Best wording for the email list sign up button

11 replies
Hi guys:

I write a blog with sex advice for men. It's actually pretty decent information, original, non cheesy, etc.

I want to make a newsletter sign up button, right under each blog post.

What wording do you like best for the confirmation button under where they enter their email address:

Make Me Into A Beast In The Bedroom

Make Me Into A Sexual Beast

Make Me A Beast In The Bedroom

I Want To Become A Sexual Beast

I Want to Become A Beast in the Bedroom

I, Too, Want to Become A Beast in the Bedroom

I Want to Become A Beast in the Bedroom, Too

Things along these lines

Which would you be most likely to click (if this was info you were interested in), or do you have any similar suggestions?

Thanks guys

    Without seeing the offer, predicting the most effective wording is a crap shoot. Pick eleven variations, assign them numbers between two and twelve, and roll the dice. Your chance of picking the "best" option is the same as anyone responding to this thread.

    My own opinion is that you may be trying to be too clever. One of the best I've used lately is a simple "Enter your email and click here to get [lead magnet]".

    If you use the two-step signup (where clicking the first button pops up the email form), edit the above to "Click here to get [whatever]."

    On a personal level, none of the options you gave really appealed to me. Then again, I've been happily married to the same woman for 35 years. So take it for what it's worth.

      Thanks man, good point. Should probably be worth testing.

      [B]Confirm/B]

      or

      Sign Me Up!

      I agree it's not for everyone, but for the one's who need it, it's very interesting

      This is the beginning of the email form:

      Join the 50,000+ men receiving MyBusinessName sex tips, articles,
      and news directly to their inbox.

      [ENTER EMAIL HERE]

      Confirm Button says: Make Me Into A Beast In The Bedroom

      or better just

      Yes, Sign Me Up! or Confirm... wonder what others think

      I just know I've seen some forms that have almost MADE me click on what they were offering when they were like (just an extreme example)

      Yes, I want to be amazing

      or

      No, I want to be doomed for the rest of my life

      Just as an extreme, example... sometimes they were for things I wasn't even interested in, and it almost pulled me in, so I can imagine even with a little bit of interest, it may be a strong pull.

        Yup... guess I'll just let the numbers do the talking... better than any assumptions anyway

        thanks!

    Agree with John, in the sense that it's tough to make a call without knowing the product etc...

    If you're undecided, you're best bet is to split test surely? Let the numbers do the talking dude!

    Get your copy here

    That kind of thing.

    The only answer can be found by split testing. People that have split tested 1,000's of options for various things over dozens of years will still be wrong in their early guesses and hunches all the time. I know I am. Sometimes I find the best converting thing is the last one I personally would have picked.

    In my opinion you should also split test without the word "beast" in it. Unless, of course, you are targeting people that are into bestiality and then I have no comment.

    Split testing is really the best way to find out.
    Even simple terms like:
    -I want in
    -Let's get started
    -Get instant access
    ....can really convert well.
    Hope this helps.

      WOW! Randall's line would work hands down.... Like the other posters repled, split testing might be your best bet. You really never know which one works best until you test. Test , test, test.

    "Make me a sexual beast right away!" is an ideal title in my opinion...short, sweet, and simple...
