Why You Need a Contact Form on Your Blogger Site

A contact form lets your visitors easily reach you without exposing your email address. It helps:

Receive feedback, business inquiries, or support questions
Build trust and professionalism
Increase blog engagement
Protect your email from spam bots

Method 1: Use Blogger’s Built-In Contact Form Gadget

Steps:

1. Go to Blogger → Layout
2. Click on “Add a Gadget” where you want the form (e.g., sidebar or footer)
3. Choose “Contact Form”
4. Save and view your blog

Blogger’s built-in contact form includes:

• Name
• Email
• Message fields

Note: Messages go to your Gmail inbox linked with Blogger.

Method 2: Create a Custom Full-Page Contact Form Using HTML + CSS

This gives you a professional full-page look — ideal for business or portfolio blogs.

Step-by-Step:

1. Create a New Page

   • Go to Pages → New Page
   • Title: Contact Us

2. Switch to HTML View, then paste this code:

<h2>Contact Us</h2>
<form name="contact-form" method="post" action="https://formsubmit.co/your@email.com">
  <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your Name" required><br><br>
  <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Your Email" required><br><br>
  <textarea name="message" rows="5" placeholder="Your Message" required></textarea><br><br>
  <button type="submit">Send Message</button>
</form>

3. Customize Email Address
   Replace your@email.com with your real email.

4. Click Publish

 Done! You now have a stylish working contact form.

Optional CSS Styling (Add in Theme → Edit HTML before </head>)

<style>
form input, form textarea {
  width: 90%;
  padding: 10px;
  margin-bottom: 10px;
  border: 1px solid #ccc;
  font-size: 16px;

  background: #007bff;
