Add form value to end of url - Jquery

I have a input field that has the id #formValueId 

<input id="formValueId" type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="email address" name="unsubemail">

I'm using this function here as well, 

function addURL(element) {
$(element).attr('href', function(){
    return this.href + 'unsubscribe-complete?q=direct_unsubscribe&fn=Public_DirectUnsubscribeForm&id=IDSTRING&' + 'unsubscribeEmail';
});
}

I also created a variable like this,

var unsubscribeEmail = $("#formValueId").val();

at the end of my addURL function for return this.href line I'm adding the variable to the end of it and it works great but the url isn't passing the val(); it's just putting the var name at the end. what am I doing wrong here?

+ 'unsubscribeEmail';

by using 'unsubscribeEmail' you make it just string so use unsubscribeEmail instead of 'unsubscribeEmail'

function addURL(element) {
$(element).attr('href', function(){
    return this.href + 'unsubscribe-complete?q=direct_unsubscribe&fn=Public_DirectUnsubscribeForm&id=IDSTRING&' + unsubscribeEmail;
});
}
