Inside this video, I will talk about how I managed to double my optin rate using a really clever piece of technology. So I will do a quick review of a very cool piece of technology that you can install on your WordPress blog that will help you to double your optin rate if you do this right.

Before I get into that, I want to mention something really cool. I want to give you access—free access to some premium videos inside one of my membership sites. And I will explain to you at the end how you can get free access to these videos. There are seven of them in total so stay put because I want to explain to you how you can get free access to those seven videos.

But let me talk about this really cool technology that I’m using to help me double my optin rate. The day that I started using this type of technology my optin rates increased by 200%. So that’s double.

Now, the particular technology that I want to explain to you is called pop-up domination from Michael Dunlop. He’s an amazing fellow who managed to get this right in my view. This is a technology that is used by many, many internet marketers; some very famous people-people like Ryan Deiss, Yaro Starak and even Joel Comm, David Risley, Ryan Lee and Jack Johnson. All these big name marketers and bloggers are using this technology-this plugin to help them increase their optin rates.

So it’s really taken off. It got a lot of authority, a lot of credibility in the market and I want to do this interview on it. There are pros and cons to this plugin and I want to make sure that you know all of these things.

So without further ado, let’s jump into the actual review. What are the pros? First of all, it is super easy to install and really is a joy to install this plugin. All you have to do is upload the plugin files to your website and go hit and activate. It’s really that easy. It takes a few minutes—as straight forward as you can get.

The next real pro that I love about this plugin is that it looks really, really good. If you’ve seen the pop up box on my blog at Gideonshalwick.com, or any of my other blogs, you’ll know what I’m talking about. It’s just looks professional, crystal clear, and the graphics are good. It just looks beautiful. That’s one of Michael’s key strengths. He knows how to make stuff beautiful and functional at the same time.

The next thing is that they are really, really effective. These pop-up domination boxes—they seem to bypass the filters of websites and they seem to come up on most browsers. That is a fantastic benefit which of course helps you increase your optin rate tremendously. That is really, really cool.

You can set a timer on the actual pop-up which is fantastic because that means you can set whether it should come up immediately when people visit your website or maybe set it to 3 seconds after they visit your website. So it gives you that flexibility.

You can also set how often it actually comes up on your website. So for example, I’ve got mine set to once every 7 days. And there’s a reason behind that and sometimes people visit your website. I may not optin the first time around, but when they see your optin the second time, seven days later, that may help them to optin, actually, for your newsletter. There’s method to the madness there, but it seems to work.

So seven days-but you can set it to whatever you want. You can set it to only work or to show it once to people who visit your website.

The other thing that’s really cool about is that it’s really easy to upload your own 3D graphics for say your eBook, or DVD or whatever else you want to give away as part of your optin box. All you have to do is add a link to the graphic, enter it into the admin area for the plugin and you’re ready to rock—really, really easy to use.

The other thing that I love about is that it’s really easy to add bullet points to the optin form and they just once again look really great. All you have to do is type them in and pop-up domination does the rest for you. You’ve seen what mine looks like so you know that it looks really, really good.

The other cool thing is that it comes with a range of different templates so you can actually choose the way that you want it to look. The time when I used it, there were about four. And I think Michael has just introduced three more. So I think there are about seven or eight templates to choose from.

So you’re not stuck with just one template. You have some flexibility there with how it looks. On top of that, you can also choose all the different colors for each of the templates and so not only you do get different templates, but you can design it so that it gets fit in the rest of your website design. That is very, very cool.

It integrates with most autoresponders. If not all of them, AWeber, Mail Chimp, Get Response and a bunch of other. I really don’t think that will be an issue unless you’ve got some really, really awkward and weird autoresponder system set-up.

And the final thing that I want to say about that is that you can decide on which pages the actual pop-up appears. That’s pretty powerful. At the moment, I just select mine to show up at all pages. But if you have the preference to only show up on certain pages, that setting is available too.

So all up there-some really, really good features inside pop-up domination that I really like. I mean I just love it and it’s giving me tremendous results. I’m getting about over 200 optins a day now for my combined list and pop-up domination is a huge part of that.

But it does come with some cons as well. So let me quickly go through those as well so that you’ll see this is an honest review.

Sometimes when my pop-up domination box loads, there’s still seems to be a conflict with some of the java script elements on my website-with some of the graphics, sometimes with videos. But I believe that is something that Michael and the team are working on. It’s not really an issue for maybe .1% of the cases. In my case, because I have a very special design, there’s a slight conflict there. But as I said, 99.9% of the time, you will be fine. So there couldn’t be any issues there for you.

I found that it loads a little bit slow. And because of that, I think it waits for your whole website to load first before the actual box can load. Because of that, people can’t click on the X—the cross button, to get rid of it. And that can be a little bit annoying.

But what I found is that there is a way around it. Instead of letting the pop-up box shows up immediately, you just set it to show up 3 seconds later or 5 seconds, basically, waiting for your website to load first before the pop-up box loads. That way the actual pop-up box loads a lot faster and people can click on it and get rid of it if they want to.

At the moment, I haven’t seen any automatic updates for the plugin which is a little bit annoying, nowadays, for WordPress 3 or even earlier versions which you can automatically click on the link inside your WordPress’ admin area and it updates it. Of course, this is a paid plugin so maybe that’s the reason why they don’t have the automatic thing going it. But perhaps there is something that they’ll build in the future. Michael, if you’re watching this, that will be an awesome feature to use — to have inside the software.

The other thing that I talked to Michael about is that it only has 4 bullet points—maximum of 4 bullet points that you can use with the software. I would have liked to see at least 5 so that I have a choice to use, either 3 or 5 bullet points. That’s just my own personal preference. From the copywriting world, they liked to go in 3s or 5s-bullet points or 7s, uneven numbers. Then ask me, why? That’s what they seem to recommend. But Michael and his team recons that 4 is the optimal number for bullet points. So it depends on your point of view there.

But those really are the only things that I could find wrong with pop-up domination. So it’s not perfect but I mean which software is. All software has bugs and problems-even Macintosh software. But you know, it’s a great piece of software. A lot of really amazing people are using it. In this industry, it has a lot of credibility. Michael tells me that it only has a 1% refund rate which is incredibly low. I mean, normally, it’s like between 10 and 30, and 50 percent even for these kinds of products online. And they only have a1% right about there refund rate which is just incredibly low.

So people love it. They don’t want to refund their money because they love it. And I’m on the same box. I don’t want to refund it because I love it. I just so love it  and I even recommend it. Even if it didn’t have an affiliate program, I would still recommend this plugin because it does a fantastic job.

So you can gather that this plugin is not for free. It does sell for something. For the price that you pay for this,  I think you’re getting  amazing value. I really recommend that you actually get this plugin, install it, try it out at least—it does have a money back guarantee. But check it out and see the difference that it makes on your website—really, really powerful.

Let me quickly talk about these seven videos that you can get access to that I’ve created that will help you to increase your optin rates even further. I will just quickly run through them.

First, I will talk about the best kind of free resource to give away. The 2^nd thing is how to design your optin box properly. The third thing is your optin box placement. The 4^th thing is how to build instant rapport on your website so that more people optin to your newsletter list. The 5^th thing is the copywriting tips for your optin box specifically. There are some really key things there. The 6^th video is about the alternative place to send your traffic to help increase your optin rate. And the 7^th video is one secret thing that you must tell people about before they optin to help them stay on your list for as long as possible.

So those are the 7 videos that you can get accessed to. If you want to get accessed to those videos as my bonus, you have to order through my link which is right below this video. It’s an affiliate link, of course. Click on the link just below this video. And once you’ve made the purchase, send me your receipt to support@becomeablogger.com and we’ll make sure that you can get accessed to those videos as well.

You can only get accessed to those extra videos if you purchase through my link either below this video or inside the description area of this video.

That’s it for me. Once again, I really recommend you at least check out this plugin. As I said, it’s got a money back guarantee so even if you don’t like it, for some really, really crazy reason; you can get your money back. But seriously, the cost of this plugin is by far much lower than the value that you will be getting out of this plugin. I think I paid back for it, for the plugin, within one day. So very,very powerful. Please check it out. Click on the link below this video to check out the video or the sales page for the plugin and see for yourself how it can help you grow your optin list and how it can help you grow your online business.

Thank you for watching and I’ll look forward to seeing you inside the next video.
