Wonderful! I can picture receiving and gifting a 'surprise' recommendation, and the joy that accompanies such an offering. Thank you for sharing, Saira! ๐๐๐
Recommendations are amazing, and I love how this entire platform is built around supporting one another. Currently, about 64.5% of my subscribers come from recommendations. A large number from 1 very aligned publication. I do think it's important to keep a check on who you're recommending. Many people stop publishing over time. I want the people I recommend to really benefit from my recommendation. The more you recommend, the less each gets seen. Also, if I do choose to recommend a publication, I also make a point of connecting with them and supporting them regularly. So, it has to be something I'm genuinely interested in.
I sincerely appreciate your thoughtful comments and thank you very much for taking the time to read this post. The desire for community was one of the main reasons I came to Substack, and I wholeheartedly agree that it is through our connections and support of one another that we thrive. I also appreciate your note about being mindful of recommendations. Iโm truly grateful our paths have crossed and look forward to sharing this journey with you.
I have avoided making a lot of recommendations as when I subscribe to others and am offered a long list of other people to subscribe to, I always decline as I want donโt want a lot of unwanted emails! I didnโt want to present new subscribers with the same problem. Am I missing something, Lis?
Hello, Charles! Thank you very much for taking the time to read and comment upon this post. I completely understand your wish not to add a plethora of emails to wade through or present that same issue to new subscribers. Ever since researching the power of recommendations, I am now very inspired to recommend other Substacks regularly. I tend to do so one at a time, but I wanted to present all of the options available to readers within this article. May your day be filled with deep beauty and peace. I greatly appreciate your careful reading of this post, as it inspired me to make a few edits and improve the content. Thank you! ๐๐๐
