How To Build A List Today Starting With A Capture Page?

What Is A Capture Page?

A capture page is a squeeze page designed to collect the email address of your visitor, through an opt-in form.

 

Technically speaking a squeeze page is also called a landing page.  A landing page is where someone lands from an advertisement or from links from your blog or website.

A squeeze page/capture page has one objective only; getting the visitor to willing opt-in by filling in their name and email address.

The goal of a squeeze page is used to build a list of names and emails addresses. A squeeze page is designed for that one purpose more so than any other type of webpage. And that is why we use squeeze pages.

Friday Finance Followers – Shameless Promotion Edition

As many of you know from some my previous posts, I have started a side job doing web design/programming. A big part of what I am trying to get into includes WordPress support. I have been at this for a while and I have learned a lot about WordPress and theme customization. Specifically I have done a lot of work now with both the Thesis theme and Atahualpa. This work is evident in sites like this one based on Thesis, and mobiled-tailz.com which is based on Atahualpa. Whether you are just getting started with a self hosted WordPress install, moving hosting providers, or moving from Blogger or WordPress.com I can help you get through it. Working with websites and WordPress has become more than a hobby to me, honestly I would much rather be doing that then writing articles.
