Best newsletter platforms?
Over the years I've used pretty much every newsletter platform. I started on Mailchimp, then moved to Drip, then to Convertkit (now Kit), then to Substack and now I'm publishing on beehiiv. And I've built and sold five newsletter businesses on both Substack and beehiiv. For me, beehiiv is now so far out in front in terms of: 1. Built-in monetization tools: - It's own ad network delivering both CPM and CPC placements you can add with one click 2. Growth features: - Referral program - Newsletter recommendations - "Boosts" to promote to other audiences Helps grow subscriber base more easily. 3. All-in-one platform: - Newsletter builder - Website hosting - 3D Analytics 4. Affordable pricing: - Free plan up to 2,500 subscribers - Paid plans start at $39/month 5. No fees on paid subscriptions: Unlike Substack which takes 10%, beehiiv doesn't take a cut of subscription revenue. 6. Modern, intuitive interface: Clean design and easy-to-use tools, especially compared to older platforms. 7. AI writing assistant: Built-in AI tools to help with content creation. 8. Multiple publications: Can create and manage multiple newsletters from one account. 9. Powerful automation and segmentation: Advanced tools for targeting and automating emails. 10. API access: Even on free plan, allows for integrations and customization. What do you guys think?
