If I get locked out of my account, or Substack goes away, five years of writing goes away with it, and I don’t want that to happen.
Each Substack post is getting moved, and in its place I write “this post has moved…” along with a link to its new home on WordPress. This removes any duplicate work which might affect my SEO or domain health… but that’s secondary to me owning my work, my writing, my ideas.
Congrats on the move. This is great for longevity and owning your content.
