Quite a few of my thousands of Genea-Musings readers who received an email every day from Feedburner were sorely disappointed that it stopped working in July 2022. I never found a free service to do that task for thousands of people. I do not ask my readers for subscriptions, and decided I wouldn't pay hundreds of dollars a year to send an email that many of them would not read.
I read on Dick Eastman's genealogy newsletter last week about Blogtrottr.com so I decided to try it out. It works very well!!!
Here is the Blogtrotter home page:
I input the blog URL (https://www.geneamusings.com), my email address, and selected "Daily" for the email frequency. I clicked the orange "FeedMe" button and now receive an email at about 2 p.m. every day with the Genea-Musings blog posts since the last email on the day before. It works. It's fast. It costs nothing.
The email does have one drawback - it has advertising at the top of the page. Frankly, that doesn't bother me! Here are some screen shots from the email I received today:
