| Creating Pop Ups and Tips on Using Them
As I said before, it's a proven fact that the use of pop up windows is a highly effective marketing technique that produces great results.
Below, is an example of a popup window that you can use to gain new subscribers. It is set up with "tables" and will adjust to fit your new window. Copy and paste the following code into your HTML and edit as needed:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Claim Your FREE Gift</TITLE>

<BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff">
<CENTER>
<TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" ALIGN="Center">

server where you store your HTML documents.
Your next step will be to place the following script:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function GetCookie(name) {
var arg=name+"=";
var alen=arg.length;
var clen=document.cookie.length;
var i=0;
while (i<clen) {
var j=i+alen;
if (document.cookie.substring(i,j)==arg)
return "here";
i=document.cookie.indexOf(" ",i)+1;
if (i==0) break;
}
return null;
}
var visit=GetCookie("COOKIE1");
if (visit==null){
var expire=new Date();
window.name = "thiswin";
newwin=open("popup.htm", "dispwin",
"width=350,height=350,scrollbars=yes,menubar=no");
expire=new Date(expire.getTime()+7776000000);
document.cookie="COOKIE1=here; expires="+expire;
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>
Tips on Using Pop Ups
1) Make sure that you don't use more than one pop-window per page. You don't want to annoy your visitors!
2) Make sure you always provide your visitors with an easy way to close your pop up window.
3) Use a powerful headline that demands attention
4) Enlarge your headline's font size so it really stands out.
5) Include your offer's most important benefits within your headline
6) Use incentives to increase your offer's response rate.
7) Keep your message short and to the point
8) Ask your visitors to take action
If you're considering adding a pop-up window to your site, do so with caution. The last thing you want to do is drive your visitors away. However, if done correctly, pop-windows can be an extremely effective way of getting your visitor's attention.
