Choose a Substack service by target

Decide whether the target is the publication, one post or a Note, then compare the listing's metric and limits.

Publication audience

Subscribers belong to the publication, so use its main Substack URL.

Check: publication URL and audience category

Post activity

Post listings work on one post, so submit the URL of that specific post.

Check: post URL and metric

Notes activity

Notes are public short posts that are not emailed. Use a Note link only when the listing names Notes.

Publications, posts and Notes reach readers differently

A Substack post can go out to subscribers by email, while Notes are public short-form posts and readers are never emailed when a new Note is published. Restacking a post, Note or comment shares it inside Substack and is not sent by email either. That is why a publication URL, a post URL and a Note link are separate targets, and a listing should name the one it works on.

How Substack's dashboard counts readers

Every writer's dashboard shows total subscribers, combined post views and average open rate over the past 30 days. Paid publications also see paid subscribers and gross annualized revenue. A post view, an email open and a subscriber are three different measures, and the subscriber list can be filtered by paid or free status and by email activity.

Choose with clear service data

Use filters and sorting to compare price, buyer feedback and average start time. Start time measures the first observed delivery, not completion of the full quantity. Refill and drip-feed depend on the selected service. Ordinary one-time orders have a 15-second pre-dispatch cancellation window; eligible ordinary orders still unresolved after seven days receive a full original-charge Wallet refund, even if delivery happens later.

Frequently asked questions

Still unsure?

Contact support

Which Substack link does a listing need?

Use the publication URL for publication-level listings, the URL of one post for post listings and a Note link only when the listing names Notes. Notes and posts reach readers differently on Substack, so they are not interchangeable targets.

Are post views the same as email opens on Substack?

No. Substack's dashboard reports combined post views and average open rate as separate figures for the past 30 days, so a listing for one does not change the other.

Do subscribers get an email when I post a Note?

No. Substack says readers are never emailed for each new Note. Readers who follow several writers may get an email digest of Notes they missed, and readers subscribed only to you do not get that digest.

What is a restack on Substack?

A restack shares a post, Note or comment with your own followers inside Substack, using the circle-arrow icon. Substack says that, unlike cross-posting, a restack is not sent out by email.
