What Will Your Substack Be About
5 steps to choose a writing niche
So you want to start a Substack publication? Good for you! It’s easy and it’s free.
The benefit of creating on Substack is that it sends your writing straight to people’s inboxes AND it archives each email as a post on your own publication page. So it’s like having a newsletter and a website all at once. For literally ZERO dollars.
You have nothing to lose.
Why Substack?
Substack is a powerful way to make personal connections with your readers. Plus you can monetize your writing, by offering paid subscriptions to your biggest fans.
If you don’t want paid subscriptions, you can earn money on Substack in other ways, for example by selling ad space in your newsletter, or by selling your own products or services to your subscribers (I earned $1000 this week doing that!).
Or just write for fun. Because Substack is free, there’s no need to monetize ever, if you don’t want to.
Niches on Substack
For your Substack to be successful, you must have something of value to offer your subscribers. Newsletters are transactional: a subscriber gives you space in their inbox and you give them something in return.
