Subscribe Link in an Email

Is there a way to make it super easy for someone to subscribe to my blog? I have leads that we're emailing, but not all of them are subscribed to the blog. What I want to do is, email them regarding my blog and then just have a link that says "Subscribe Now". If they were to click that link, do they have to fill out a form or can I just create a Flow step to make them a subscriber to my blog?

Thanks!

I'd suggest a very simple form with a checkbox on the landing page where the link in your email takes them. Technically, you can do a single click subscription, but I think having a form would be a better user experience

Seconding Dory, but from an anti-spam angle. The only safe way to do this is to require them to post a form -- even if that form is just one giant button and nothing else. Otherwise, you're inviting mail scanners to click your links for both "instant subscribe" and "instant unsubscribe."

Thanks, Dory!

I guess I will leave it as is, with a form.
