The purpose of various WordPress blogs may not be the same, but one thing is the same, that is to let more people hear their voices. There are many ways to do this. But there is a way to stick users forever. That is to let users subscribe to the blog. Talking about letting users subscribe to a blog is a headache. Because most bloggers are not celebrities and have nothing to interest fans. Even so, there is still a way for users to subscribe to the WordPress blog.
The following 5 methods can benefit bloggers (WordPress blog):
1. Only allow users to enter email
When a visitor subscribes to content, they often encounter the casserole ask for name, gender, phone, verification code, and other messy things. Therefore, it is often necessary to complete a subscription, as if a transcript has been made, which often scares away users. So, if users are to subscribe to a WordPress blog, the simpler the better, get rid of unnecessary and possibly false information (just ask how many people will fill in the real information), just an email is enough. Don’t worry about losing useful information. Once a trusted relationship is established, then get more personal information than email.
2. Let users know the reason to subscribe
No user will subscribe to a blog because of their sympathy. To apply a popular saying: give a reason first. What are the benefits of subscribing to your blog? Can it benefit me? Yes, does your blog make sense? Can it solve my problem? So, use a simple and motivating slogan to let users know that email subscription can help them.
Give a few simple examples:
“+Subscribe for free updates on WordPress themes”
“*Subscribe to get free weekly WordPress journals”
“-Subscribe to get free tips to solve your complex problems”
These reasons make users feel that blog posts are helping them. Give them the motivation to subscribe.
3. Use social media to gain a sense of identity
Social media recognition is an excellent way to remove “fear barriers”, and remember this slogan often appearing on TV:
“Everyone is using …”
“30 million people are driving …”
While in school, mobile phones are also using these slogans:
“We are all using mobile to play the dynamic zone.”
These words are useful because everyone has a sense of identity. Let your potential subscribers know you have a certain number of active subscribers
Example:
“Subscribe to join 500 readers, use this blog to solve your WordPress problem!”
4. location of the subscribe button
The location of the subscribe button is relatively important, and there is no need to go through more introductions. Put the subscribe button in a suitable position and let the reader find it by himself. The subscribe button most suitable position is in the upper right corner of the blog.
5. More creative topics
This is very difficult to master. Some popular WordPress community sites are very popular because of the creation of many topics.
So how do you create a topic? There is no fixed formula to follow. But the following three topics can give some inspiration:
- Popular Topics: The more popular the topic, the more people pay attention to its development.
- Relevant topics: Topics that should be related to the blog topic should get more feedback.
- Controversial topics: Controversy is always interesting, sometimes positive, sometimes negative. But these will make people pay attention.
