My wise friend Mel mentioned to me last week that having a way for The Readership to subscribe to the blog would be useful. That way people don’t have to remember to check for new posts. Instead, each time I publish, a notification email will automatically arrive in their inbox with a click-through link. How nifty! Funnily enough my witty cousin had been hoping for a similar thing just the previous week.
No more having to sniff out new posts, now they will just run into your mouth (so to speak).
So, after much research into blog email subscription plug-ins, and a few false starts (I really couldn’t bear the thought of subjecting you to ungrammatical and ugly notification emails. You’re welcome!), I am happy to announce that subscribing is now a thing over here at Cowboy Boots & Broken Fingers.
Here is the form to fill in if you fancy having alerts to new posts sent to your email (the form will also stay on the home page sidebar, top right, for future reference).
How very grown-up-blogger of me!
is there a signing bonus? of the Whittakers Artisan kind?
Since you are my first subscriber I’m going to go one better. Meet me on Gong night at a certain Whangarei establishment and I’ll buy you a slice of cheesecake. Can’t say fairer than that!
Ooooh I’ve never subscribed to a Blog before!
The amount of time it will save the DHB from me not checking will be tremendous 🙂
Goodness yes, that’s all time you could have been using to attend team breakfasts (in your tiara – your other efficency measure) x
I would just like to comment on the elegant simplicity of your form. It is barely a form at all. Amazing!!!
I take that as the highest compliment from a woman who is no stranger to form filling, in a work environment where simple and elegant forms do not feature. I miss many things about SLC, but I don’t miss the HCC forms!
