Questions? We've got answers.

How do you use my email address?

We only use your email address to send you feeds that you have subscribed to, and nothing else. We at blogtrottr hate spam as much as you, and so we will never sell, share, rent, or in any way disclose your email address to anyone.


How often will I get updates?

Updates will be delivered as and when they happen.


Do you have a daily digest option?

Not right now, but we expect to have that available soon.


What if I don't know the exact feed URL?

Not to worry, we'll autodetect any available feeds from a website URL.


Why do I sometimes get the same email more than once?

Feed owners sometimes edit items after posting, and what you're seeing is a new email with the revised content.


Can I use a form on my site to let people easily follow my feeds using Blogtrottr?

Of course! Copy the code below, and replace http://yourfeed with your feed URL.

<form method='post' action='http://blogtrottr.com'> Your email: <input type='text' name='btr_email' /><br /> <input type='hidden' name='btr_url' value='http://yourfeed' /> <input type='submit' value='Follow this feed via email' /> </form>


I don't like forms. Can I use a button?

You certainly can. Help yourself to a button, copy the code below, and replace http://yourfeed with your feed URL.

<a href='http://blogtrottr.com/?subscribe=http://yourfeed' title='Get this feed delivered by email'> <img src='/images/icons/blogtrottr-16px.png' alt='Blogtrottr' /></a>

Do you have a bookmarklet that I can use to save time?

Yes. Add this Blogtrottr bookmarklet to your favourites (by right clicking and selecting 'Add to favourites' or dragging it to your favourites toolbar), and when you're on a page that you want to follow with Blogtrottr, just click the bookmarklet.


That's lovely, but just what is a bookmarklet?

A bookmarklet is a tiny program contained in a bookmark which can be saved and used the same way you use normal bookmarks.


Can I replace the email address prompt in the bookmarklet with my email address?

Sure thing, just replace email=prompt('Please%20enter%20your%20email%20address'); with email='myemail@example.com';
