GA4 wasn't built for Substack. Here's what goes wrong.
Substack analytics focus only on email metrics — you have zero visibility into web traffic, search rankings, or social media referrals
There's no way to add Google Analytics to a standard Substack publication, leaving writers blind to their web audience
Substack's dashboard doesn't show which posts drive organic search traffic — critical for writers building SEO-driven audiences
No geographic or device data means you can't tailor your content strategy to your actual audience
Built for speed, simplicity, and privacy.
