The Biggest Mistake Bloggers Make With Their Subscription Boxes

May 29, 2014 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

I'm happy to see you around. You may want to subscribe to my blog. Thanks for visiting!

Welcome back! I am so happy to see that you have come back for more.

There are millions of blogs. Although a majority of bloggers have a subscription box on their blogs, many of these bloggers are creating ineffective subscription boxes that take up space and get no subscribers. In order to establish a powerful presence for yourself on the web, you need to have a subscription box that is going to get you more subscribers.

Here’s where the mistake comes in. Most bloggers decide to caption the button something like, “Subscribe Now” or “Subscribe For Free Updates.” The mistake is that the buttons include the word “Subscribe.”

Even when my blog’s traffic started to increase rapidly, I continued gaining a small number of subscribers. Even though my blog was getting thousands of extra visitors I was not getting a lot of extra subscribers. In some cases, I would not get a new subscriber to my blog for a week.

Then, I made a small change to the subscription button. The original button said, “Subscribe Now For Free Updates,” but I decided to make that button say “Count Me In!” Right when I made that change, I immediately got more subscribers. Now I am gaining several subscribers every day.

Growing your list is one of the most important ways to build a strong presence for yourself on the web. By growing your list, you will be able to get in contact with more people who want to buy your products. Does your subscription box say “Subscribe Now” or something similar? If you are using the word “Subscribe,” then you need to change that to get more subscribers.
