There are a lot of different tools out there that you can use to get more email subscribers!

I use many of these tools. I’ll also mention some that I don’t use but that other bloggers and marketers recommend.

While social media marketing is one way to bring in traffic and leads, email is still the #1 way out there to turn potential customers into buyers. Quite simply, email marketing continues to reign as king.

I hope you find some of these resources to be helpful!

1. OptinMonster

OptinMonster is one popup plugin that you can use to capture email addresses when visitors stumble on your blog. At the time of writing, I have it installed on this blog and several of my other websites.

The reason that I like OptinMonster is that it’s super easy to set up a email opt in forum using the software. The product comes with a whole bunch of templates that you can choose from.

For those of you who are advanced marketers, you can also create A|B tests, to see which image or wording converts best. The software also gives you page level targeting, meaning that you can create custom messages for specific pages.

The pricing ranges between $9 – $29/month

2. SumoMe

SumoMe is another tool that you can use to get more blog subscribers. The software comes with a whole suite of functionality, including popup forms, heat map technology so that you can track visitor attention, content analytics, and more.

What I like about SumoMe is that if you don’t feel like installing a whole bunch of different plugins, you can just go with SumoMe. Most beginning bloggers want the functionality that this suite offers to grow their email list. Rather than hunting around for various solutions, you can just pick SumoMe and then spend all of that time writing new blog posts!

I’ve seen a lot more blogs use SumoMe to cover their traffic into email subscribers. You can try it for free. The premium features, like A|B testing, range from $39 – $119 per month.

3. Leadpages

Leadpages makes it super simple to set up a landing page, sales page, or opt-in page to gather email addresses. I personally use them for a few different websites.

I have to admit that there are a lot of solutions that you can go with in this space. Others include Clickfunnels, OptimizePress, and UnBounce. I’d recommend looking into all of them. The reason I decided to go with LeadPages is that I wanted the process to be dead simple.

I don’t want to have to deal with designing forms. I didn’t want to have to host the landing page on my own server. Now that LeadPages has added drag and drop functionality, I think it’s a more compelling product.

The pricing for LeadPages ranges from $25/month to $199/month.

4. Aweber

Aweber is email marketing software that will help you manage your blog subscribers. When you send out an email newsletter, you’ll get data on open rates, click through rates, and more. You can also use the software to create autoresponder sequences.

If you’re looking to turn blogging from a hobby into a serious activity, you absolutely need some kind of list management software. It doesn’t have to be Aweber. You could also look into MailChimp or CovertKit.

You can also use Aweber to create and stylize email sign up forms. In the long run, I think that the most powerful feature of email list management software like Aweber is the ability to segment your email list based on past behavior, like purchases or email opens.

Aweber is free for 30 days and then starts at $19/month.

5. OptinSkin

OptinSkin is another tool that you can use to increase the number of email subscribers that you have for your blog. Rather than just having a simple opt-in form in the footer or sidebar of your blog, you can use one of the beautifully designed themes to make the form stand out to your readers.

I think that OptinSkin also has some attractive themes if you’re planning on offering an ebook as a freebie or giveaway in order to entice visitors into becoming subscribers. I have used this plugin in the past and haven’t had any issues.

Unfortunately, often times a low-quality design turns off visitors from making that decision to become an email subscribers. By using a plugin like OptinSkin, you can make sure your opt-in forms look professional and that by subscribing, your visitors are going to also receive professional and helpful content.

Pricing for this plugin starts at $67.
