It sounds like you may be comparing the free WordPress.com blogging site to the Blogger site. As I understood this thread, the discussion was on moving to a WordPress.org installation on a paid host. With your own WordPress install, you can easily place any kind of opt-in form (such as from Aweber) on your sidebar using HTML in a text widget. You can also use plugin, such as WP-Opt-in one from the WordPress.org Plugin Directory.

i just wanted to drop a line and include something very important to this thread....

Wordpress does not allow you an opt in box. Blogger does. It is a matter of preference but every successful internet marketer will tell you the importance of having an opt in box with an autoresponder

Actually Wordpress.org (the one everyone here is talking about) is hosted on your own domain so you can in fact have an opt in box and use it as you wish. And you're right it's very important to have a mailing list.

After reading the updates to this thread, I found this link to a video I know very little about the subject, but this does seem to say you can have ab opt in.

Of course you can!

I have an opt-in box in the right sidebar of my blog:

...and at the bottom of each post (above the comments).

If you host your own blog you can do anything you like with it!

Wish I'd learn to proof read my posts! I really can spell!!!

You should be able to edit your own posts - do you see the edit button at the bottom right of each post, or no?

yes, Wordpress is installed on my host, BlueHost already. I just need to learn to use it!!

Thank you everyone for all of your help. I'll be back for more, I'm sure!!!
