The two email platforms I know that help you monetize your newsletters are:
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
How the Menstrual Cycle Affects ADHD - The Cut
You won’t know until you try out multiple options and find out which is the best way for you.
Earn money by recommending other beehiiv newsletters
Substack
Can I bring a tub of whey protein to the airport?
So, if you’re looking for more ways to monetize your newsletter, beehiiv is the way to go.
Display ads in emails
Another difference between the two platforms is that Substack doesn’t encourage promoting your personal and affiliate products in emails, but beehiiv does.
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
Join beehiiv’s affiliate program
Meanwhile, Substack could still be a better option if you like its overall features better….it does have some that aren’t available on beehiiv (especially community-building features like chats, discussion threads, and Notes (aka Twitter clone)).
