Hi there,
I can help your with that.Here subscribers control their own subscriptions including the frequency with which they choose to be sent your posts. All they are required to provide is an email address and their delivery preferences (instantly, daily, weekly, never).
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/
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.

You could create a Subscribe Page.http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ and place the shortcode on it. We have a subscription shortcode which you can make use of. The help page on it is right here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/blog-subscription-shortcode/
Create a custom menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/ and add the page into it. http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-pagesYou could also simply include the subscription shortcode at the end of every post you publish.
Note: You can create a Page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ and place a contact form on it for private communication with your visitors, or for opting into receiving a newsletter for example. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/
