What’s the best way to monetize email subscribers?

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

The two email platforms I know that help you monetize your newsletters are:

Scientists Are Close to Replicating the First Living Thing - Yahoo

Display ads in emails

beehiiv

Join beehiiv’s affiliate program

Out-of-Body Experiences Could Be Coping Mechanisms Instead of Pathology, New Research Suggests - The Debrief

So, if you’re looking for more ways to monetize your newsletter, beehiiv is the way to go.

Substack

Another difference between the two platforms is that Substack doesn’t encourage promoting your personal and affiliate products in emails, but beehiiv does.

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)).
