I like to read blogs. In order for me to keep up with my favorite blogs. I follow those I can by email. I may not comment on every one I receive. However, I do read and view each and every one. As I only subscribe to the ones I am interested in. Over time, some bloggers stop adding to their blogs. Or start another one and do not post on a daily basis. This helps my email not get blown up with thousands of emails.
Adding a way for visitors to follow your blog by emails is a great way to increase your blog followers. Those that enjoy what they see will help promote your blog by sharing it through various social media sites.
I have added a way for readers to follow through email subscription on Blogger. You can sign through the Hello bar for email subscription. Or use the widget on the side bar. You can set up a hello bar for email subscribers by going to the Hello Bar website. You get notified through a news letter of new content.
If you want to add one using Blogger. You can do so by adding a widget to your side bar. You do that by going to layout. Click on add gadget. A box will pop up with different gadgets. Look through them til you find that says 'follow by email'. Click on the blue + sign. Another box will pop up. All you need to do is click save. Than select save arrangement in orange near the top. Than click view blog. You should see where a 'follow by email' gadget has been added. Anyone can subscribe to your blog and receive a new email each time you create a new blog post.
Have you added a way for readers to subscribe to your blog yet?

I hardly use my e-mail which is a shame.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
I use my email all the time to read new blog post. First thing I do is open my email before doing anything else each afternoon.

Your welcome. Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment.
DeleteAre you talking about signing up for an email list or an RSS feed (which sends email)?
ReplyDeleteEydie :)
The Hello bar is a list. The blogger one uses an RSS feed.
DeleteI have put an email sign-up on both of my blogger blogs.
ReplyDeleteI like seeing those on bloggers sites. If I like what I am reading I will subscribe to emails.
DeleteI have always wondered if they are worth it. I had one but no one signed up
ReplyDeleteI don't have hello bar, but I have follow by e-mail at the top of my sidebar. I wonder if there is a way to find out how many people follow the RSS feed.
ReplyDeleteI've played around with the idea of an e-mail list, or rather a newsletter once a week or so with updates. But I figured I don't have enough readers to bother with that yet.
I don´t have hello bar in my sites but I have put up subcribe and email widget. Thanks for sharing the info.
