Adding iTunes Podcast subscribe link to Home page header

Dear Friends

Had a really helpful response to an earlier query so I am emboldened to follow up with a further query.

I would like to put a very simple sign up button/form on my website to link to iTunes feed - I really like the look of the one on the Rainmakers Showrunner site

The Showrunner

Just a very understated look

I am a newbie at all of this and really need detailed instructions to accomplish this.. I suspect I could use a WordPress Plugin or even one of my Convert Kit sign ups to look something similar.

So my question is - any step by step advice on how to get an itunes sign up box that looks like the Rainmaker one, and then instructions on how to install II have Power press, Blubry etc - probably overwhelming number of options - I just want the simplest... Can't do code, and want it looking nice a elegant like the Rainmaker one...

then when I get Stitcher (still waiting for them to approve my enrolment) I can make another one to match..

Many thanks

Jenny W

The design of the button will be based on your theme. But MailChimp along with plugins like Genesis eNews extended, or form code placed in a text widget or an HTML widget, etc., will allow you to add a sign up form. The JetPack plugin form emails you the sign up, but doesn't add it to a list automatically.

MailChimp, etc., will add the sign up to a list. You can use MailChimp code either from their website after you create an account. Or via a MailChimp plugin. Either way, you need a MailChimp account + list to which that information goes.

If you use JetPack, then you can manually add the email information to a list. MailChimp is better, because then people can "double opt-in". Once at signup, next, to confirm signup. This give you legitimacy as a "not spammer".

There are other Mail sign up sites available. MailChimp is just one product.

Here is one way to do this. https://www.sumydesigns.com/2015/08/19/how-to-use-genesis-enews-extended-for-your-mailchimp-e-mail-list/
