It's been quite a while we have done any giveaway here on BloggingeHow. Lately I've got pretty positive feedback on the featured post section that I used previously that is a site wide section meant to increase your email capture rate at your blog.
If you're currently not using any form of a featured section above fold to promote your email newsletter, you're loosing out a lot of money on the table.
Why Featured Section Is Must?
See, you'd by now already know how crucial it is to capture emails on your blog/website. The post 6 Reasons to Get Started With Aweber - You'd Be Foolish Otherwise goes into detail as to why you need to start capturing emails if you're not already in some form.
So we have a consensus here that you MUST turn your blog visitors into subscribers and most importantly 'email subscribers' as you can maintain a long term relation with them and provide them value effectively.
There have been tons of email subscription widgets I switched at BloggingeHow, and if you're a regular reader, you'd notice the changes that take place. Testing is a key with what ever widget that you implement, so I would switch to another one if I realize it's not serving the purpose.
You can checkout the posts: The History of Templates for BloggingeHow (From Ugly to Being Proud) where you can notice the changes that took place in the templates and widgets.
Giveaway: Tested Featured Post Section of BloggingeHow.
The featured section you see below is great for few reasons:
1- Stunning design
The design is so perfect and professional that it would give your blog an aesthetic boost overall too.
2- Features Image of your ethical bribe.
That is any eBook cover, a course art, or it can be anything that you're giving away for free to encourage the visitors to subscribe.
3- Headline and Features section
You can add detailed features list and headline to your featured section as per your blog's niche.
4- Advanced 'Ask For It' strategy implemented.
This is that the widget hides the email subscription fields from the visitor as many would simply get turned down by have a feel that you're on a 'taking' side as oppose to the giving end.
So it incorporates a button that asks the user to click it to the download the free ethical bribe. Once the person would click the button, subscription fields would then fade out with some professional CSS implemented.
