# Users Versus Subscribers

 * [6 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/users-versus-subscribers-2/)
 * Right now: I have e-mail subscriptions for my blog through JetPack. I’ve been
   using this for years and it works great.
 * Next: I want to create a form so that people can contact me to ask for business
   through a form. I want people to be able to put in one or both of their e-mail
   and their phone number and send me a message about what they want to talk about.
   I would like to give people the option to click a box to additionally signup 
   for the blog.
 * What I’ve Done: I started creating a Jetpack form for this. I was reading how
   to auto-fill fields so I think I can do at least 95% of what I want to do (hopefully
   100%, but I’m still new to the Jetpack forms).
 * Future: I want to eventually provide extra content to e-mail subscribers. I was
   thinking of having hidden content that only subscribers (or users?) can access.
 * Questions:
    1. Should I convert all my Jetpack subscribers to WordPress Users
   with the Subscriber Role? 2. If I do this, is there a plugin that sends them 
   e-mail the way that Jetpack currently does? 3. Or, is there a way to maintain
   both lists and somehow integrate them? 4. Any other helpful advice on creating
   users versus keeping a subscriber list?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fusers-versus-subscribers-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@outonalims](https://wordpress.org/support/users/outonalims/), I’d responded
   here earlier:
    [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/subscription-options/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/subscription-options/)
 * It sounds here though like you might be using Jetpack subscriptions after all.
   Do you want to maybe mark one of these threads as resolved, then put your questions
   about this into a single thread, or are you exploring different options at this
   point?
