I’ve been wanting to add a newsletter to Romperz for quite some time. I thought it would be a huge undertaking, so I’ve been putting it off. A newsletter is a great way for readers to keep up with what is going on with their favorite websites. I like to sign up for newsletters as it serves as a great reminder of websites I really enjoy. Plus I’ll know when those sites have new content - all from my email account.
I’ve signed up for an account on Zookoda.com. They have some great email marketing tools including newsletters. Fill out a few blanks, point Zookoda to your RSS/Atom feed, and choose your template. It’s as easy as that. I never knew it could be so simple to set up a newsletter. By the end of the weekend I hope to have it set up for users to sign up for it.
I always try to spend a little time each weekend promoting Romperz. With the free services of Zookoda, this weekend’s job is done in no time. Having a toddler keeps me fairly busy. It’s great to find a simple solution for something that I thought would be a daunting, time consuming task.
A newsletter is invaluable tool to a website. If a person receives the newsletter and likes what they read, then they may forward it to someone else or tell them about it. I hope those who subscribe to the Romperz newsletter find value in it and will share it with their friends.
