  Hi all techies,

  I have a wordpress blog, and I would like to add a pop-up for new visitors on my site that allows them to follow by E-mail.

  I don’t think my access allows me to install a plug-in, so was there any way I could embed it, or add some sort of widget??? I have tried a few things but to no luck so far and my techie skills are average.

  Thank you in advance for your support!

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

  Hi there!

  We try to make it as easy as possible for your readers to subscribe to your blog with or without a WordPress.com account. There are some follow options built into your site already. Anyone who is logged into a WordPress.com account will see this Follow button at the top of your site:

  

  Anyone who is not logged into a WordPress.com account will see this at the bottom of their browser window when visiting your site:

  In addition, we have two widgets that you can add to give your readers easy ways to follow your blog.

  1. The Follow Blog widget adds a box where viewers can subscribe to your site via email.

  2. The Follow Button widget adds a button that WordPress.com users can click to follow your site.

  The email options will not require your followers to create a WordPress.com account. However, they will need to confirm that their subscription by clicking a link in a confirmation email from WordPress.com.

  Let me know if I can help with anything else!
