Question 1

How does it work?

Accepted Answer

In a nutshell:

You enter your website url into the field here.
This will show you how to embed the follow options (subscription form, icons etc.) on your website.
Your website visitors follow you, and we alert them whenever you published a new story.

The process is fully automatic, so you don’t have to worry about crafting newsletters, but can fully focus on creating great content – and we’ll make sure your followers come back to your website!
