Daniel Hunter

Daniel recounts his journey on Substack, realizing that chasing subscriber numbers through paid advertising proved unsustainable. He aims for a fresh start, prioritizing authentic connections with a targeted, engaged audience over inflated subscriber counts. Inspired by writers like Emily Sundberg and Noah Smith, Daniel plans to publish daily, taking a journalistic approach while sharing his struggles and insights weekly in 'The Lab' section. His goal is cultivating genuine relationships by providing value, challenging perspectives, and learning from readers. The focus shifts from growing numbers to fostering meaningful reader engagement.
