A Welcome Gate™ is a cross between a popup and a squeeze page. But it’s far less annoying and aggressive than both (while still delivering serious results).
Here’s how a Welcome Gate works . . .
1. When someone goes to your home page, they’re redirected to a squeeze page that looks like this. (the page is at a url like http://www.YourSite.com/WelcomeGate/).
2. Your Welcome Gate has a “skip this step” link, so folks aren’t required to opt-in.
3. Folks are only redirected to a Welcome Gate when they go to your home page (i.e. if someone links to a specific blog post on your site — from twitter or their blog — your Welcome Gate won’t display).
4. If someone goes to http://www.yoursite.com, they’ll be redirected to your Welcome Gate at http://www.yoursite.com/welcomegate/ . . . but if they get confused and type in your home page URL, they’ll simply be taken to your home page.
5. A visitor will only see your Welcome Gate once in their lifetime (unless they go to your site again with another computer or browser, or clear their cookies . . . the chances of this are very high).
