Why move from Substack.
Keep 100% of your revenue
Substack takes 10% of paid subscribers, forever. We charge $0 on transactions. On $5,000/mo in paid subs, that's $500/mo back in your pocket.
Own your audience
Substack can deplatform you, change terms, or shut down. Your email list, your content, your Stripe — you own everything on Ghost.
No platform tax
No 10% take. No $50/mo Substack Pro upsell. No surprise feature removals. Just a flat $8/mo.
Free migration
We import your posts, members, and email list for free. Most migrations take 30 minutes. You go live with a new domain and zero downtime.
The math: Substack vs Leapjuice Ghost.
Sample earnings at $5/month per paid subscriber, annual.
At 1,000 paid subscribers, you keep $6,000 more per year. Substack\'s 10% is forever.
Three steps. 30 minutes.

Questions, answered.
How long does the migration take?
Most migrations complete in 30 minutes. Larger publications (10,000+ subscribers) may take up to 2 hours.
Do I lose my SEO?
No. We set up 301 redirects from your old Substack URLs to your new Ghost URLs, preserving search engine equity.
What about my paid subscribers?
We import them with their billing status. They get a single email announcing the move. They continue to pay through Stripe, with no interruption.
Can I keep my old Substack active during the move?
Yes. We recommend a 1-2 week overlap: old Substack stays live, new Ghost site is up, you gradually point your domain to the new one.
What if I want to move back?
Your data is yours. Export it from Ghost anytime in standard Ghost format. No lock-in.
What about Substack Notes or the chat feature?
Ghost doesn't have a direct equivalent to Notes, but Ghost's native newsletter and member-only posts cover the same use case. We can help migrate your community over.
