Benefits of being an Allrecipes member/ Cost information
It will cost you nothing to browse our site, print recipes, maintain your own personal recipe box, or sign up for our
newsletters. You are free to use all of the recipes on Allrecipes and share your own recipes to be published on our site.
As an Allrecipes member you will be able to rate and review recipes, submit your own recipes for publication, submit your own
meal ideas, make your own favorite foods list and post recipe requests. You are also automatically set up with an online
recipe box where you can store both recipes from our site and your own private recipes, categorize recipes, add private notes
to recipes, rate and review recipes for everyone to read, create a personalized shopping list, and more!

Free Newsletters and Email Alerts
As a member of the Allrecipes Community, you can sign up for a variety of newsletters and email alerts. Click here to join the Allrecipes Community, then follow the prompts to set up your membership and select newsletters and/or email alerts you would like to receive (you can choose not to receive emails as well).
Email Alert Frequency
If you’ve signed up to receive daily or weekly email alerts when new recipes are published to the site, you might find that you don’t necessarily receive them every day or every week. This is because there may be a day or week where Allrecipes may not receive any new bread recipe submissions, for instance, or low-carb recipes. So, when choosing your frequency preferences, you can expect to get emails up to once a day, or up to once a week.

Registration problems
If you receive a message stating that an account already exists for the user name you entered, you need to choose another
name or make your name unique by adding numbers on to it. With more than two million members, we have many users with similar
names and food interests, so it is unavoidable that there will be overlap in user names. The user name has to be unique, but
the password is your choice. Please use only letters and numbers, as we do not allow symbol characters in our user names and
passwords.
