MASTERCLASS: Ciler Demiralp analyzed 75,000 Substack newsletters and will share her insights and recommendations with you today, 3pm EST
I know so many of you have been waiting for today’s masterclass! I’m thrilled that today is THE DAY!
I love the NEW Substack Report. Ciler wrote a guest post for the Club, and I interviewed her on my podcast and YouTube channel.
And the response was mind-blowing! We got soooo many questions, replies, restacks, and hearts.
Still, only 1% of Substack writers know about the report.
Join them to get ahead of most writers by making informed decisions and taking the guesswork out of your (new) Substack journey.
Join our educational LIVE workshop today at 3 pm EST…
where Ciler is gonna explain the data and share her recommendations.
You can ask all your questions and become strategic about your Substack growth in 2025.
Join our 100% fluff-free and 100% VALUE-packed LIVE workshop today.
This was challenging, but Ciler is excited to share some highlights with us:
- First, 87.2% of the newsletters are in English, the biggest group. Portuguese came second.
- Monthly publishing is the most preferred frequency (24%), followed by weekly newsletters (21%) among 75k newsletters.
- 36% of the newsletters offer a paid plan, which makes up 27K newsletters among 75k newsletters.
- Among 20K active newsletters that offer paid subscriptions, the average subscription prices are:
Avg. Monthly Price: $10
Avg. Yearly Price: $96
Avg. Founding Price: $310
- 82% of 75K newsletters have less than 10K subscribers.
- There are 212 newsletters with 100K or more subscribers.
- There are four newsletters with 1 million or more subscribers.
- Running a newsletter is a solo business. 95% of active newsletters are run by one person, which is valid for both paid and free newsletters.
The objective of Ciler’s report:
Provide a clearer picture of the Substack landscape and its users
Explore newsletter operators’ behaviors
Identify opportunities within the newsletter market
