There is a method of using pop ups that won't annoy your website guests and can actually benefit you in a variety of ways in the long run. Impossible, you say? No! If you implement a pop up correctly, your guests won't be annoyed at all. Let's face it: the majority of people who put pop ups on their sites go about it all the wrong way. Most of them are triggered upon entry to the website, when a visitor is trying to focus on what the site has to offer.
The visitor who has just entered your site is trying to see what you have to offer and does not want to be bothered with another window. Odds are, she'll close it without even glancing at what's being presented. This is the wrong way to use pop ups. Why would you want to bombard someone as soon as he sets foot in your front door? It's like coming home from a long day at work, walking in the front door and being confronted by the wife, the kids, and the dog, all vying for your attention. You wouldn't like it -- and this is exactly how your visitors feel when you pull the same stunt on them when entering your site. So if making a window pop up immediately upon entering your site is wrong, how do you make it right? The best way to use a pop up is upon exit. Translation: when your guest is ready to leave your site -- then, and only then -- is when your pop up box should appear. At this point, your message will be better received and not seen as obtrusive. You might compare it to someone coming over for a visit and on his way out the door you say, "Hey, don't forget about this. "It's a gentle reminder. So, how can you use this beneficial reminder? Here are the most popular: 1) To remind them to subscribe to your ezine 2) To offer a free download such as an e-book or some other free offer. 3) As a final sales pitch for your product or service 4) To offer a free course by autoresponder
And that's only one of the options you have when adding pop ups to your site. There are software programs you can download that will make them easy to configure, as well. An example of this would be PopUp Maker. They do offer a free demo and if you like it you can purchase it for a mere $20.00. There are also plenty of free online pop up generators you can use that let you design pop ups to any size and specification. Some of them are: Tip- Window Maker.
