What do you think about using Weebly free site for Aweber opt in form?

weebly is great really,love the friendliness

Hi Chrisuchi,

But Weebly allowed to host for free 1 page opt in that after the client insert his email he is transferred to the affiliate link?

thanks.

Not to sure about the legal side of things my friend,But i do not think this will be a very effective way to make sales.

It is not a good idea to send prospects straight to a sales page without at least providing something of value in return.Give them a reason to buy through your affiliate link,don't just demand and expect it.People don't like being sold to,they need warmed up by providing free good quality information,serve them well don't treat them like a peace of meat and they will act accordingly.

It is very rare that a cold customer suddenly becomes very hot and in to a buying state in the blink of an eye.People are more skeptical and savvy these days,WHY do you want there e-mail? Just to sell them? Give me your email and then buy this thank you very much? You are jumping the gun way to far here.People will not just give you their email without something of great value in return and why should they?

Use paid hosting,look and act in a Professional manner,give away your best content and expect nothing in return,give real world value to folks!Build up trust and rapport with them before you even think of selling to them.

Will you be forwarding straight from weebly?

In paragraph 7 of weebly rules:7. CONTENT AND CONDUCT RULES AND OBLIGATIONS

You agree that you will not:


use the Service as a forwarding service to another website.

Not to sure iff this helps,perhaps a good read of their rules to be sure.Iff you are using weebly to host your squeeze page then taking people to the affiliate link through aweber then this must be allowed? as you are not using them to forward to another website only to host the opt-in page.

I'm also not sure if that rule mean that it's allowed or not.

on one side: its not redirect, there is a landing on Weebly and filling a form and then linking to the affiliate site

on second hand: it's not really some useful contact, it's just a form to fill (and maybe a little review page) and then linking to the affiliate site.

there is anyway to know for sure if it's allowed or not? someone here doin' it maybe?

Thanks.

Not a good idea. Want to build a list than better to have your own website.

Make a simple HTML page with the opt-in form and host it in the public folder of your Dropbox account. I've done that before in the past.

I have a few of my sites including my signature sites on weebly. Love their service.

Hi,

Well, it's definately legal to do that.

If you do decide to go with Weebly, you
may want to consider upgrading to Pro.
That way, you can remove the "Weebly"
branding on your page and remove footer
links.

You should be able to drop the HTML or
Java script code (from Aweber) into the
Weebly HTML widget seamlessly.

It's really not as hard as one may think.

The "free" service of Weebly will suffice, also.
I've never experienced any down times,
nor any other technical issues. One
last thing...

As you're editing your Weebly page be
sure to look at the Settings. Here
you'll be able to include analytics code
so that you can track your referring
traffic. Weebly is one brilliant resource.

But, yes...definately legal.
Good luck in your endeavours.
