These blogging pros deliver the best email newsletters to keep you updated with the latest trends in content, social media, apps, WordPress, and SEO.
There are not many bloggers using email newsletters in their marketing these days.
Most of the subscriptions we accept develop into a series of sales campaigns.
If you have been blogging for a while, you no doubt have an inbox full of them and may even be running some of these campaigns yourself.
There are exceptional bloggers, however, that write email newsletters in addition to their blogs.
Sometimes they do send out campaigns, but these pros deliver a lot of added value by sharing their knowledge and experience regularly.
You will benefit from the below-mentioned email newsletter subscriptions no matter your niche because they are written by expert bloggers for bloggers.
4 Email Newsletters That Will Make Your Blog Better
Amy Lynn Andrews – The USELETTER
Amy Lynn Andrews is located in Arlington, TX, and sends out her newsletters on Saturdays like clockwork. The lady is smart and organized.
Not only is Amy’s website grand, but her newsletter is too. If you are not already a subscriber, visit her blog, and sign up. She stays on top of the new trends in apps and social media without boring us to tears.
I like her “chips and salsa” style. She starts out her newsletter with a brief hello and an update on what she has been doing. Then shares what she has discovered in the way of apps and tools she is trying out.

Ruth Soukup – Elite Blog Academy
Ruth Soukup is located in Punta Gorda, Florida. She has a successful website Living Well Spending Less, as well as, Elite Blog Academy. Ruth found success through trial and error with her first website and then developed EBA.
Her emails are chock-full of useful and practical information. She offers a great amount of value for free. To get on her mailing list for blogging, sign up for the waiting list at Elite Blog Academy.
You will learn more than you might imagine just from her emails and you never need to join EBA if it is not the right fit for you. She promotes her training, but she does not believe in hard selling so you will never feel pressured.
Below is a sample of the EBA newsletter:

Hi Gina, thanks for your great selection of newsletters. I have heard of Pat Flynn before. I have signed up for receiving newsletters by Nick Loper from sidehustlenation and I really enjoy reading his emails. The mails provide value and information to me as the reader. I recently unsubscribed to an email list because this person just wanted to sell without giving any helpful insights at all. Also, I felt bombarded with emails sometimes twice a day.
Best regards from Anke
Hi Anke, I will check out sidehustlenation. Thanks for the tip and for your comment! ~Gina
Great tips here to keep in touch with your subscriber list. A weekly overview of your blog posts may spark some interest to a subscriber prompting them to revisit your site.
