With subscription forms your visitors can subscribe themselves to receive your email newsletters. By default WpNewsman uses three fields in the subscription form: first name, last name and email address. You can customize the subscription form as you need to gather the subscriber’s information that meets your marketing needs.
You can display your subscription form in your sidebar or footer area just by adding the widget in the right area.
