Hello Friends! Well, Blogger for some reason is discontinuing the email subscriber notifications on blogs posted on this blogging site beginning in July. We are all (the bloggers here) scrambling to figure out an alternative.
Here's the thing...I have so few followers (and only a couple of regular commenters) and relatively few email subscribers, that I am not sure I am going to prioritize working on this now because I have some other things going on. (Wow, that sounds pathetic. It IS disappointing, but I've not really promoted this blog, so there's that, which makes me grateful of any reader who has shown up!) I have been given some direction about how to look into setting up mailchimp but have not had time to dive into that technological quagmire. Tech stuff is not my forte.
So....if you are seeing this and know me personally, please get in touch with me and maybe we can work something out between us to keep your notifications coming. I used to send the links monthly to a group of friends who supported my writing. I can do that again.
If you are someone who has at some point signed up for email notifications but don't know me personally, first...THANKS FOR READING...and second, for now maybe just jot down the blog address and come visit occasionally.
Once I have a chance to figure this out, I hope to have an email notification of each new post up and running again. For now, I'm at the mercy of the Blogger platform gods.
At least that's the view from here...©
Wow, I'm impressed that your have thirty following by Bloggers. I didn't even know that was a thing until a few days ago when I found out 20 people were following me that way. When I hired someone to make the email notification switched over I had 1,700 Feedburner subscribers (which was an add-on app that is going out of business. But Mailchimp purges nearly 500 of them because, they said they were bots and scammer. Glad they did, if that was the case. It's funny, but I don't follow anyone by email or Bloggers or the other services. The blogs I read are the ones in my blog roll and that's how I keep up.
ReplyDeleteMy followers aren't bloggers -- at least not the ones I know and that's most. And I have only 20 email subscribers, most of whom I don't know so I'm either very happy they subscribe or they are bots and scammers. Rarely does anyone comment. And I don't know what blog roll is. LOL I'm really not very good at this. LOL
DeleteI have several blogs bookmarked. I am one of your email subscribers so I will just bookmark your blog and add it to the list. I am sure many of your readers could do the same.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Carol
I use Feedly for all the blogs I follow (and a bunch of other stuff like comics). It works great for me, and I pretty much never have any problems with it.
