  Hi
  Is there a way to insert a link or a form in every post that easily allows readers to subscribe to the blog?

  Any tips on getting more subscribers ?

  many thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  We do have a follow blog widget that can be placed in your sidebar or footer area for widgets. You can set up email subscriptions here > Appearance > Widgets > Follow Blog Widgets by using this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/

  For a direct link to subscribe to a blog that you copy and paste into every post see here http://wp.me/pinhe-iU

  If you would like a follow button to appear on the bottom right hand corner of your site for those who do not have WordPress.com accounts go to > Settings > Reading and scroll down to Follower Settings:

  These settings change emails sent from your blog to followers.
  Logged out users __ Show follow button to logged out users.

  Checking this will present a follow button to logged out users in the bottom corner of their screen.

  Find Friends Who Use WordPress > http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2012/05/01/find-friends/

  You can customize the contact form with multiple fields, change the email address where you’ll be notified, and mark feedbacks as spam from your dashboard. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

  You can create a sign up page on MailChimp directly and simply link to it from your WordPress.com site. Here’s their instructions http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-to-add-a-mailchimp-signup-form-to-your-wordpress-blog
