Title: Create Your Own "First Visit" Popup Window
Author: Shelley Lowery
Article:
It's a proven fact that the use of popup windows is a highly
effective marketing technique that produces great results.
However, they can be very irritating to your visitors. How can
you use this powerful marketing technique without offending your
visitors? Compromise and use a popup window that only displays
the first time your visitor enters your site.
Your first step in creating your popup window will be to create
an HTML document that will contain your window contents. The key
to using this technique effectively is to give your visitors a
reason to respond to your offer. For example, if you're using
your popup window to gain new subscribers to your publication,
offer a free gift just for subscribing. This will increase your
response considerably.
Below, is an example popup window that you can use to gain new
subscribers. It is set up with "tables" and will adjust to fit
your new window. Copy and paste the following code into your
HTML and edit as needed:
<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Claim Your FREE Gift</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY
BGCOLOR="#ffffff"> <CENTER> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2"
ALIGN="Center"> <TR> <TD BGCOLOR="red"><P ALIGN=Center> <FONT
face="Verdana,Helvetica" SIZE="3" color="white"> <B>Claim Your
FREE Gift!</B></FONT> </TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><B><FONT
face="Verdana,Helvetica" SIZE="3">
Subscribe to YOUR
PUBLICATION for a wealth of information to assist you in YOUR
PUBLICATIONS SUBJECT. <FONT color= "red">ALL new subscribers
will receive YOUR FREE GIFT. </FONT></FONT></B>
<FORM
METHOD="POST" ACTION="YOURFORM.cgi"> <CENTER> <TABLE BORDER="0"
CELLPADDING="2" ALIGN="Center"> <TR VALIGN="Top"> <TD> <INPUT
type="text" name="email" value="you@domain.com" size="20"
onfocus="value=''"> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Subscribe"></TD>
</TR> </TABLE> </CENTER> </FORM> <P ALIGN=Center>
<A
HREF="javascript: self.close()"><FONT face="Verdana, Helvetica"
SIZE="2">Close Window</FONT></A>
</TD> </TR> </TABLE>
</CENTER> </BODY> </HTML>
Save your new document as "popup.htm" and upload it to your
server where you store your HTML documents.
Your next step will be to place the following script, courtesy
of Brian Terry <secretwebriches.com>, within your HTML after
your <BODY> tag.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- function GetCookie(name) {
var arg=name+"="; var alen=arg.length; var
clen=document.cookie.length; var i=0; while (i<clen) { var
j=i+alen; if (document.cookie.substring(i,j)==arg) return
"here"; i=document.cookie.indexOf(" ",i)+1; if (i==0) break; }
return null; } var visit=GetCookie("COOKIE1"); if (visit==null){
var expire=new Date(); window.name = "thiswin";
newwin=open("popup.htm", "dispwin",
"width=350,height=350,scrollbars=yes,menubar=no"); expire=new
Date(expire.getTime()+7776000000);
document.cookie="COOKIE1=here; expires="+expire; } // -->
</SCRIPT>
Note: If you're unable to view the coding within this article,
you can find it here: http://www.web-source.net/popups.htm
If you saved your new window document as anything other than
"popup.htm," you'll need to change the "popup.htm" text within
the script to your new file name. You can also change the width
and height settings to whatever you'd like. However, make sure
that all of the information within your window is visible.
Popup windows provide Internet marketers with a great way to
gain new subscribers, introduce new products and announce
special offers. Their response rate is outstanding. With the use
of this great script, you can use the power of popup windows
without continuously nagging your visitors.
