You now have an awesome giveaway tailored to your email list growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"use-signup-forms\">2. Use Multiple Sign Up Forms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using multiple opt-in forms across your website helps capture more email addresses by meeting users where they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A great way to put this into practice is to combine a <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wpbeginner.com\/wp-tutorials\/how-to-create-a-sticky-floating-footer-bar-in-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">floating bar<\/a> with your sidebar form. Or, you can use a <a href=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/best-wordpress-popup-plugins\/\" title=\"\">popup plugin<\/a> to make your opt-in forms stand out from the rest of your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take advantage of the <a href=\"https:\/\/optinmonster.com\/docs\/how-to-use-display-rules-in-optinmonster\/\">display rules in OptinMonster<\/a> when building your forms so that they trigger at a specific time or action. This spaces out your forms so users don&#8217;t see them all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you can have your floating bar trigger when a user scrolls past your sidebar form. And, when they&#8217;re about to leave, your popup optin can kick in to draw their attention back to your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"558\" height=\"311\" src=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/cosmetic-capital-lightbox-floating-bar.jpg\" alt=\"how to grow your email list with multiple signup forms\" class=\"wp-image-879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/cosmetic-capital-lightbox-floating-bar.jpg 558w, https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/cosmetic-capital-lightbox-floating-bar-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/cosmetic-capital-lightbox-floating-bar-50x28.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the above example, Cosmetic Capital used multiple sign-up forms to <a aria-label=\"increase leads by over 300% (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/optinmonster.com\/how-cosmetic-capital-increased-leads-by-300-using-a-floating-bar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">increase leads by over 300%<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"create-lead-magnets\">3. Create Lead Magnets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A similar option to the one above for growing your email list is offering a lead magnet, like a free checklist or download. It gives people a strong reason to join your email list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"558\" height=\"331\" src=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/strategy-report-lead-magnet.jpg\" alt=\"Example of a lead magnet from inbound marketing\" class=\"wp-image-881\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/strategy-report-lead-magnet.jpg 558w, https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/strategy-report-lead-magnet-300x178.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/strategy-report-lead-magnet-50x30.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead magnets can take many different forms, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/how-to-create-an-email-newsletter\/\">Newsletters<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Checklists<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Case studies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>free <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seedprod.com\/how-to-create-an-ebook-landing-page-in-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eBooks<\/a>, and more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>But the vital thing to remember is that they should offer extra value to visitors. If what you&#8217;re offering isn&#8217;t worthwhile, people won&#8217;t want to sign up to your email list. For more lead magnet ideas, take a look at this guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/ebook-marketing-tips\/\" title=\"7+ Ebook Marketing Tips You Can Actually Use Today\">7+ Ebook Marketing Tips You Can Actually Use Today<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"offer-content-upgrades\">4. Offer Content Upgrades<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lead magnets work well, but they can take a long time to create, especially when you&#8217;re writing an ebook. So, you can try another way to grow your email list, like content upgrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A content upgrade adds bonus content to a blog post in exchange for an email address, making it highly targeted and effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&#8217;re also pretty post-specific, so it&#8217;s wise to create a few, maybe 3-5, and add them to your most popular posts that get the most traffic. That way, you can get many targeted subscribers interested in that content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why not check out this guide for <a aria-label=\"using gated content (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/optinmonster.com\/gated-content-marketing-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">using gated content<\/a> to skyrocket your list?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"558\" height=\"374\" src=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/brendan-hufford-content-upgrade.jpg\" alt=\"excellent content upgrade example from brendan hufford\" class=\"wp-image-880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/brendan-hufford-content-upgrade.jpg 558w, https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/brendan-hufford-content-upgrade-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/brendan-hufford-content-upgrade-50x34.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few examples of content upgrades you can use yourself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You can turn Blog posts into cheat sheets or checklists users can download as a content upgrade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can create transcriptions of Webinars or Podcasts and offer them as a content upgrade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can transform significantly long articles into a <a href=\"https:\/\/rafflepress.com\/how-to-sell-digital-downloads\/\">downloadable PDF<\/a> for a content upgrade.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at these <a href=\"https:\/\/optinmonster.com\/30-content-upgrade-ideas-to-grow-your-email-list\/#ideas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">content upgrade ideas<\/a> for more alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Content upgrades use psychology to expand your list. Because people are more likely to complete a task if they take the initiative to do it themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, when someone downloads your content upgrade, they&#8217;re more likely to complete the signup process because they took the initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a complete step-by-step guide on <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wpbeginner.com\/wp-tutorials\/how-to-add-content-upgrades-in-wordpress-and-grow-your-email-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">adding content upgrades to WordPress<\/a>, check this out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-5-use-exit-intent-popups\">5.
