Your Unique Opt-In Methods?!?!

8 replies
Its seems the standard for opt-ins is to create a form box asking for peoples name and email address to receive your newsletter and maybe a free instant download.
I was just curious of some other unique and creative ideas people use to get people to opt-in and build that List!?!?

    I want to connect my opt-in/giveaway to my blog commenting system. So when you leave a comment, you have a checkbox where you can subscribe and get a free e-book or something. I haven't done it yet, but there's a thread around here that explains how to do it. I thought that had a very strong appeal by making it not seem subscribe-y.

    Fair warning: It's possible I'm arguing with you because I have nothing better to do.

      Yea, you could dazzle them with a little entertainment such as a memorable animated video instead of all that flying text.

      But where would you get one of those? :rolleyes::p
