India Travel Blog Mailing List

The India Travel Blog mailing list was defunct for a few months due to some technical issues. New subscribers were unable to sign up, and mails could not be sent to existing subscribers. The problem is now fixed.

You can now sign up to India Travel Blog Newsletter by keying in your email-address in the text-box at the right-side column.

India Travel Blog Newsletter is a sporadically dispatched email, informing the subscribers of the content updated on the blog for last one month. It is sent out once a month but can get less frequent at times. The latest newsletter was dispatched today. Here is a copy of the email.

Hello!

It has been a long time since there was a dispatch of India Travel Blog Newsletter. Some technical glitches in the mailing software had prevented sending emails or new sign ups to the newsletter. The problem is now fixed after many months, and it is now back to regular updates.

As it used to be earlier, India Travel Blog Newsletter will continue to be approximately once in a month dispatch. Feel free to forward this to your friends, or ask them to sign up from the home page – http://travel.paintedstork.com/blog
