Q: Hi Nick, - If we still send normal email newsletter broadcasts for our blog updates and also use Followit to ...

alert users, can we customise how the content design look like how we customise html for email newsletters?

- If we hit subscriber limit but don't want to automatically be upgraded to pay the recurring fee. Do we have the option to keep the limit to e.g. 6000 subs?

A: Thanks for your question Aura!

For now the format is as shown as mentioned above, i.e. https://bit.ly/3487V5x (if you only want to send headlines) or https://bit.ly/2EEWrOf (for "full story view"). Of course, you can replace the follow.it logo with yours, and remove other brandings.

Other publishers also requested more layout option, so we'll look into those too, probably first allowing publishers to define the colors (but keeping the basic structure the same), and at some point allowing more tailoring options too.

Regarding hitting the 6,000 limit: we never block any follower from signing up to your feed. If you go over your limit, but haven't uploaded any credits to your account, you'll only get an email from us, politely asking you to take out your credit card :) At that point, you can either follow our suggestion (thank you), or unfollow some of your followers (to get under the limit again). If both options are no good we may also implement hard cuts at some point, but we're not really fond of them.

Note that we're also working on other features to help you to stay below your limits, e.g. the feature to automatically unfollow followers who haven't opened or clicked any of your emails in the last e.g. 6 months.

Does that answer your questions? If you have other questions, please shoot!
