    Any email / autoresponder provider you use will have a form you can put on a website.

    I know, iContact, 1ShoppingCart, Constant Contact, MailChimp all do.

    Plus some of them also have Wordpress plugins to make it even easier to insert and manage on your site.

      If you're looking for the less costly way to do it, MailChimp is free for the first 250 or 500 subscribers and they offer web forms that you can add as well as YourMailingListProvider.

      Just like Drez said, you can use any of them & add a subscribe form very easily with the help of a Wordpress plugin if adding HTML code seems a bit tough to you.

      In case you are looking for a real cheap alternative, then you can use Mailchimp FREE account to start with OR Gary's Listwire as well.

      Hope to have helped.

      All the best mate

    Remember to read mailchimps TOS very carefully as they do NOT allow affliate marketing any many other types of marketing popular on this forum.

      Another option is iContact who now offer an autoresponder
      account that's free for the first 500 subscribers:

      Email Marketing - iContact (no affil.)

      Once you've built your list up to 500+ you should be able
      to invest in their paid solution thereafter.

      You can also easily insert their web forms into WordPress.

      Dedicated to mutual success,

        Hi

        I have recently discovered the virtues of AWeber the first auto responder I have used. I was frankly scared that I couldn't possibly do it do it right. But I took action and set up a self training campaign and successfully created a Thank you page a sequence of initial emails, a download page, and Hey Presto I delivered an eBook to one of my own email addresses.

        It made me feel good.

        I am sure other autoresponders work well but now I am sold on AWeber.

        Now i can get only with the real thing without being worried about "Techie problems".

    I use Aweber and it works for me.

    If you use it right and build up a good quality list it will repay you many times over.

    I also always suggest using a bonus product to entice opt-ins. Seems the best solution for me anyway.

    Cheers,

    there are lots of plugins in wordpress that allow you to add an opt-in form.
    they require very minimal setup.

    There is no need to purchase services liek aweber these days imo, unless you are bringing in big numbers where it can be beneficial.
