Hello everyone,



There's a plethora of good things happening in Zoho Campaigns right now and here's one for marketers to connect with people who visit your webpages. 


Most of you would have read our recent updates in Zoho Campaigns. Here I am throwing light on popup forms that help you turn your website visitors into contacts. Using popup forms, you can show relevant messages to your website visitors and drive them to sign up for your newsletters, blogs, and more. Moreover, Zoho Campaigns can be used to send email newsletters to these visitors.




Here are a few tips to tick off and use popup forms before checking what's in store for y'all in Zoho Campaigns:



1. Relevant and valuable information 


Give proper and valuable information to people who visit your webpages. Once you decide the context for your popup form, you can choose the type of popup that should jump out of the screen while your visitors take a look at your pages.



In Zoho Campaigns: We've two types of popup forms, namely Standard and Blanket popup forms. The former is the normal popup form that is well known as the window popup form and the latter type of form covers the entire portion of your visitor's screen.




2. Visitors engagement



Think about the way people would engage with your pages and decide the further set up of your popup forms. Make sure that you give people some time to read and grasp the content before throwing up a popup form.


In Zoho Campaigns: Choose when and how your popup forms should appear on your webpages:


A. Entry - While they enter the page.


B. Exit - When they are about to close or leave the page.


C. Scroll - If you want to introduce the popup forms when they scroll through your page.


D. Specific time - Choose any specific time from the options given. For instance, 10 seconds can be set up so that the popup appears after your visitors stay on the page for 10 seconds.


Moreover, you can also choose the position of your popup forms as to where it has to appear on the page and decide on the animation aspects too, if required.




3. Simple and clear language


Do not write long sentences with CAPS and promise them for non-existing possessions. Keep your popup form content simple, clear and compelling such that your visitors will take immediate action, adding more contacts to your mailing list.


 In Zoho Campaigns: Choose a template from our array of templates and edit them the way you want them to be. Add images, text, button and edit fields to customize the popup form for your visitors.





4. Mobile Experience

All templates in Zoho Campaigns are mobile-optimized and you also have a preview option which helps you view the templates. Have you not seen the popup forms in different styles? It is good to have a variety of designs for your popup forms but always preview and see if it looks on other devices too. Go for responsive templates that create better user experience for mobile users also.

5. Convenient exit

Respect your visitors' decision even if it's going to affect your business. You will have to make sure that they are easily given an option to exit the popup form if they do not feel like subscribing to any of your email updates.

                                                In the last post, we learned about the subject line. Today we'll be learning about the preheader.
