I just started a newsletter in the new year and yesterday noticed about half a dozen questionable direct email signups. Sounds like they are ripe for culling.
Any other advice or thoughts on these spammy sign ups?
We've all been conditioned to think more is better, but scrubbing your list of cold subscribers regularly is one of the best things you can do for your project's health.
I wondered about this today, and you commented on a post I just released. So naturally, I clicked over to Deplatformable and found this. Just what I needed!
I have a question: is there a difference between subscribers who open an email and those who read newsletters via app. I use app to read all newsletters I’m subscribed to, for example.
I had never thought to do this. Great stuff as always Paul. Thank you! Although im still hesitant to do anything to make my sub count go down but its for the best! right?
Good stuff, Paul!
Paul, can you go over this on Friday?
...arrrghh...more work...but good work...ty...

This is really helpful. Thank you, Paul 🙂
Enlightening, and love Mr. Scrubby too. Thank you Paul!!!
I never thought of these points but they make a lot of sense! Thanks for the great post, Paul!
I love your recommendation to segment the list and do a campaign to them. I hadn't thought you could do that within Substack so this is awesome!
‘Scrub email list’, now high on my marketing to do list, along with SEO and segmentation...
Thanks, Paul, for sharing.
