  1. How do I insert a “subscribe to my newsletter” widget (www.happilytickedoff.com)

  2. How do I collect the emails from these signup for business purposes? (The second question is for a friend who has an acupuncture website: http://www.martinaeberhard.com)

  Forgot to say that A Weber is an add-on many people use for newsletter/email collection. Thoughts?

  It’s not possible to insert an A Weber form into a WordPress.com-hosted blog. Instead, you may want to have A Weber host your form and provide a link from your WordPress.com site for readers to sign up for your newsletter.

  Alternatively, you can use a custom contact form to collect email addresses for visitors to your site who are interested in receiving a newsletter:
