Single opt-in Prior to entering a ecommerce site.. good idea?

6 replies
Hi,
I want to capture all the visitors of a new ecommerce site. Would it be a good idea to setup a single opt in page prior to entering?

    You can try single opt-in and sending one time discount offer with an unsubscribe link after couple of days.

    I used this method for a while. Though I didn't get good results, you can try, may be your results might be different.

    Good idea, I'll try that. I'm thinking about possibly just having a giveaway of a free tshirt or something they can wear. I'm in an outdoor niche so if they are wearing a tshirt with my logo and website it can bhe good marketing.. tshirts can be made for 2bucks so i might do that if they subscribe to the list.

    You want people to give you their email address before they even look at your site?


    Incredibly terrible idea.

    One of the worst I've ever heard.

    First of get the visitors and then capture them imaging how you would feel to have to opt in. For sure you would exit and so will 99.9% of your potenetial visitirs

    try using an exit splash,

    this way you can gt the visitor to the site, then offer them something cool of value when they hit the back button.

    or you could also make a video of you centered at the top offering what ever you plan to offer them, so they will have the option to view and opt in or just browse the store

    I always exit a site if I'm presented with a big old opt-in form before I even read the site.
