You could host an existing mailing list management system such as phpList but this will require configuring the php script and setting up a mySql database for it to use.

Alternatively, you could use a mailing list service such as mailchimp which is free to use for small lists, and they will provide integration code to get a signup form on your site.

  • Thanks, so mailchip i just like also make an HTML letter to be sent ? i mean, how do people make an individual mail letter to be sent ? does one need to be making them and feed them in the mailchimp to be sent on a timely manner? – Samarey Feb 10 '14 at 04:08
  • I believe mailchip offer a range of templates or if you're confident with html email templates you could add your own. Then you can create a mailout using their system to enter in the content of your newsletter. For more info see http://mailchimp.com/resources/guides/getting-started-with-mailchimp/ :) – flauntster Feb 10 '14 at 04:12
