Earn money by recommending other beehiiv newsletters
The two email platforms I know that help you monetize your newsletters are:
beehiiv
Capivasertib given to breast cancer patients in Wales for first time - BBC
Display ads in emails
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
Join beehiiv’s affiliate program

You won’t know until you try out multiple options and find out which is the best way for you.
Monetize access to your content with subscription tiers
Another difference between the two platforms is that Substack doesn’t encourage promoting your personal and affiliate products in emails, but beehiiv does.

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