我想做一个通讯,但我意识到自己是在给它筑起一个牢笼。
我即将推出一份通讯,但在选择合适的平台时遇到了困扰。
一方面,像Substack这样的平台简单易用,确实很吸引人。我只想专注于写作。
但如果我选择这个方向,每一篇文章都将对谷歌不可见,被困在他们的生态系统中。我相当于在别人的土地上租用我的受众。
另一种选择是使用WordPress博客,但每周除了写作之外,还要与插件和更新作斗争,感觉压力很大。
对于那些有过类似经历的人:
1. 如果你今天重新开始,你会怎么做?
2. 在封闭平台上,发现问题真的像我想象的那么严重吗,还是我在过度思考?

I'm about to launch a newsletter and I'm stuck picking the right platform.<p>On one hand, the simplicity of something like Substack is tempting. I just want to focus on writing.<p>But if I go that route, every post will be invisible to Google, trapped inside their ecosystem. I'll be renting my audience on someone else's land.<p>The alternative is a WordPress blog, but wrestling with plugins and updates on top of writing every week feels overwhelming.<p>For those of you who have been down this road:<p>1. If you were starting over today, what would you do?
2. Is the discoverability problem on closed platforms as bad as I'm imagining, or am I overthinking it?
