What’s the best way to monetize email subscribers?

Earn money by recommending other beehiiv newsletters

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:

iPhone 18 Pro With Under-Screen Face ID Now Rumored to Feature Smaller Dynamic Island - MacRumors

Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers

Join beehiiv’s affiliate program

Substack

Woman suing Costco after alleged severe store-related injury - MyNorthwest.com

beehiiv

Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers

Display ads in emails

Why did my ex replace me so fast?

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)).

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