Holy macarooney! This is so jam packed with awesome advice. I bow down before all the work and time it took to pull this together. May your karma be 100% positive for at least the next two decades. Have already been digging in and will be bumping up your article views with repeated checks on more things to do.
this is great and i definitely wish i would have read this first. By tagline do you mean the website description? is there a best word count? And man I am struggling with the right category for my life essays.... THANKS!
Great guide, but quite challenging; I got lost halfway and need to revisit it with more focus. Any tips? I look forward to applying these ideas and beginning to grow. I'll also check the related articles and videos.
Jurgen, thanks for this guide, it will be very helpful to us beginners on Substack.
What an amazing awesome guide! Thanks for creating and sharing.

Yes, tagline is short description.

Save it and do it section by section. Only continue with the next after you implemented the previous one.
Thank you Jurgen - I’ve been on the fence between self hosted (Kit) newsletter and Substack for a while.
What are your thoughts on repurposing “greatest hits” content from an existing blog as part of a substack launch ?
I’d say go for it.
Better than starting from scratch.
