How Squeeze Pages Can Get You More Sales And More Money
One of the questions that seems to be popping up a bit on the blog is about how many people are getting traffic, but no sales.
And there’s a bunch of people who are asking how to get “leads”, and build a list.
So, I asked a well respected Internet Marketing coach that I know — his name is Mark Widawer — to answer the question for you.
I expected him to say he’d be “happy to write something up”, but I was surprised to discover that he sent me a video instead! And he said he’d make more, if our TrafficSwarm users liked them.
So, if you were wondering “What is a Squeeze Page?” and “How do squeeze pages help me sell more on my website,” then watch this video now.
Once you’re done, Mark is offering to answer more questions. So post your question below the video, after watching it.
OH, and be sure to say Thanks to Mark for making the video. That way, we’ll be sure to get more.
Kaycee
P.S. He sent me a few more already, which I’ll post. So watch this one now, and you’ll get another email from me in a few days when the next one is posted.

Hello Mark,
I really enjoyed the info you discussed on your video.
Where I`m at as a complete Newbie is, I have GetResponse as my
Auto Responder and I have the PluginProfit Site as my main Business.
As you are aware there are lots of squeeze pages available out there,
if you generate your own squeeze page, how do you get the customer when
they fill their name, and e-mail address, to be linked to this Business,
as in, there must be some codes you need to insert into the squeeze page.
Which at this time, I cannot even manage HTML on my website.
On another tangent, (you would need the same for a squeeze page I`d imagine),
where can I source info on directions for teaching myself HTML code to
insert into my site, even more, for free as I`m not making any sales
to be able to invest in my business as yet???
Again, this kind of info for someone in my position is precious.
Thankyou,
John Combe
Two Questions:
1. Will this work OK with affiliate sites?
2. Will it work OK with OTOs?
I am happy about this video i cant wait for the next one. i would really love to know how to create my own squeeze page, if its free and also do i need my own website or can i do this on an affiliate website?
thank you.
Love this video, very nice starting point. You are such a great speaker, and explain things very well. I can’t wait for the rest of the series, as I am soaking up every tidbit of info. that you are sharing. Thank you!
Thanks
Hi Mark great vidio explained a lot
what is the difference in squeeze page and a blog are they similar or completely different
and would you always use a blog or a squeeze page even if you are an affiliate if you wanted to build up your own list of people as if you send people straight to a website is it the case you are just building their list and not your own .
Thanks Mark for your info. Keep the videos coming!!
Hi Mark, great info on the first squeeze page video. My question is, should I use a squeeze page on my main web-site to promote an affiliate program?
Thanks Mark Looking forward to your next video
John
Hi Mark,I am a Newbie when it comes to all the technical apects of Internet Marketing and Advertising but, after listenting to you I feel confident that I can learn a whole lot from you. Your presentation was clear, concise, and easy to understand. I am looking forward to hearing about Auto Responders and technical issues. Thanks Lilly
Thanks for the video. Im new to this affiliate marketing online and trying to navigate the system. I’m looking forward to your next video.
This company has capture pages that I would like to put my info into but it does not let me edit the page. Nothing opens up what am I doing wrong?
Thank You very much
What I need are leads to call everyday, so just having their first name and email address will not work. They can be very expensive though. Can you help with this?
Hello John, and Bill, and everyone else…
Great question about putting a squeeze page on an Affiliate site. Here’s the low-down on that.
You generally will not have access to the merchant’s website.
As an affiliate you’re paid to generate traffic that turns into leads, but the site itself is not yours.
So…when people opt into the merchant’s site, they go onto HIS list, not YOUR list.
How do you fix that?
You put up a squeeze page on your own site, that makes a good offer that is consistent with the product you’re sending them to…like a free report, a review, 7 tips, a free video about the same topic, and so on.
Offer that on your squeeze page.
Then, on the Thank You page, put your affiliate link that points to the merchant’s site…or better yet, make the page redirect automatically to your affiliate link.
Now, you’ve got the traffic going to the affiliate…AND you are building your list.
Cool, right?
Now, to those waiting for MORE VIDEOS…
I’ve got one all done. The folks at TrafficSwarm are about to post it, but we’re just making sure it doesn’t do goofy things when a ton of people watch it at the same time, like the last one did.
As soon as that’s handled, we’ll post it, and send you out a notice that it’s there for you.
OK?
Keep asking your questions…I’ll come back as often as I can to answer them.

Hi Mark,
Thanks so much for the information on “Squeeze Pages” I’ve seen a lot of these pages and signed up on a lot as well. But never knew exactly what they were called:\ So after watching your video, I now do and am interested in adding one to the website that I and my husband have hosted with Hostgator.com selling handcrafted jewelry that I make.
I have listed on my homepage that anyone who would like to sign up to receive updates on my website or to be on my mailing list to go to my “Contact Us” page where I have a form there for them to fill out with this type of information. But I don’t have a “Squeeze Page” or this type of area listed on my home page. So, I’m just wondering if this is something that I should think about adding? I get visitors to my site, but so far no sales. I’ve had my domain name for a couple of years and had our site up before hosted through another company. But they changed some things that we didn’t like so our site was down for several months and we just recently got it back online. We do also have a “Guestbook” page but so far with that we’ve only had other what I call “Spammers” putting their links on and that’s it.
So my question is, do you think that our site would benefit and help us get more sales from the traffic that we do get if we add a “Squeeze Page” to our site? If so could I just make this an area on my “Home” page or would I need to add this as a new page?
If you would like to check out my site and let me know what you think, I would greatly appreciate it. Again, thanks for the great information and I look forward to watching to your next video’s:)

thank you Mark for your video teaching.I think it would be great for my business and best sales.
Hi Mark, great information. How do I get an AutoResponse program affordable and effective.
Hello Mark and Kaycee, enjoyed your video. listened several times. Thank you!
Questions: Do you think squeeze pages work best for Web marketing products? I don’t see them for ordinary products so much. Maybe am not looking hard enough.
Secondly - are alot of people becoming wary of squeeze pages? Do they turn away people? Come to think of it, a good squeeze page is interesting no matter what, isn’t it?
Okay! Thanks again!
Oh - to gardening cegsilver above, Sonic Bloom sounds interesting. Your page looks pretty terrific and made me interested in researching further. If sonic bloom is all natural without chemicals or pollutants, would like to sell it too. : )

i have a sqeeze page and my question is, do i or can you have to much on a sqeeze page? i have 3 diffrent auto responders on one of my sqeeze pages and a lot of content. but its because im offering many diffrent things and most are free! my page is like, well you can do just about anything from there! ill inclued the link to my page so you can tell me what you think! http://affiliatefunnel.com/givesqueeze2pic.php?rid=17547
for the record, ive been trying to make money on line for about 10 years and i started out with the notion that i know everything and i took no advise from no one and because of that i got nowere! i had no ideal what an auto responder was or a sqeeze page, i was just promoting affiliate links for years and getting nowere! my goal then was to make money without spending a dime, i still would like to proove that thats posable, but i question that! i have just recently started to take advise and quit being stubern about it, knowing now that i know nowere near everything there is to know about it! lol im learning now about writing blogs and i have a few but i wont go into that.
Hello Joel.
If you’ve got a squeeze page with three different autoresponders on it, it’s not a squeeze page.
The idea of a squeeze page is that the customer has only one choice to make — one thing he can either decide to do or not do. And, that one thing means he’s leaving his name and email address.
If you’ve got a lot of choices, and links to other things, it’s not a squeeze page, and you’re likely going to get a 2-5% conversion rate on that page, rather than the 20-30% that you should be getting.
So send your different kinds of traffic to different squeeze pages with your different offers.
You’ll do lots better (and make more money).
Is that helpful? Let me know.
–Mark Widawer
p.s. There are few people, Joel, who think they actually know everything, and actually do. In fact, those who do know everything will always tell you they’ve got more to learn.
That’s why they all have coaches, teachers, and mentors of their own.
So kudos to you for your wisdom. And thanks for asking your question.

Looking forward to your next Video on the second Page pleasse let me now when it comes out
Hi Mark!
Thanks a lot for the video! Very informative.
I didn’t really get the part in your answer about affiliate links. How did you mean I can redirect automatically to my affiliate link from the Thank you page? If I have a button it’s not automatically and if it redirects they don’t see the Thank you page. I must have missed something.
Looking forward to more videos (about how to make the sign up process function with code and from where.
Thanks.
Kind regards Simona

I have a gift and collectibles website and I’d like to be able to add a squeeze page to the site that will lead to my affiliate link http://www.newbieclub.com/?anxious_to_work I can add a link but no info on it.I really enjoyed your video on Squeeze Pages.Can’t wait for the next one.
Thank You

I have an aWeber account, a yuhknow.com email account and I have build a landing page, a thank you page, but putting the elements together and making it work is more than I skilled at doing. So, what or where do I go to get these last details? By the way, I am on a MAC and I have purchased two other programs that guarantee successful squeeze pages however, they turned out to only work on PC. Any suggestions for further help in closing this circle?
Bill
Great advice on the squeeze page
I just read some of the comments. One person asked in affiliate marketing how to you get them to come to your page in stead of the vendor’s?
You advertise your own landing page is how
Get the email
Then redirect or have a link to the vendor’s site

Hi Mark, Thank you for the video. I am a newbie
and I did appreciate your video, but would like if possible for you to do a video for someone like myself who has no knowledge of the internet or how to set up a website to earn some money. It would be great to have a video which starts from - step 1 etc. I can send emails but that is about it. A video for complete beginners would be great.
Thank again

Great video. I didn’t realize that a Squeeze Page was the same as a Lead Capture Page. Thanks for enlightening me. I would like to learn more about successful/more effective Squeeze Pages.

Hello, I do have a job that I am about to dive right into. I just know that I will succeed this time and I have TrafficSwarm as my homepage and I really do appreciate the video you gave. I have heard of squeeze pages although I knew a little about them, this really cleared some things up and it was free. I would really love some more videos for help to people with their own businesses. I think blogs would be very interesting and helpful. By the way, I will be using TrafficSwarm again as I open my back office and get started again. Thankyou very much and good day to all of TS associates.
Sincerely, Lisa Veal
ps-once again-very helpful.
TrafficSwarm is definitely one of the very best autoresponders to use for your home business for sure. If you didn’t know, please give em’ a try.
Thanks again, Lisa Veal
Hi Mark,
Thanks for the info on squeeze pages, since I will begin building my own site by the end of May, or the beginning of June.
Also, is there a difference between a squeeze page and a landing page?
And a final note for you affiliates. There are a number of good reasons for building your own site. One of them being that most of the top directories will not accept affiliate sites.
HiMark,
I just watched your video the question now is that where do I have to start putting my squeeze page? I’m new to all of this and I’m still confuse. I want to make some money on the internet but so much to learn. Is this the right website I have to promote? Thanks for the info. It’s really interesting.
Hello Mark, Very informative video. I have a vista print web site and we can add forms, I’m not sure if I can add a squeeze form, but I could make something like it. I am just unsure what I can offer people for free for filling out a form. Maybe free info, I don’t know.
Thank you for the information! Look forward for the next video.
Hi Mark,
Thanks for your video on squeeze pages. I now understand them better. My questions are, 1. can I use them with affiliate sites or do I have to create a site of my own (which is a whole other challenge for me?) 2. How do I get my squeeze page out there? 3. Is there any free how to sites out there that actually takes you through the process step by step rather than just saying do this and do that?
Thanks once more,
Frank
Hi,
Great Information. How do you connect your autoresponder with the squeeze page?
Hi Mark,
Thank you for a very informative video. I need to know how to capture these names and e-mail addresses. How do I get an auto-responder?…Like everyone else, I’m always looking for ways to improve my website, traffic, and sales.
I’ll like to know where can I learn more in details how to make a good squeeze page,something like a step by step,cost and anything involve with it.
I really enjoyed your video on Squeeze Pages…can’t wait for the next one…hungry for more knowledge
God bless!
Thank you so much,
Federico.
Thank you Mark,
When the new video is going to be posted?
Thanks,

Hi!
Judy has just asked what i realy would like to know too?
I`m new at this and i just got for the first time a product. It included a seted up site and when i got it seted i realised it has a squeeze page on it. Well i´m wandering if that happend like this there must be an auto-responder as well. So, how do i get to know how is it working and how many people are responding to my squeeze page and who they realy are? It seems for me that it may take a long time until i get a big list. By the way, could i use the same list to promote or sell other products?
Mark thank you for the video it was very informative. Like most new people I have a lot of growind to do. Like i have told others I am a caveman in the computer age. That being said I would like to know more about setting up my sites properly. I agree with some of the others who need a step by step guide to help them. I have ten websites total and I would like to find a way to connect them all together.I also need to drive people to my site as fast as possible. Thank you for your help. Tim
Very good and informative video. I’m looking for a source to design a capture page for me. I’m familiar with using auto responders. Thanks - Dave
Hello, I was wondering if a squeeze page will work for my online store with mutiple product categories? I sell hard products delivered via ground mail when ordered. I have an opt-in newsletter, but it’s further in the site as you would progress thru the check-out. But if no one is buying, then no one is opting in. Thanks David
Very good video, very informative, this will come in handy when I begin my campaigns next week.
Thanks Norm
Thank you very much Mark I am privilaged to have been able to access this very important information. And thank you Traffic Swarm to think I was considering giving up and deleting my membership account altogether mainly because I just didn’t know how to do things.

Hi Mark,
I got my Squeeze Page already (hope it is any good) but I have difficulty getting traffic to it.
Should I not show the Thank-You page with my product offer, or only say “Thank You ….lahdy, lahdy, la….etc.” And 2 days later send them a link to my Sales Page?
Thanks in advance for your expert advise.
Regards,
Ronald.
