Mailing List Widget for Your Website
9/18/2026 · Elliyas Ahmed
Add a simple mailing list widget to your website and let visitors subscribe to your latest posts by email.
With SendRSS, you can turn your existing RSS or Atom feed into an email subscription system without building a newsletter platform from scratch.
What Is a Mailing List Widget?
A mailing list widget is a signup form that you place on your website to collect email subscribers.
Visitors enter their email address through the widget and confirm their subscription from their inbox. Once confirmed, they can receive new posts from your RSS feed by email.
SendRSS provides a mailing list signup widget designed for publishers, bloggers, and website owners who want to build an email audience around the content they already publish.
Create a Mailing List From Your RSS Feed
If your website already has an RSS or Atom feed, you can use that feed with SendRSS.
The basic process is simple:
- Add your RSS or Atom feed to SendRSS.
- Create your email signup widget.
- Add the widget to your website.
- Visitors enter their email address.
- They confirm their subscription.
- New posts are delivered to confirmed subscribers.
You do not need to manually create an email every time you publish a new article.
Mailing List Widget for Blogger and WordPress
SendRSS can be used with Blogger, Blogspot, WordPress, and other websites that support a small script or iframe.
You can place the signup form where it makes sense for your website, including:
- Inline within your content or page
- A modal signup form
- A floating signup bar
The same feed can be used across the available widget formats.
Let Readers Confirm Their Subscription
SendRSS uses double opt-in for mailing list subscriptions.
When someone enters an email address, it remains pending until the reader confirms the subscription from their inbox. This means an address is not treated as a confirmed subscriber until the confirmation step is completed.
Readers can also unsubscribe from emails and request that their data be erased.
A Mailing List Widget Without Reader Tracking
SendRSS is built around a privacy-first approach to RSS-to-email and lead capture.
The email does not include ads or open pixels. SendRSS does not wrap links to track clicks or build reader profiles, and it does not sell subscriber data.
The widget is designed to collect the information needed for the mailing list rather than act as a reader tracker.
Keep Your Mailing List
Your subscriber list belongs with your publishing workflow.
SendRSS lets you export subscriber information as CSV and provides a full account export. Confirmed and pending addresses can be included in the CSV export.
You can also purge a list when needed.
This gives you a practical way to maintain and manage the email audience built through your website.
Send New Posts to Your Mailing List
After connecting your feed and setting up your list, SendRSS can automatically send new posts according to your plan cadence.
The email contains your post information and sends the reader back to the article on your website.
That means your mailing list can become another way for readers to discover the content you already publish, rather than sending them to a separate hosted reading page.
Simple Mailing List Setup
You do not need to replace your website or create a separate publishing workflow.
Your existing website remains the place where you publish. Your existing RSS feed provides the content. The SendRSS widget gives visitors a way to subscribe, while SendRSS handles confirmation and email delivery.
Website → Mailing List Widget → Email Confirmation → New Post → Reader Returns to Your Website
