How do I create a Landing Page with Optin Email?

You first need to create a Landing page and then implement one Auto Responder's (ex: Aweber) Opt-in form to your site.

Then you are ready to promote it. Its nice and easy.

You need an autoresponder first. If you choose GetResponse they allow you to create squeeze pages right from their site. Personally I use Optimize Press and Kajabi for everything. They both cost money though.

Thanks 'ochaim' While I do agree with you I still think it is worthwhile having at least a basic understanding of HTML and to some extent CSS so when things do go wrong with your site you can get into it and fix it without having to pay an expensive coder (like me) to get it all working again!

I recently helped someone out with their product launch and it was a site completely built in HTML. He had the design done by someone else but then he paid me a very large sum to get everything working for him including the funnel and split tests and in the end it cost him a fortune! Although he made that money back with the launch it would still have been a lot better for him if he had a very basic knowledge of HTML so he could have done the work himself. Or if he had built it in wordpress!

my experienced said that using optimize press is really help me to create landing page with optin easily. it much save your time.

easy.....get optimize press, buy a domian, setup wordpress, install optimize press, use a landing page template, open an aweber account, set up a webform (optin), post it on your landing page, use the visual editor for optimize press if you dont know html.

then publish -> --> optimize --> publish ---> mass advertise

Sometimes I've used html/css for squeeze pages, my latest one I use optimize press.

It's for clueless and clueful people alike.

I suppose there a couple of ways of doing it depending on your skill levels. Because I'm from a developing background, I could code an html page in a matter of minutes. This requires no database, and very basic html skills. Throw in a bit of CSS and Photoshop and you can have a nice lander knocked up in no time. This is easily modified to create further pages with nothing more than an FTP and Notepad. Maybe a Fiverr gig or two to create some graphics if you don't know Photoshop. But its relatively easy.

If you go the Wordpress / Optimize Press route, there is a learning curve needed for newbies to get their head around Wordpress, Databases, Plugins, Themes etc. I feel for simple landers that its just not needed, over engineered even, but I can see the attraction if you have experience of WP and like pressing buttons to see results.

I believe I could teach someone to code a basic html page quicker than teaching them Wordpress, then Optimize Press, then customizing it all. And you still need some basic coding knowledge to mess around with it if you want to make changes to the CSS, HTML outside of the Optimize Press install. So there is more involved going this route imo.

If you were to spend time as a newbie who's interested in owning their own websites, I would advise getting to grips with the basics of html and css, this will give you a grounding of how the web is put together. If you learn WP to start with, you will struggle to make changes because you haven't a clue what the code is that put your site together. Then your on here asking about html, and how do I change this and that. The Web Design forum on here is littered with requests by people asking about html, when a simple Google search would bring up plenty of resources to get you started.

Horses for courses tho..

google optimize press and use google analytic.
