My list building failure!!!

This is my first endeaver into building a list, so I thought I would just use a newsletter plug in on WordPress. Easy, right? So I was all excited, because I've been getting subscription emails and thinking everything is going great. Well, I went to compose my newsletter and I had NO confirmed subscribers. So I plugged in my email and signed up for my own newsletter. When I got the email to confirm it said bad URL!!!!

I didn't configure it correctly. I'm such an idiot! I didn't read the directions so now I lost all of those subscribers! I can't believe it! I corrected it now, but I'm still trying to tweak the direct page and the free report page, but I can't believe I didn't read all of the directions.

It goes to show that I shouldn't take things for granted. Since there wasn't a required field tag when I was configuring the page I didn't think I needed to add the URL, and then I was so confident that I had a great set up that I didn't even test it!!!

Well, I guess it knocked me off my pedestal! Lesson learned!

Just wanted to share in case any other newbies had the same issue. Although, I'm probably the only one!!!!
