Are You Seeing Double?

THE PROBLEM

Since the contretemps of late last summer when we lost access to our Google  Feedburner account for the blog, we have used a new subscriber service "Follow.it" to email out our blog post subscriptions.  

What we didn't realize is that, contrary to what their help desk indicated at the time, we would still have Google's subscription service sending out blog posts to your email.  

So, if you had previously subscribed through our Google service and subscribed to the new follow.it subscription service,  you may be receiving both notifications for every post we publish. Ugh, sorry about that.

THE SOLUTION

You can simply unsubscribe to either one of the services so you only receive one post in your email. At the bottom of each email you will see a link to use to unsubscribe:

For the original Google subscription, which comes with the subject heading: YSS Events, News & Info (with the sender "Youth Services Shout-Out: YSS Blog"), you will see this message at the bottom: "You are subscribed to email updates from Youth Services Shout-Out: YSS BlogTo stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now." Click that link and voila, that will delete this subscription.

For the follow.it subscription, which comes with the subject heading Today's YSS Blog Post (with the sender "follow.it"), click the "Unfollow" link at the top of the email next to the day's blog post title:

That should help you stop seeing double. Our apologies for this confusion...and hope this helps!
