How Do I Add An Email Subscription Box To My Blog?
Question: Can you tell me how I can add a box/link to my blog where people can put they’re own email in and receive updates when I add to my blog?
You’re talking about a subscribe box. Usually these are created from your RSS feed. To create an email subscription from your RSS feed, follow these steps.
1. Create an account at Feedburner.com.
2. Burn your feed in Feedburner.
3. Go to the “publicize” tab.
4. Click on the “email subscriptions” link in the left hand side navigation.
5. Follow instructions.
Now, paste the code they give you into your blog sidebar and save your blog template. Now anyone who wants to subscribe to your blog via email can!

its good idea.but how often the feedburner redirects to its login page! It really bad experience. But i appreciate that its the best email subscription service. And it offers much more. Thanks for the article.

Feedburner.com is a great way to run an email list for your Blog. But, if you are also looking for a more powerful solution beyond just sending your readers blog updates, many email autoresponder services (GetResponse for example) provide Plugin Widgets for Wordpress and other blogs.
