Hey Rick
Thanks for the thoughts! I wasn’t planning to gate it completely, I was thinking more that it has the opt in and a link that says “no thanks, take me to the free content” which then takes you through to the blog as normal.
I personally prefer that and the a number of places you can opt in on the blog without popping stuff up over the top while someone is reading. It’s an approach I’ve seen on a number of sites and I always respect the person for giving me those choices.
Cheers
Kevin
