How to Add a Subscribe Form to Your Sparkforge Blog

The Subscribe to Blog form turns blog readers into CRM contacts you can email later. Drop it on any blog page, tag the submissions, and trigger an RSS campaign so subscribers get new posts in their inbox.

What the Subscribe form does

• Drag-and-drop placement anywhere on a blog page.
• Custom styling for title, description, fonts, button text, and colors.
• Layout options: plain or with image.
• Automatic contact creation on every submission.
• Smart tagging (e.g., "Blog") so subscribers are easy to target later.

How to add the Subscribe form

Step 1: Open the blog site editor

1. Go to Sites.
2. Select your blog site.
3. Click Blog Builder → Site Editor.

Step 2: Drop in the Subscribe element

In the editor, drag the Subscribe form element onto your blog page.

Step 3: Customize the form

• Edit the title (e.g., "Subscribe to Our Blog").
• Add a description (e.g., "Get the latest posts in your inbox").
• Set button text (e.g., "Subscribe Now").
• Pick layout: plain or with image.
• Adjust fonts, colors, and spacing.

Step 4: Publish

Click Publish to make the page live. Visitors can now subscribe directly from your blog.

Step 5: Send blog updates by tag

Every new subscriber lands in CRM Contacts with the tag you set. Use that tag as the recipient list for an RSS email campaign.

Automate blog updates with RSS

1. Go to Email Campaigns.
2. Add the RSS Header and RSS Items elements to the email body.
3. When scheduling, choose RSS Schedule so the campaign pulls in your latest posts.
4. Under Recipients, choose Contacts from Tag → Blog.
5. Save the campaign.

New subscribers automatically receive your latest posts on the schedule you set.

Why this matters

• Lead capture built into the blog itself.
• Owned audience, not rented from a social platform.
• Hands-off campaigns via RSS scheduling.
• Segmentable via tags for targeted follow-up.
