Great post, I am already on Substack with publications…can I shift to a personal domain after I have an active publication?

Sure you can.

Great read, and tips.

I have 3 domains. Which one should I use? My name (firstlastname), an abbreviation of that and a domain called spooniedom, a term I am using often

That is really up to you. I usually like short options. But for branding sake, it might be good to use whatever fits the brand best.

Also, thank you so much for being a paid subscriber! I appreciate that a lot!

You’re welcome. I have followed (and sometimes talked to) you on Medium for ages. When I saw you here I wanted to subscribe to support. Don’t have much subscriptions (it adds up), but happy to be part of yours! It has been really interesting to see your development

I stopped writing posts for my WordPress website when I started writing on Medium and then Substack, because it's so much easier to make an attractive post-newsletter on their platforms. Is there an easy way to upload your Substack posts to your WordPress site? I've got a Divi lifetime subscription and just added Divi AI, but I haven't tried it yet.

There seems to be an option for this, though I have never tried it: https://wordpress.com/support/import-from-substack/import-content/
