People are fucking weird, dude. I used to be a professional blogger. I never put any pop-ups or subscription bullshit on my website because I am really opposed to that shit, even though “the money is in the list”. As an experiment one time I put a sign up on the homepage temporarily. I didn’t offer anything. I didn’t have any snazzy sales lingo. It just said “Sign up to be notified when new posts are published”. I got hundreds of sign-ups per day from real people. I guess in this case it made a little sense, since they were quality articles written by a human who was passionate about the subject, but still! Stop giving your email address to everyone, ya flipping weirdos!
