How to Create a High Conversion Squeeze Page
for Building Your Opt-in List

For your text, all you need is a small paragraph or a few bullets that will stimulate enough interest and desire for what you are offering them. If they feel they can benefit in any way they will want to know more information and will subscribe to your list to get it.

Some of the most successful capture pages are not long and wordy but are small enough that the whole web page can fit inside of the browser window. This has been more effective for many marketers for the purpose of capturing people’s information quickly and effectively.

A squeeze page should limit the number of choices your prospective customer or subscriber can make. Not all capture pages need to do this but for the purpose of ensuring that your visitors first opt in, the squeeze page should stay close to the format mentioned above. This will give your potential subscribers two simple choices and reduce confusion and help prevent them from changing their mind.

One option that your visitor has is to opt-in and the other is to leave your website. If your copy is compelling and your message is clear, many of your visitors will choose to opt-in to your list instead of leaving your website.

One component of your site that can greatly effect your conversion rate is the words you have appear on your submit button. Instead of using the word submit or subscribe, you’ll find your conversion rate will rise if you use an action phrase that will express how your visitors will benefit if they click on the button.

You want to compel your visitors to click on the submit button and using words like subscribe or submit can turn people off.

Use an action phrase that is written in their point of view to persuade them on a personal level such as “Send my Free report ‘loose 30 pounds in 30 days!’” or “Free instant access now!” and so on. This is a valuable element to test and you will not want to overlook it. I would also suggest to observe what other marketers are using on their submit buttons to help you come up with your own ideas.

Now that you know how to create a high conversion squeeze page, make sure you implement these methods and do your own tests with fonts and colors used. That being said, make sure that basic web design principles are followed and that the web page is attractive to your eyes.

If you find your eyes are not following the text naturally or squint while reading, you may have to make some adjustments to your web page. Dark text on a light background is a good rule to start with without getting into too many details for the purpose of this article.

Most importantly, if you put to action the advice you received from this article, and actively promote your squeeze page, you will see an incredible increase in the number of opt-ins you receive to your list.
