@Caroline;

I am planning a simple php script implementation that only presents the popup to people coming from SU, yahoo, msn and google. I think Josh is doing this now with good results. I will be posting about that later today if I can find a bug that is driving me crazy. It’s a simple script….. UGH. I wish I was as smart as Josh.

@Josh — agree. I am also interested in “brand perception.” Financial results are important, but I don’t want this blog to be seen as spammy. That is why I am considering limiting the popup to search and SU traffic (like you).

@Kent — It should be in the latest newsletter. However, send me an email and I will send you the login information directly.

Mark – sorry for a repeat question, but, like others, my e-mail with your log-in details was likely deleted unknowingly several months ago. Any other way to get log-in information so I can download this cool tool? Thanks!

@ Big – “Lighbox” popups and many other variations have been around for years and they continue to be effective… Darren simply wrote a blog post about his recent results, which let many of newer marketers in on the lead generation possibilities.

If a user comes to my blog and leaves because they don’t like my offer for a free report, which will take them about 1 second to decline, then I don’t want them as a reader…

I agree though, no popup is more user friendly than having one, but as long as you make the “close” button available right away and it goes away as soon as they click it, I don’t see it as a problem.

The lightbox trend has been launched by Darren Rowse. I’m not a fan of Popups, I consider them a little bit spammy, although I’ve tested them out on my own blog and I too have seen good results. I’ve made them with Aweber and set a delay to the apparence. On this way the visitor fisrt starts reading the post and then he gets the popup. Getting a popup as the first thing when i come to a site sets me up and makes me walk away.

That is a nice looking popup! But I gotta ask… why aren’t you using it here?
