Fast Loading Email Subscription Widget for Blogger

Email subscription helps your readers to reach your blog when you provide new article or update your blog. Moreover, an easy email subscription box attracts your readers to subscribe your blog straightforwardly. So today, this post is about adding a fast loading email subscription widget to your blog and it might be helpful





Please note: This email subscription widget adjusts the dimension automatically according to the place where it belongs to. But it’s better to have at least 300px if you’re focusing on sidebar. To prove it, if you own a demo blog, try to add this widget in your blog’s sidebar as well as footer to see its automatic dimension.

And you can easily customize your blogger sidebar width if it’s below 300px via Customise. Access path: Blogger Dashboard » Template » Customize » Adjust widths » Right sidebar.

Add this Email Subscription Box to your Blog


  • Go to Blogger Dashboard » Layout
  • Click on Add a Gadget
  • Copy & paste the below code in it (leave the title column blank)
