Countdown timer plug-in

13 replies
Hey,

I'm going to test how much of a difference a countdown timer makes on trial offer conversion rates...

...So, could anybody please link me to a free/low-cost simple plug-in for WordPress that achieves just this?

Bearing in mind I'd like the plug-in to refresh back to the maximum time specified (say 5 minutes) every time a new prospect lands on the page...

Even better, the timer continues counting down even if a prospect who's already been on the page refreshes it (unique to every individual).

If anyone could direct me to such a plug-in, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your help.

Kindest regards,


Chris

    Alright, so you need something that does this?

    1. When someone joins the page, it starts at 5 minutes. When they refresh, it keeps going...

    2. However, if a different person joins it goes to 5 minutes for them?

    I think to install this timer plug in you should not pay heed about money rather than the quality.Cause the cheap plug in may have some limitations.

      I can't find anything. You will most likely have to get it custom coded.

    I'm aware of that tanyaa, I'm just enquiring whether or not someone has come across such a plug-in that doesn't cost an arm and a leg to purchase; just something simple.

      Go to odesk get a programmer from south asia, explain in detail what you want, and then put up a price your willing to pay. You definitely can get it for under $100.

    This is a great countdown timer and is very stylish, you might recognize it from several launches Javascript CountDown - little web things and best of all it's free.

    Hi Christian,

    Sounds like you've already found your solution but I just want to mention that I have a plugin that does what you're looking for but the timers are added to a pop-up box you can add your content to, which can appear pretty much anywhere on the page. It also has content locking abilities so the content can become available or disappear when the timer expires or can be accessed after a social share is done. However, content locking is not necessary just an added feature.

    There's a link to it in my signature if anyone is interested in checking it out. You can PM me for more info as well.

    John
