even wordpress.com is annoying. no one wants to "pick a theme" and shit

plus you get network effects because its a social media platform, not just a web host. you're incentivized to interact on the website to get mutuals or w/e

Zerohedge was the #1 content aggregator outside of social media for a while, after their Twitter account got banned. If you really wanted readers, you got your shit published on zerohedge AND linked to on citizenfreepress. I assume those sites get zero traffic now since Musk stole their shtick.

Not flame the GME stock pumps were orchestrated by some fags connected to Zerohedge. If you were an actual talented writer trying to push something edgy circa 2020, you could get through to "Tyler" on condition that you bought some GME stock, and provided screenshots to prove it. You had to purchase it through Fidelity or Charles Schwab too, not Robinhood. People did it.

substack and twitter swallowed everything else due to network effects

also search engines don't work anymore so nobody is ever finding you period if you aren't on these platforms

i’m always directed to a substack from external links. i don’t “surf” substack. main benefits just seems like the familiarity of the platform, ease of setup (but i don’t thirst for that), and everyone’s credit card already being on file.

Odd case everyone who ever made serious money off Substack subscriptions was already rich like Matt Taibbi and Steve Kirsch. No one ever launched a career there, and everyone who tried wasted their time.

crazy how google straight up does not work for a variety of topics now unless you put in very specific and machine optimized terms

i've heard ChatGPT content spam combined with top tier SEO formats are also wrecking their models, so maybe there's some hope for a jurassic park type ending to some of this stuff

You only get subscribers if someone steers traffic to you, like Musk telling everyone about "Twitter Files" and linking to Taibbi. Anyone who has subscribers has a bot army promoting them on Twitter. Been that way for years.

Get the "Vigilant Fox" account on X to link to your shit. That's the only one that's actively driving any traffic right now.

Google has tools to test the website performance and SEO. You have to design the site well. Writing I just write normal I dont "SEO" optimize it thats for NPCs, I still get a perfect score writing normal. If its a webapp or your site is filled with cursed javascript, you'll probably have to get cloudflare to keep enough bots away to get perfect performance stats, and quite frankly to not get infested with malware and bots and get your site completely hacked. It's a lot of work honestly. But if you just want to write, like on substack you can probably set up some minimalist page and not deal with all that, might not even need a server idk, I know they have go daddy and places like that these days. Obviously better to have a server, but bots hack that too even if you have some minimalist page. If you dont have a lot of time, maybe try substack first then transfer your content when you get popular.
