Why use a Two Step Opt-In instead of the traditional One Step Opt-In Form?
A Two Step Optin can improve the rate of opt-ins by using an opt-in popup.
The Two Step OptIn launches an Opt-In Form popup after your website visitor clicks a Call to Action button to gain access to the promised value.
The Two Step OptIn has been shown to improve the rate of opt-ins because of the Foot-In-The-Door Phenomenon, a psychological event in which people are more likely to commit to a larger action when first asked to commit to a smaller action.
In this case, the user commits to clicking the Call to Action button before committing to filling out the Opt-In Form.
How to Create a Two Step Optin
Step 1. Create and Customize your Two Step Optin Popup
- Open the Website tab from the Dashboard.
- Click Pages.
- Select the page you wish to customize or create a new page.
- Click Customize to open the template editor.
- In the sidebar, scroll to the bottom and click Two Step Optin.
- Select Show Popup.
- Customize your Two Step Optin Popup appearance, and click Save:
Step 2. Create a Call to Action button to trigger the Two-Step Opt-in popup
To enable your Two-Step Optin, set up a button or Call to Action to open the Two-Step Optin when clicked.
Keep in mind, although you can create multiple Call to Action buttons in one page to trigger your Two-Step Optin, you can only create and customize one Two-Step Optin on a single landing page.
- In the Template Editor, select or create a Call to Action (CTA) Section to trigger the Two-Step Optin.
- In the button or CTA, click CTA or Button Action.
- Then select Open two step optin popup as the action.
- Click Save to keep your changes:
