  I want to have readers subscribe to a newsletter I can send via email. Is it possible to have the reader leave their email on my blog-without the rest of the world seeing it–so that I know they also want to newsletter? Or do I have post my email in a blog post and have the person send me an email instead? I know they can subscribe to the blog. I have that up already–but this is for things I don’t want to post on the blog but some people might be interested in. Is there a widget or something else I can do?

  Thank you.

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

  No, if they leave it in a comment, the rest of the world, including the spammers, will see it. Create a custom contact form strictly for that purpose. You can even put it in the sidebar if you wish.
