Tip #4: Customize Your Subscription Settings

October 8th, 2008 Maggie

Our fourth tip is all about you: specifically, how you can customize your subscriptions on DailyLit. Lots of you asked about this on our new Reader Survey for Free Books, so we hope this helps. (And if you’re a DailyLit reader who hasn’t taken the survey yet, please do! It will help us give you more free books, which makes everybody happy.)

You can customize the frequency, time, and length of your installments, and you can do so in three different places.

You can customize your subscription:
1. In the Subscribe Box on the book page when you sign up for a book.
2. On the Subscription Confirmation Page, which you see after you click on the link in the email confirming your subscription.
3. On the Manage Your Subscriptions page, which you can access via the “Manage Your Subscriptions” link in any email or by logging in.

In addition to the adjustable delivery time, there are three frequency options that are visible in a drop down menu (Weekdays, Every Day, and Monday, Wednesday and Friday). If you click on the word “Advanced,” you’ll see the ability to fully customize delivery frequency and the length of your installments: normal, longer (twice as long as a regular installment), and longest (4 times as long).

See? When we say that our books come to you on your schedule, we really mean it.

If you’ve been following our tips series, you’ve already learned some cool tricks to make DailyLit easier and more fun to use. (Out of the loop? Tsk-tsk.
