Reader retention

Reader retention is how well you keep the audience you've earned, measured by repeat visits, sustained opens, and subscribers who stay.

Retention asks a harder question than growth: of the people who found you, how many came back? Repeat readers drive most replies, shares, and revenue.

Consistency retains better than intensity. A dependable cadence and a recognizable voice give readers a reason to return, while long silences reset the relationship.
