  How do I add an Aweber email list sign-up form to one of my pages? I have tried pasting both the HTML and the Javascript into the page with no result.

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

  Hi there,

  We block certain embed codes from WordPress.com for security reasons as explained here:

  Add Code to Your Site

  The code you’re trying to use is likely blocked. Instead of embedding the form, I would recommend inserting a link on your sidebar that links readers to an Aweber-hosted sign-up form similar to the process described here (#4):

  This will not work for me as I need the form to part of the pages content. I will have to take my domain and build my site elsewhere. Sorry.

  Not a problem! I definitely understand. If you’re looking to move to a self-hosted site, the Premium bundle will no longer be advantageous (as it only works at WordPress.com). You can disable the auto renewal option here so you will not be charged moving forward:

  Your domain (perceptiveperson.com) cannot be transferred within 60 days of registration. However, you can still use it with another hosting service by following the instructions here:

  Change a Domain’s Name Servers

  Then, after the 60-day window, you can transfer it to another registrar following the instructions here:

  Transfer a Domain to Another Registrar

  Please let me know if you need anything else!
