beehiiv (https://www.beehiiv.com/ https://www.beehiiv.com/ ) over Substack. They just seem to care more and are more or less the same but adding features much quicker. I am moving to a custom setup soon but the above options are very useful in getting something off the ground.
- lrae 4y agobeehiiv is for sure interesting, but also pretty expensive (for people starting out) with $50/month if you want to use your own domain. Just that people don't overlook that.
- ryangilbert 4y agoTrue! I did start and grow this without my own domain for awhile (not sure I would recommend doing this if you have hopes of turning it into more than a hobby - too risky trying to grab a name later).
