关于我们
Substack lets writers connect with their audience on their own terms and earn money doing it. We make it simple for writers to publish to an email list that they own, get discovered on the web, and charge for subscriptions. More than 500,000 people pay to subscribe to writers across the Substack network, and the top writers make millions of dollars a year. Substack’s model depends on the success of writers using Substack – we only make money when they do. “Substack makes it dead simple to start a newsletter and get paid for it.” – Judd Legum, author of Popular Information "Substack gives me a way to connect with my audience on my own terms.” – Lyz Lenz, author of God Land and Men Yell At Me Make something that matters Great writing is valuable.

Big news: as of today, we’ve made it radically easier for anyone to publish on Substack, without setting up a publication. Now anyone with a Substack account can publish posts, on the web or in the app. That means everyone on Substack is now just a couple of clicks away from sharing a piece of their writing, video, or audio with the world.

In making Substack more mobile-friendly, we’re fusing the simplicity of a social app with the economic power of direct subscriptions, and replacing attention with intention.
