WordPress Squeeze Page Plugin Review

WordPress Squeeze Page Plugin

WordPress Squeeze Page Plugin is just the plugin you’ve been looking for if you are looking to easily set up a squeeze page on your WordPress site and continue to use your existing theme. Unfortunately with most WordPress templates, when you want to set up a squeeze page through WordPress it’s made difficult because most of the WordPress squeeze pages come as themes and not plugins. What this means is that it’s not compatible with your existing theme, which is most likely branded for your business or niche, and it requires an entirely fresh install of WordPress to work. This obviously adds much more time and effort than really should be given to this simple, yet highly important part of building an online business.

The main reason for using a squeeze page instead of relying on an opt-in box in your theme’s header or sidebar is that there will be other distracting things on your page, therefore losing it’s effectiveness and affecting your conversions. The squeeze page has one job and one job only, to capture the visitors email address, with no distractions. Usually setting up a squeeze page meant you had to use html templates that worked outside your WordPress installation and had to know some html to get it to look like it was supposed to. It certainly wasn’t for beginners. Using the WordPress Squeeze Page Plugin allows you to do this, within your existing WordPress install and using your existing WordPress knowledge.

So what can the WordPress Squeeze Page plugin offer you?

It’s simple to install. Rather than having to upload a new page template to your existing theme through your hosting account, you just install the plugin. Once activated you will notice, when you create a new page, that when you click on the pull down menu on the right hand side under page attributes and templates, new options appear with the WPSP prefix such as WPSP – Sales Page. Choose the appropriate template and you are ready to go.

Setting up your squeeze page is made extremely easy for any level of user as there are step by step videos to follow in the members area. With the main object of the squeeze page being to capture email addresses, this plugin caters for this too. Rather than having to play about with code, users of Aweber, GetResponse and MailChimp can just enter their autoresponder username and list name and it’s completed. For users of other mailing list software, just copy and paste your opt-in box code into the space provided and it’s done!

To test what your page looks like you can either view the draft, or publish the page and ensure that it doesn’t appear in your menu so that your visitors can’t see it until you are ready. You can do this by installing a plugin such as Exclude Pages From Navigation, and ticking the box that appears after you have activated it.

If you are serious about building your mailing list through the use of squeeze pages on your WordPress site, then this is an invaluable plugin to have. If you also want to sell digital products using a sales page, then that’s even more reason to get this plugin, as it does it all!
