The University of Alberta had a blog in which daily news about the university events were posted. Their subscription growth was pretty normal, around 400 subscribers by November, 2012. The number of subscriber were still not impressive keeping in view the total strength of the campus students, academia and administration. The usual subscription tactics were being used with a CTA on every important point of the web page.
Instead of using this tool for poll, they customized it and encouraged people to sign up to UOA blog.
Now, people have literally started subscribing through the Qualaroo forms. Not only this worked -but it worked great. This form increases their blog subscription rate from 1-2/day to a respectable 10-15/day.
