Landing page creation
-
Trying to build a landing page focused on acquiring emails. What’s the best approach, tools, add-ons, etc?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can create a Subscribe page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ add and customize a contact form with multiple fields, change the email address where you’ll be notified, and mark feedbacks as spam where required from your dashboard on that page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/
That is where you can boldly and clearly state that you intend to harvest the email addresses of anyone who choose to submit theirs.Note that many of us use throwaway email addresses deliberately so we cannot be harassed by receiving anything such as mass marketing email that we did not specifically subscribe to receive.

re: wordpress.com blog subscriptions
All that’s required to follow any blog hosted by wordpress.COM is exactly what you were required to provide to register here, and that is a valid email address that the published posts can be sent to.
Here subscribers control their own subscriptions and frequency of receipt of posts from sites they subscribe to. We cannot act on their behalf.
You can set up email subscriptions here > Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets > Follow Blog Widget by using this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/
Widgets can be configured to appear only on certain pages (or be hidden on certain pages) by clicking on the Visibility button.
https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/#widget-visibilityWe 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/ You can also include the subscription shortcode at the end of every post you publish.
Here is the link to the guide you must use for mailchimp https://en.support.wordpress.com/mailchimp
