There are 2 general approaches to this type of feature.
1. Use Feedburner’s “subscribe by email” feature. This free service of feedburner.com will allow visitors to your site to subscribe or unsubscribe from your blogs RSS feed by email. Instead of using a news readers your subscribers can get updates via email.
2. Maintain you own email signup database and send out your own updates. You can do this by using a newsletter plugin or php script on your site. When you make a new post you can then send out an email to everyone on the list letting them know about it.
Personally, I’d go for #1.

There are two kinds of RSS feeds…is there a difference between them? I picked one but then I ran into some trouble adding that special code into a widget (??), I don’t have any widgets, as far as I know, and I don’t know how to get them?!
