  I was in the process of creating a newsletter template on an email marketing service which was a lot like creating a blog on WP; and I wondered, could I just create a newsletter blog? I know there are some themes that are compatible for news, but I wasn’t sure if/how “the newsletter” could be mailed to subscribers. Any experience, thoughts, insights… What am I missing?

  This article discusses it, but it sounds like very post is a newsletter that is emailed, and I already have a blog, I want the emailed “newsletter”to send out a compilation of materials.

  The content of the second “newsletter”blog can be any content your wish to include in the newsletter. The second blog can have it’s own follow blog widget for newsletter subscribers. You can create a custom menu on your main blog and include a custom link to your newsletter blog in it.

  Thanks, but when an email goes out to subscribers, it just sends a single post; not an entire “newsletter” (with multiple articles ) correct?

  I’m wondering if I can approximate what a marketing service does (sending out an entire newsletter) with wordpress.com
