Ok I just launched my new website but I am just trying to get a few things in place.
I am wondering about when a person subscribes if I should just have it set so aweber will display their page that says they need to confirm or if I should make it redirect to a post on my blog instead. I thought that this method might be better since I can customize my message and tell them whatever I want.. at the same time I like the aweber form because a whole page comes up and either with a video or an audio that tells them they need to confirm the subscription.
What do you think?
I am thinking both are good but that the blog post method would be better.
I will have to hide the blog post from categories and home page but luckily I got a plug-in for this.
Also I see many people using light box pop-ups and slide-up footers for optins.. what method do you like better?
I do not want the pop-ups to annoy my viewers so I may go with the footer.
I know you can set options so that they will only pop-up every so many days
but if a user clears their cookies the pop-up will show again.
