Add a Newsletter sign up box to Facebook – Mailing List Series
Facebook is still huge. For pages, it might no longer be the same as it was, with fewer of our followers now seeing the posts, but it is still an important resource for bloggers and you should continue to maintain and market your page and use it to bring visitors to your site and subscribers to your newsletter. So in this video in the Mail Chimp Tutorial Series, I’ll be showing you how easy it is to add a newsletter sign up tab to your menu and a sign up form to your Facebook page.
If you don’t yet have a subscribers list set up, do go back and visit part one of this series and I’ll show you step by step how to get started. Note – you can make these videos larger using the full screen option bottom right, so you can follow through the on screen instructions more clearly. You can also increase the video resolution to give greater clarity and definition using the little gear icon that appears on the bottom menu once it starts playing.
How to add a Mail Chimp sign up box to your Facebook Page
Coming next – more about setting up Mail Chimp:
- Customising the sign up process to use your own words and encourage people to ‘double opt in’
- Offering a coupon code, discount, download or printable to new subscribers and getting it sent automatically
- Setting up Mail Chimp to automagically send your subscribers an email with your latest post, or a weekly round up of your recent content
- How to make a super swanky email sign up box like you see on the ‘big’ blogs – and maybe a bit like this one —>
Never miss an important tip or offer with the weekly posts round-up email and special subscriber only info and newsletters.
No spam promise, subscribers are special!

Thank you so much for pinning and promoting my posts. I try to make all of my info simple yet comprehensive at the same time. Some you can do in 10 minutes and some bigger projects too. The Mailing List series is certainly one you can build up over time. You’re gonna love the post on the custom opt-in boxes!
