| thanks to everybody who answered, but here is some more info that hopefully make my question clearer: I ALREADY have a blog, with plenty of content. If enough people saw it and told me "it sucks, just stop", I would accept it, nobody owns me anything. BUT... The reason to look for a newsletter is that as things stand now, I have plenty of proofs that almost nobody ever gets to even *see* it. THAT is the problem I need to solve. It's the fact that these days: 1: almost nobody uses RSS, because they're sincerely convinced that "it stopped working when Google killed Reader" (I've lost count of how many times I've heard this specific bit of falsehood) 2: on social media, almost nobody bothers to click and read the conclusion of any article at its original URL. And I can't stand anymore having to give answers like "please note that the third paragraph of this post that I shared
explicitly answers what you just asked" 3: point 2) would not change at all by switching to another CMS 4: points 2 and 3 are irrelevant anyway because Twitter, FB etc... just shadowban whoever does not pay them. As I say, I have plenty of proofs that almost nobody ever gets to SEE what I post there. Even stuff that should surely get through, e.g. polite notification that there was a typo in a post, or requests to provide further reading on some topic Summarizing, if the only way left these days to be sure that people do SEE AND READ all I wrote from top to bottom, at least once or two is a newsletter... so be it. But it has to be something optimized for "newslettering", that facilitates as much as possible to find subscribers, and SURELY allows points 3 and 4 of my original question. So what about them? Thx |
