Dear Fellow Website Owner,
It seems like it gets tougher every year.
You know you need to build a mailing list, but enticing readers to sign up can seem like an impossible task. That upper right corner placement and a valuable offer simply don't work any more. Here's why:
Visitors have become so "ad blind" and their attention span is so short that if you don't grab them instantly with something new and different, they're likely to click away - often never to be seen again.
You need a better option, so like many marketers before you, you turn to...
Pop-Ups, Pop-Overs, and
Other "In Your Face" Options
Now, I'm not going to tell you that these aggressive tactics don't work. If you've tried them, then you know that a well-timed pop-up can increase your opt-in rate.
They can also annoy the pants off your audience, if you're not careful. The last thing you want to do is force your visitors to close a pop-up on every single page she visits. Yet that's just what some of these tools do.
Yuck!
And that's just for opt-ins. There are other legitimate reasons to use a pop-up as well, but none of the readily available plugins have the ability to:
- Politely direct a visitor to a sales page
- Notify a reader about a special offer or coupon code
- Let her know about your social media pages
All of those things, at one time or other, are equally important for growing your audience and your business, but the creators of pop-up plugins virtually ignore these and other uses, and focus solely on opt-in forms. Leaving you with only one option...
Installing Multiple Plugins to
Handle a Single Job
And if you've worked with WordPress for longer than a week or so, you know this is never a good idea. It can introduce a host of problems, such as:
- Site speed issues
- Javascript conflicts
- Security vulnerabilities
- Maintenance issues
And a host of other problems. Who needs that, when you're trying to run a business?
Wouldn't a better solution be a flexible plugin that can handle it all? Here's what you really need - an all-in-one plugin that...
- Grabs your visitors' attention - without being intrusive or annoying
- Allows you to use a variety of marketing tools
- Is flexible enough for use in many different situations
- Is customizable - because one-size-fits-all almost never does
Sound like a pipe dream? Not at all.
An Opt-In or Advertising Plugin that
Just Works - Simply, Affordably, and
Without Annoying Your Readers
What if there were a way to grab your readers' attention without annoyance and without getting in the way of your content? What if that plugin let you display your slide-up precisely when and where you wanted it, for maximum effect?
I think you'd agree that this plugin would be a valuable tool in your marketing toolbox, and that's just what I thought, too, when I discovered SlideUp.
With it, you'll finally be able to...
- Put your opt-in box out of the way - across the bottom of the screen - while still keeping it visible to visitors
- Use your own graphics and background colors
- Write your own call to action
- Use different slide-ups on the home page versus archive pages
- Change the slide-up timing, so you can capture their attention without distracting them from your content before they've begun to read
- Test offers, headlines, graphics, and colors easily - simply edit your slide-up
In short - everything you've wished for in an opt-in/advertising banner but could never find!
