There is a new feature installed on my website and it should be of interest to Readers. Let’s explore!
Blog Via Email
Some people still like to read blogs and some of us have a hard time keeping track of those blogs without a little bit of help. Enter a feature called “blog via email”.
How It Works
Click the subscription button in the blog sidebar to open a new page (hosted by ConvertKit and connected to my email-list account) where you can enter your email address.
You find it here:
Due to EU law regarding GDPR, I use a double-opt in process for all my subscriptions so it will not be enough to register here, but once you receive the confirmation email, there is still a button to click. Hence double.
Within an hour of a new blog post having been published you will then receive an automated email.
Note that this email contains only a paragraph of the blog post. For your convenience there is a “keep reading” feature with a direct link to the blog post, so once you have reached my website, you should be inside that specific blog post right away. Then continue where you were shortly interrupted.
Finally, subscribing to read my blog posts via email does not mean that you opt in for newsletters or anything else related to marketing. I cannot stand receiving emails myself when not having subscribed actively, so there is no chance I will do that to you either.
Please get in touch if you stumble upon problems after having signed up. And if you have questions right now about this, do post them in the comments below!
