If you are blogging seriously or updating your website regularly then “Subscribe” option is a very important option for your blog. This option gives your reader the opportunity to read your posts regularly in an easy way. Because when one reader or visitor of your blog subscribe to your blog, he or she gets each an every post in the email inbox when you update one post
The default Subscribe widget which is with Jetpack in WordPress is not that attractive and does not give you a lot of option to customize the widget. If you search for stylish widget for “Subscribe” option, you will not be able to get one stylish widget for free. So, i tried to get one free widget which will be customizable also and at the same time gives my blog a professional look. After searching i have got one plugin for Subscriber widget which is “WordPress Multicolor Subscribe Widget“. Thanks to “Design Aeon” for creating this nice widget plugin.

Important Note:
************************************************************************************************
After adding the widget , in the field “Enter Your Feedburner ID” you need to check it carefully. Because it is by default “design aeon” which is not your ID. You need to edit it and in this place you need to give put your Feedburner ID. Otherwise if someone enters his or her email address, he or she will subscribe the blog “Design Aeon” not your blog.If you face any problem to set this then you can read my post “How to Enable Email Subscription of Your Blog?“
