Importing my email subscriber list into my new WordPress.com site
-
Importing subscribers from my Constant Contact account to my WordPress.com blog site. I do not see where I can import all of my contacts and begin blogging from WordPress and cancel my Constant Contact account. Any information on how to do this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I’m sorry but there is no means of importing your list from Constant Contact. There is no such mass mailing feature here at WordPress.com. Your followers can subscribe to receive your posts by email and they can control the frequency of receipt. However, when subscribers or commenters provide an email address for a specific purpose you cannot use it for any other purpose. In fact doing that in some countries like Canada is against the law.
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 can customize the contact form with multiple fields, change the email address where you’ll be notified, and mark feedbacks as spam from your dashboard. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/
