Pop up domination - an attractive honey trap

Wow, a pop up I actually like! That's a first. Like most people, I find pop ups about as appealing as a STOP sign. This one is definitely on the attractive side. And if you're an internet marketer and know anything about attraction marketing, it seems only appropriate to be sporting an attractive pop up.

You'll see mine is dark green. You have a choice of over a dozen colours.

As for setting it up, that's pretty easy. Once you've made the purchase and downloaded the zip file, you go to Add New Plugin on your blog. Click Upload. Takes a few minutes. Check your email or something. When it's done, click 'activate'.

Up comes a box asking you for your ID. I took a guess and pasted in the Invoice ID from off my Paypal r

Wow, a pop up I actually like! That’s a first. Like most people, I find pop ups about as appealing as a STOP sign.

As for setting it up, that's pretty easy. Once you've made the purchase and downloaded the zip file, you go to Add New Plugin on your blog. Click Upload. Takes a few minutes. Check your email or something. When it's done, click 'activate'.

Up comes a box asking you for your ID. I took a guess and pasted in the Invoice ID from off my Paypal receipt and that did the trick.

Now you're presented with the log of all your plugins. Find 'pop up domination' and click on 'Settings'. Choose a template and enter your main heading, values for name and email, etc.

For the webform code, you need to go to your autoresponder and set up a new list. Design a webform for that list. Actually, don't faff around with designs, because all you need to do is choose any old template, save it and go to the final step, which asks you how you want to publish your webform. If you're on aweber, you want to install your own code - and in this case, you want the raw html.

Paste all that html into the field for - guess what - html. Click update options and move on to the other features of the pop up, such as the bullets. By all means compare your creation with mine.

All in all it took me about 30 minutes tweaking this and that and then I was done.

Personally I like how it falls across my page. Neat how it leaves my video running on the sidebar. If you don't like the template I'm trying out, (see my site below) you have another 6 attractive layout to choose from.

And if you like it, you'll probably understand how it is that this plugin can double your optin rate. More optins: more money, long-term.

PS. The first time I got set up I ran into a small problem. The next day I went to my blog... no pop up! What the hell? Turns out I needed to clear my cookies. You can either do that by going to your options and clearing your history or go into the settings>schedule and click 'clear cookies. Sorted. The reason it wasn't showing up was that the scheduling was set so that the pop wouldn't show up again for another 7 days for anyone landing on my blog via my ip address. (Obviously regular visitors don't want to see it every time they visit).

Re: What Do you Prefer More - Time or Money - Hi there. I also prefer both time and money, but the question requests a choice of one, so I would select time. I currently have a contract that entails a 3 hour daily commute. This certainly provides cash inflow (the money addressed above), but it takes away from the time I have with my honey. So, I'm grateful for the job, and I'm grateful for my honey, but I know where I'd rather spend my time.
Re: I really feel great today because . . . . . - Hi GT, As I think I mentioned in another post, I think you would make a great councillor. I have a friend who is also a councillor but he is retired and what he has said to me on many occasions is that whilst he loves the job, he can only give it his best attention now that he is retired and would not have been able to do it when he had a full time job. I think it is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that as a councillor you are on an ego trip and it is only a few hours a week but the reality can be very different so I think you are wise to concentrate on your online business until a later date when you may have more time, regards, Mal.
Re: Usable Service? - Tristan, The numbers sound real good. If you can produce the results you state, I think it would be a very attractive service for nearly any organization. Cheers, Zac
Some attractive terms in advertisement - Some terms can make the advertisement look more attractive, like unlimited, free, life time guarantee, and more. These should be definitely incorporated to ensure fast sales.
Re: Paypal process $315 million in payments per day. - Alertpay is an attractive alternative for many Internet marketers. I have an Alertpay account, but don't use it much. Does anybody have any experience with Google Checkout?
