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.

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

Join beehiiv’s affiliate program

Once-a-week pill for schizophrenia shows promise in clinical trials - MIT News

Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers

Earn money by recommending other beehiiv newsletters

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.

Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers

Thin, Light and Built to Last: The New Era of the Galaxy Z Series - Samsung Newsroom

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)).
