Building Squeeze Page (Part 2)

In today “Learn Build Squeeze Page: Beginner’s Guide to Online Success“, we will be touching on setting up auto responder campaign, and adding the auto-responder into the squeeze page. Let’s begin with setting up your auto-responder campaign for your squeeze page.

First you will need to login to your auto-responder, be it GetResponse, Aweber or any other auto-responder. I will use the example of GetResponse for this series.

Second is to set up a campaign for capturing subscribers:

First click ‘Create Campaign’ (orange button on the middle of page)

Next you will be brought to ‘Create a New Campaign’ page

i)             Campaign Name: This is where your email messages will appear to be coming from. For best results use your name or you company’s name. If no “Reply-To” email address is set below, then your subscribers’ replies will hit the e-mail address you enter above. Don’t use any campaign e-mail addresses or your account will not work.

ii)           E-mail Address: This will be shown on the email you send out to your subscribers. You can use noreply@YourDomainName.com, it leaves an impression to your subscribers not to email to you.

iii)          E-mail Address (Reply-To field): When a recipient of your message replies to it, this is the email address where their reply will be sent to. Make sure it’s a valid email address, and that it’s a mailbox that you actually check. If the “Reply-To” address is the same as the “From” address, you do not need to enter the same data twice. Simply leave the “Reply-To” box empty. Important:  Do not use a free email like Gmail or Yahoo mail for your “Reply-To”, it will not impress your subscribers.

iv)          Title: The title field is where you can enter a brief description of your campaign. It will be shown on the unsubscribe page, where your subscribers decide if they want to unsubscribe from your campaign or not.

v)           Description: You can enter a more detailed description of your campaign in the description field above. It will be shown on the unsubscribe page.

After you have entered the fields, click ‘Create a new campaign’. You will be brought to a new page. See below.

Click on ‘Click here’ to personalize your confirmation message to your subscribers. Then you will be brought to another new page shown below.

You will need to choose the ‘Subject’. There are a number of different subjects to choose from, just choose one that you find suitable. Next is to ‘Enter your message’; this is the area you can add in your own message to your subscribers. Lastly is to change the signature to your name.  Then you must click ‘Save’.

Next is to enter your address for your auto responder campaign. This is a requirement that you must enter your address. If this is not done, you will not be able to send email to your subscribers. See picture below. And click ‘Save’ after you are done.

The next thing you must do is to make sure you choose Single Opt In for your campaign. Choose ‘Subscribers’, and stroll to ‘Opt In Setting’, see picture below.

Uncheck both ‘Email subscriptions’ and ‘Web subscription’ for single opt in. If you want to set a double opt in for your campaign, leave the setting checked. Remember to click ‘Save’. As for the ‘Confirmation page URL’, you can put in the Thank you page URL or the URL of your affiliate product or your product URL or leave it blank.

Now that you are done for the setting up, we will go straight to the getting the code for your auto-responder campaign. Put your cursor on the ‘Subscribers’, choose ‘Build Subscribers List’, click ‘Capture Subscribers’ and a new page will appear. See picture below.

You will need to check ‘HTML Form’ and choose the campaign name. If this is your first campaign, you will not need to choose. Click ‘Start Capturing’ after you are done. You will be brought to a new page.

On the ‘Confirmation URL’ you can enter your affiliate product link here. The best is to use a thank you page, I will be torching on the building ‘Thank You Page’ in other post. Next is to check ‘No thanks’. Finally is to click ‘Next Step’ after you are done.

On the new page, there is a new html code in a box, that will be the html code for your opt in form. Click ‘Select All’, and right click to copy the selected code. See picture below.

After you have copied the codes, open your squeeze page file in Komposer. Compose words on the right small table in your squeeze page as shown on the picture below.

Next is to click ‘Source’ button on the bottom left of Kompozer. You will be brought to a page that has HTML codes you do not understand. It is okay, just follow my instruction.

Remember you type in some words on the right small table? You will need to find ‘Put code here’. See picture below.

You will now paste the selected auto responder code into the selected ‘Paste code here’. After you are done with the pasting, choose ‘Normal’ on the bottom left, here you will see that a form has been created. See picture below.

Now you will need to save your squeeze page file after you are done. Today’s post has been a long one, so tomorrow we will be talking about making your squeeze page and changing the auto-responder form to look presentable.
