Video Tip: Adding an Optin Form After Each Blog Post to Boost Your Number of Subscribers

Here's a quick video showing at least one way to use a tip I found out about over at the AWeber blog.

I've said this before, but it's worth repeating…if you're looking for great tips on email marketing, you should head over to AWeber and sign up for their email list (whether you use their service or not). They give some awesome tips on getting the most out of your email marketing campaigns, like the tip that prompted me to do this video.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to make a backup of any files you edit before following the steps covered in the video. Probably not necessary, but always a good practice.

Anyway, leave a comment below and let me know what you think and if you'd like to see more videos like this.
