How I enabled Email subscription which offers feed updates via email on my blog with Google Feedburner
Email subscription service through Google Feedburner is another great service to offer to the visitors. Enabling the Feedburner was not so difficult, just follow the following simple steps:
You’ll need an email subscription service that’ll send out an email for you. In my case I used Google Feedburner. You may have a look at my email subscription form in the right sidebar to see how it looks and works.
First setup a Feedburner feed if you don’t have one already. Then follow these steps:
- Go to Google www.Feedburner.com and login
- Click “My Feeds” from top panel
- Select your feed from the list
- Click the “Publicize” tab
- Click “Email Subscriptions”, you may find it on the left hand side of the page
- Click “Activate” button
- Copy the HTML code from the box
- Login to your WordPress blog’s administration area
- Click the Appearance section from the left panel and click “Widgets” which is a sub-tab. Add a “Text” widget to the sidebar you want, and paste the HTML code. Save your changes by clicking “Save Changes” button.
