Design your way

Wednesday, March 18, 2015

The naked truth is that websites rely on advertising or on selling products to survive. We know people aren’t keen on seeing ads, but this is a necessary evil.

Unfortunately, people will routinely click away if they smell the slightest whiff of a website that is trying to sell a product or service. You need a way to capture an email list that you can market to; you also need to build a strong steady stream of traffic. So how do you do this?

Do you want to grab your visitor’s attention without using hard sell tactics? Are you wondering how you can get your one time visitors to convert to regular visitors or subscribers without losing your visitors due to annoying sell tactics?

Avoid Common Mistakes by Using the Right Opt-In Plugin

You can have awesome design and flawless content, but none of this will help you succeed unless you have the right opt-in strategy. Successful websites have already figured it out. Their design is amazing, their opt-in email strategy is smart and people want to sign up to learn more about what they have to offer. You want that too, right?

There is a new opt-in plugin available that will help you master this. Bloom will show you how to make opt-in attractive to your visitors and it will make it easier for you to keep track of what opt-in forms work and what don’t. Hence, you will get access to a detailed analytics dashboard that will show you in in real time how are your opt-in forms doing.

Bloom is different than any opt-in plugin you have ever seen. It has the features that will help you place your forms in the right place and at the right time and it will assist you in creating the perfect opt-in strategy for your website so that you can get more subscribers.

Bloom can be used with 12 e-mail marketing tools and you can choose from six email opt-in types. Your opt-in forms are fully customizable. Thus, depending on what your product or service is, you can personalize your forms to market a certain product or service and secure the right clients for your business.

How Does Bloom Work?

Bloom is compatible with marketing tools such as: MailChimp, Constant Contact, Mad Mini, AWeber, Campaign Monitor and Get Response, just to name a few; you will find the full list below:

All you need to do is integrate Bloom to you email marketing software and you are good to go. You can then go to the plug-in’s dashboard and start building your opt-in form. You will get six different email opt-in forms to choose from: Pop-up, Fly-in, Widget, Locked in and Below Post. These will give you the liberty to place your opt-in form virtually anywhere you want.

Bloom also gives you the ability to choose the trigger of your opt-in form. This can be the classic time trigger (seconds or minutes after a person entered a website), the reading trigger (after a visitor has reached the end of page), the inaction trigger (the opt-in will appear after a certain period of inactivity) or the unlock content trigger (visitors will be required to leave their e-mail address before they can start reading the content).

Finally, you can take Bloom’s pre-made opt-in forms and customize everything from CSS, titles, background image, image positioning, borders, body copy and styling. No other product will offer you that kind of flexibility.

Not certain which form will work for you best? Don’t worry. Bloom allows you to do A/B tests and optimize your opt-in forms. Therefore, you can easily do multiple tests, analyze the results in your dashboard, then pick what best for you.

Although you should not have any problems with installing and using Bloom, Elegant Themes posted a clear and comprehensive documentation as well as videos to walk you through.

Start using Bloom and get that email marketing list of yours up and running. The sooner you begin, the faster you will have prospective clients to talk to or subscribers that will share your articles.
