Great article! I wasn't consistent with notes in the first 4 weeks. But since I post 2 notes a day, my publication grew a lot. So if you're reading this and you are not consistent with notes yet, do yourself a favor and start now 😄

This nails it.

Substack growth isn’t about hacks it’s about reducing friction across discovery, subscription, and trust. Miss one, and everything else stalls.

Thank you for sharing your advice! Consistency with notes is one of my goals for 2026 and your post reassured me that this isn't a waste of time 😅. So thank you for your sharing! 🫡

Really helpful breakdown — especially the focus on discover → subscribe → trust. I wrote a short chapter exploring similar themes about identity and purpose here:

I loved your advice about having a niche. I write about African American quilting. It may be narrow, but I am going to stick with it.
