Haha, I know right. I don't think they actually would have been open to selling at that price... I think they were just testing the waters and probably would have tried to pivot the deal into another structure.

Thought about covering this in my archaeo/historical newsletter but didn't end up doing it. Maybe it'll be of interest to some of you though — such a cool opportunity! Self-promo: If you're into this kind of thing, http

Wrote about this originally in my newsletter but didn't think a link post was appropriate so I posted the text. ancientbeat.substack.com if you're interested.

Interesting, thanks for weighing in! I think doing technical SEO on a site from the beginning makes a lot of sense. But what about writing articles to capture keywords? I'm not talking about keyword stuffing, as that's obviously d

Whoa, just saw this. Thanks so much! I can't believe how much time and thought you put into this — it's really really kind of you. You're awesome. I'll check these sites out :)

Thanks, Doug, really appreciate that feedback! Yeah, I'd prefer to add value for the paid tier, I just don't know where I would find the time. This is really helpful, though, thanks again. I'll keep noodling on it :)

Fair question. There are some other newsletters that have links... I don't know of any who summarize the content into bite-sized but reasonably comprehensive snippets. Those summaries, as well as the curation itself, are where the valu

Yeah, I agree, that makes the most sense — paid tier has paid subscriptions, free tier has sponsorships. Thanks for the feedback!

Nice - that's really helpful, thanks! I'll definitely check it out.

Really appreciate the idea, but I agree with Zircom - they're too geo-restricted. Maybe if a museum had a course or online experience that I could advertise... Something to think about. Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah, I think that's my best bet sponsorship-wise. I don't think it's big enough yet, though. I've reached out to a few youtubers and podcasters, but haven't heard back from any of them. Oddly, I also reache

I mentioned it a few issues ago but didn't get any responses about it. Maybe I wasn't explicit enough in my ask. Something to think on - thanks for the feedback!

Btw, since you're subscribed already, do you mind me asking what you think about the $8/mo? I'd really value your opinion.

Thanks for the feedback! I've thought a lot about sponsors and ads, but I don't know where I would find people who want want to sponsor a newsletter on archaeology/ancient news. If you have any ideas, I'm all ears!

Whoa, so awesome that this newsletter is being read around the dinner table to kiddos! Really glad you're liking it :)

Not my YT channel, but it is me talking. I was super excited to be asked to share some highlights of my archaeohistory newsletter on a pretty well-known channel. Figured I'd share it here in case anyone else loves learning about ancien
