  Can I add someone else’s email address to my followers? I meet customers at shows and would like to be able to notify them of new posts on my site. They of course have given me permission to do so. I want it to be like a newsletter… showing my latest art work and where I will be showing my work in the near future etc.

  Thanks, Sue

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

  Hi Sue!

  That’s a great question. Usually it’s best for new followers to add themselves so they can choose their own notification settings.

  However, you can invite them to follow and they can confirm via email.

  Here’s how:

  I hope this helps! If you have any other concerns, drop me a note. Thanks much!
