Optin Crusher
I used to be a big fan of placing a hover (pop-up) ad on all of my sites. When that didn’t seem to be working so well any longer, I became a big fan of the slideup ad, but it took me a few tries to find one that I liked.
Optin Crusher (link to ) is a free WordPress plugin offered by Daniel Watrous. It’s different from other methods in that it doesn’t interrupt the user but still gets their attention, which decreases bounce and exit rates while increasing optin rates. Installation takes less than a minute and everything is configurable from within WordPress, no FTP, HTML or other knowledge needed.
Even though it’s a free plugin, Daniel offers a number of “how-to” videos to help you get it installed and customized for your site. He also includes detailed instructions for creating your own graphics for the footer form. Options include turning the form off for visitors who are already subscribed, remembering visitors who closed the form and not reloading it for them, and not loading the form on specific pages.
