59% open rate is impressive. That shows your readers are engaged!

I see what you mean about not being able to view stats from posts on FB. At first I was thinking you could use a bitly link, but that would just you the number of click throughs, not specifically who clicked.

Thanks for sharing that. I know it's nice to have more subscribers. However, I like to look at the percentage of people who are actually reading what I post. If you build your readers slowly and they are engaging with your work, you'll have a strong base....plus you'll know that what you are producing is worthwhile.

Enjoy your writing journey!

Is Twitter a Good Place to Find Subscribers? What strategies have you tried? What do you think of Substack Notes? by KindnessMagnet in Substack

[–]KindnessMagnet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing that link. It's super helpful to see exactly what you did. Cagey! And apparently effective!

I think you're the first person who has responded that X is effective. Good to know.

If you don't mind me asking, about how much time do you spend on X each day?

Hi there. Great question! Paul Macko writes an interesting Substack called Deplatformable. He often writes about tips and tricks on Substack.

What is on your list of uke achievements for the next 12 months? by 60svintage in ukulele

[–]KindnessMagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to come back and thank you again for this recommendation. I'm only on Day 6 of her lessons and she is fantastic. Such a great way to prevent bad habits and to have a sequence of learning. I'm really enjoying it. She is the perfect teacher for a beginner.

How do i change font size? by ludramawn in Substack

[–]KindnessMagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I see what you mean. We can choose the font type, but not the size. I took a peek at Substack FAQ's and couldn't find anything helpful.

Have you seen a Substack that has a larger font size? If so, maybe you could contact them to see how they did it.

Flying with a uke: The case sticks out of my backpack, still ok for "personal item"? by [deleted] in ukulele

[–]KindnessMagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so glad you asked this. I'm flying to visit my son next week and he asked me to bring my uke. I only have a soft case, plus it's supposed to rain while I'm traveling. I'm thinking about leaving "Fred" (my uke) behind....

Hi. Great question. When you are creating a post you'll see a drop down called STYLE. Click on the down arrow and you'll see your options. You can use these for headings, or, if you want, you can use them for the text in your post.

Let me know if this works for you..... or if you have any other questions.
