Add CSS3 & HTML5 Email Subscription Widget To Blogger Blog

ads space

After a long we are back again with a beautiful subscription box, If you aren’t building a email subscription widget, you’re missing significant opportunities to capture leads, build community, and create a sustainable way to communicate with those who are interested in what you have to say (and/or sell). Your subscriber is like diamond and it’s a resource you must develop, nurture and grow. It doesn’t matter what type of business or nonprofit work you are in or how big or small you are. You need to build your email subscription. But simply putting a newsletter sign-up form on your site isn’t the most effective thing you can do.  It’s also about how you place it on your site, what tactics you use to drive subscribers and it’s a LOT about content… what you share and how you communicate with your email subscription list so that you provide them value. So today we sharing with you a subscription widget with elegant design we have used image for background and also use HTML5 required attribute and some eye caching CSS3 effects we hope you may like it.

What our subscription widget is going to look like. See image below.

Little brief about HTML5

We will use HTML5's new required tag. Right now, different browsers will do different things when a form using HTML5 elements is submitted. When the form is submitted, most browsers will prevent the form from being submitted and will display a "hint" to the user, marking the first field that is required and has no value.

HTML5 validation works according to the type attribute that is set within the form fields. For years HTML only supported a handful of type attributes, such as type="text"  but with HTML5 there are a over a dozen new input types including email and url which we are going to use in our form.
