How To Add A Subscriber Opt-in Form
A few subscribers mailed asking how to add an opt-in form to their blog so here’s how you do it…
You’ll need an auto responder service and before you ask, there is no BEST one. There are two major players in the market place and I use this one here which has a free trail.
Watch their video tutorials on how to configure your first mailing list.
Now you can watch the above video again and you’ll be golden.
Don’t forget to think through what is in it for the person you want to join your list.
People, including me are always thinking in terms of “What’s in it for me?” so make sure your wording for the opt-in box is user wants centered. Not needs. We all know what we need but our wants is what gets us to take actions.

I’m certain that slapping an image in there is just as easy.
Keep the Simple flowing…..
