Generate URL to send out to help people follow my blog.
-
I know how to generate a button using their javascript generator on wordpress.com. I am hoping to have a url address that I can send people. Ideally it would take them to a subscription screen to enter email and become a follower of my blog. Is that possible on wordpress.com?

See here for installing the follow blog widget https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/
You can also use the Blog Subscription Shortcode https://en.support.wordpress.com/blog-subscription-shortcode/
You cannot use the MailChimp embed code or the Aweber embed code and cannot create a pop-up on a wordpress.COM hosted blog. You can create a sign up page on MailChimp or on Aweber only and link to it.
If you want to use MailChimp with your WordPress.com site here’s the info from MailChimp Support http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-to-add-a-mailchimp-signup-form-to-your-wordpress-blog

thank you @timetheif
I have the widget on my blog dawhat.wordpress.com. Is there a way for me to send you/anyone an email that says “to subscribe to Da-What, please click here) with a hyperlink to subscribe as a follower on WordPress. Not on Mailchimp, but signing up with a wordpress account or email address.Is my best option to send a link to my website homepage with instructions to click the widget in the to right corner?
