Hey Linda, can I get a follow to help my notes visibility with other authors? If I understand the system right, which I might not, authors notes are visible to their followers and their follower's followers. If so, I may have an easier time connecting with other authors that way.
Is there a way to easily set up a subscription page on substack to drive traffic from social ads too? I've been experimenting with ads and found it's easy to get people to the site - but subscriptions is low. I'd like to drive them to a designated subscribe page with some sort of reward or benefit from subscribing.
Hi Linda, thanks for this post and all your support of Substack Finance writers! I would like to discuss a potential third party integration for book authors who publish newsletters on Substack and want to use one of their published books as a giveaway incentive to generate new subscribers. Full disclosure, I am a happy customer of the service, so this is a referral idea not a sales pitch. Please reach out to me at your convenience. Best, David J. Waldron, Quality Value Investing.
Just started my substack a couple weeks ago ! Your newsletter is excellent. I am trying to get followers now to grow visibility and traction with mine!
Morning. How can I add a subscribe or upgrade to paid button to a segment of my site? I know how to do it into a post, but how do I do it in the short description. That is Settings > Basics > Short description. I can see others have a button here, like this: https://www.bigtechnology.com/ How can I add one too.
I am hesitant to pepper people with the Subscribe button.
I am curious to see what percentage of subscriptions come from the subscribe button in posts and what from prompts - does Substack have such data on hand to share?
Thanks for this. New to Substack! One question: I noticed when I go to Substack Home, on most posts there people have a little "subscribe" link right beneath their name. I cannot seem to figure out how to do that. Any help?
Hi Linda, I'm a newbie and enjoying your help articles. Are these buttons the same thing as "Subscribe prompts on post pages" under Settings? I want to ensure prompts aren't plopped in the middle of posts, it's a bit distracting to the reader and breaks the flow. If I toggle off the subscribe prompts does this preclude using buttons?

Thanks for sharing!
Would be curious to know how buttons with and without caption compare in terms of conversion rate?
Also a suggestion: Adding something like *cancel anytime* in fine print below the button could make sense (I've put it above, but it’s not ideal)
How did you add that subscribe button at the top of your newsletter?
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for writing this, Linda!
Is there a way to change the default captions for the button for all posts?
I curate top Climate news stories from around the globe everyday - could I get a follow so more people find the publication? Thank you!

Hi Linda!!!
Sorry to bother, is there a limit on how many people I can follow on substack?
It looks like the follow button doesn’t work for me.
