How I Grew My Substack Newsletter Views by 1080% in 60 Days🤯
You’re excluding yourself from a game you should be playing - no matter how small your newsletter is. Follow my guidance and be seen.
As I’m preparing my presentation for this year’s Notes Kickstarter Bootcamp in March, I was thrilled to see that I reached 118,000 views within the last 30 days.
I wondered where this huge increase was coming from, reached out to Substack, and, with my data-driven marketing manager brain, checked the charts with the total traffic from 2024 compared to 2025.
In 2024, the traffic lived and died by new newsletter editions.
The chart basically looks like a heartbeat monitor for my newsletter—every time I send a new issue, BOOM, a big spike in views.
And then things settle down until the next send. It's a classic pattern when most traffic comes from email blasts.
Now, fast forward to 2025, and things are looking way different.
In 2025, my newsletter has momentum. See it for yourself:
8,000 views on some days is huge.
