opt-in list on a blog?

[Honkytonk43]

I noticed a blog with an opt-in list and want to do copy it but don't know how. I'm still looking into an autoresponder..if anyone can shed some light on this I'd appreciate it

sorry but I've just had an after thought-- I actually don't have any skills to build the web page required to get anyone to opt-in. I'd purchase a domain and look like a moron because I don't know what the next step is.
I know I need to start building an opt-in list though
