Everyone knows that getting more e-mail subscriptions is every serious blogger’s number one goal. If you’re looking to grow your blog, getting more subscribers by e-mail is the way to go. So how can you optimize your site to get more subscribers? How can you tweak your design to get a greater percentage of visitors to subscribe? The answer to those questions is different for every website, but this post will show you six tweaks the pros use to get more e-mail subscriptions. Many bloggers make the mistake of placing their e-mail opt-in box in the middle of the right-hand sidebar. For some reason they think that categories or calendars are more important than getting more people to sign up. That’s just not true.

I really like the Tweak #2: The e-mail feature box:

It’s a box that sits above the main blog feed and collects e-mail addresses from site visitors. Due to the prominent placement, it’s an excellent way to get more subscriptions, and it’s becoming more and more popular as a way to increase e-mail subscriptions for blogs.

Why not!
