Increasing Your Plugin Conversions
Increase Conversions for SFI and Your Plugin Profit Site Newsletter Signups
Today I want to give away a strategy that I am using to increase my SFI signups and also increase the % of newsletter subscribers that actually confirm their subscription.
It turns out that I can kill two birds with one stone - so to speak - by using a well laid out Getresponse newsletter confirmation page.
Here’s mine below:

Feel free to use my ‘thank you’ page as a template for your own page. If you like you can get a branded copy of my Home Business Guide to offer to your own prospects from the link below:
Brand My Home Business Guide with Your Own Plugin Links
The thankyou page is the page that my subscribers see on subscribing to my newsletter. This url should go into your Getresponse subscriber form. Click here to see where you need to edit your form. This form can be found in your Pips index.html file.
Another place you can promote your offers is on your Getresponse confirmation page. If your subscribers must click a confirmation link to get your newsletter, as mine do, then this is the page they will see:
http://www.malkeenan.com/thankyou2.html
Click here for a screenshot showing where you add your ‘thankyou2.html’ page link in your Getresponse control panel. From within your getresponse account go to Campaigns - Campaign Settings - Click the ‘Subscribers’ tab.
The thankyou page is also used to encourage your prospects to confirm their subscription. I use double optins for my newsletter so the prospects need to click a link in the email to actually receive my newsletter.
You will see on this page that I also put a link to my SFI free signup. I have found that this is a much more effective way to get sfi signups than sending visitors straight to my sfi links from my webpages.
Think about it! Your visitor has already taken action by subscribing to your newsletter, so they are more susceptible to looking at your offers.
This works much on the same principle as ‘One Time Offers’ where internet marketers offer another product immediately after their customer has already purchased. The coversions on OTOs is amazing 30%, 40%, sometimes higher.
You can also put your pips affiliate link on the thankyou page. I go for the free option as I have a much better chance of getting them on board. I can then convert them to the Plugin Profits system later.
You should diversify ways of getting prospects into your contact list whether through sfi, your newsletter or other avenues. That way you have a chance of getting them to signup for your other programs like PIPS at a later date.
It is important to know that there are many little tweaks you can make to any site or sales process to increase signups and overall profits.
The above is just one example. I hope it has helped or at least got you thinking for yourself

Look at the second paragraph on this page. It’s two (2) birds, idiot, not to.

Thanks Wayne
I will assume you called me an idiot because you don’t feel too good yourself.

Mal, thank you for a very useful piece of information. Normally if you use the opt-in email message the limit is something like 150 characters, certainly not enough to convey a personal and effective means of convincing potential subscribers to add the newsletter to their in-box. Once again, many thanks, I’ll see what happens and let you know at the Warriors forum.
Cheers,
Pete The PIPSter
