How to Create an Opt-In Form for Your Website Using AWeber the Autoresponder

Create an Opt-In Form

Once logged in to Aweber, click the tab "Web Forms". Next, click the big green button in the middle of your screen "Create Web Form". You will have several options for a template. Take your time and pick one, than load the template. It will pop open in the window below. You can than edit your header and footer here. For example, you can edit the header and say "Sign up for your FREE Gift!!". You can also resize the form, which will let you expand it and make it bigger. The options here are endless, for example, by clicking on "Form Type" in the top right corner, you can select "Body" from the drop down menu and change the background color. Once you've made all the changes you'd like, click "Save Web Form" at the bottom. Than "Go to Step 2". Name the form something that pertains to your product or domain name. Eventually you may have more than one form, and proper names will save you some time. Also, you can use the basic version for both the "Thank You" and the" Already Subscribed" page, however if you have already created and uploaded a custom Thank You page then click the arrow for the drop down menu and select Custom Page. Enter in the URL address for the custom page. Save Web Form.

Insert Your Opt-In Form

Next, go to Step 3. Click "I Will Install My Form". Choose the "Raw HTML Version". Below will show you all the computer code that is your Opt-In Form. I recommend pasting this entire code onto a notepad, or word document. I'm assuming that you already have a webpage created on your Web Editor. If not, you will need to do this first. If you do not have a Web Editor, I recommend Kompozer, it's FREE to download, and easy to use. Open your webpage in Kompozer. Now, I'm going to show you a little trick I picked up from the Chris Farrell Membership Site; scroll down and click where you would like your Opt-In form to show up. Center your cursor, if you'd like, and type a bunch of x's (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx...). If you'd like your Opt-In to show up more than once, do this every place you want it to go. Then click on the "Source" tab at the bottom left (in Kompozer version 7). Scroll through the code and find your x's. Once located, go back to your pasted code and select all and copy (cntrl c). Go back to Kompozer, highlight your x's and paste your Opt-In code. Go back to normal view and Save. Click Browse to launch your page. The Browse option is one of the reasons I love Kompozer, it gives you a chance to see any changes you've made before you've actually uploaded it to your Web Host. Scroll down, and TADA! You should see your Opt-In on your page. Now you can start building your LIST!!!

I just started using this srwofate called socialblaster and it has been the best decision I have made in a long time. I see your marketing alot on youtube and wanted to tell you about a technique that automates marketing across 40 + social networks with multiple accounts, send scheduled text updates with links to 40 social networks on sites like tiwtter and many more. SEO along with social marketing is very powerful stuff.
