2. Personalizing it – Creating and adding a subscription form to your website

Subscription forms can be included in your website or blog so the visitors can provide their data to receive emails about topics of relevance and/or interest. Fundamentally, a subscription form is designed to register subscribers to your mailing list.

Why this is important

Subscription forms are a legal and convenient way for subscribers to provide you their information. The process of creating and setting them up is very straightforward. One of the great advantages of email marketing is that it allows you to target groups based on various criteria. By adding some of these criteria to your subscribe form, you can personalize your emails. As a general rule of thumb, however, requesting too much information may lead to less interest in subscribing. You’ll need to start by creating a form that’s tailored to your needs.
