It is only possible to add as additional groups the groups of the list in which you are adding the form.


How to add a subscription form to your landing page

The landing pages created with the drag & -and-drop editor can contain a subscription form, so as to become a tool for acquiring new subscribers, like the Subscription forms.

...

  • Delete or modify one of the fields inserted by default
  • Change the field label (eg "Name" to "What's your name?")
    Warning: once the label has been modified, it will no longer be visible in the editor in the original name of the recipient field entered
  • Drag a field up or down
  • Add a new master field by selecting "Add new field"

Select the field you want to insert and then click on edit to change the label (i.e. the name that appears above the field), the type of content, the placeholder (a description to facilitate filling in), whether the field is compulsory, and/or read-only.

Info

You can insert only subscription forms on the landing pages, that is, to acquire new subscribers. If you want to update the information of your recipients, we recommend that you use the profile update forms.

Form protection with invisible captcha

The captcha is a form security measure that protects the form from abuse, users from spam and keeps your database clean with only real contacts.

In most cases, the control takes place invisibly to the visitor because the tool interprets whether the interaction with the page is by a person rather than an automatic bot.

...

Only in case of suspicious activity, the captcha administers a simple test to understand if the person filling out the form is a human.

Options available depending on the active subscription

Sending customized Subscription confirmation email

The compilation of a registration form provides - by default - the sending of the registration confirmation email in which the new recipient has to confirm. This process reduces the risk of the form being abused and the acquired contacts database damaged. To retrieve the email that is sent, go to the section Subscriptions > Confirmation request email.

Depending on the active subscription, you can:

  • choose a different email for each landing page with subscription form;
  • decide not to send the confirmation request message and register the contact directly when filling out the form.

Customized Welcome email

The welcome email is a message that you can send to all recipients as soon as they sign up. You can activate the automation and set the email to be sent in the Subscriptions > Welcome email

Depending on the active subscription, you can:

  • decide to send a different email for each landing page with subscription form
  • decide not to send the welcome message for that single landing page

Customized post-signup pages

After filling out a registration form, users see a page with the result of the registration ("Thank you for your registration! You will soon receive our newsletters." Or "Attention, your email was already subscribed to our newsletter", etc.). This page can be customized or replaced with dedicated landing pages (created in MailUp or hosted on your site).

Depending on the active subscription, each landing page with subscription forms can be customized with dedicated post-subscription pages.

How to measure the effectiveness of the landing page?

Once your Landing page has been created and published, you can monitor how many contacts you are acquiring and see the details of their status.

...

  • Email subscribers
  • Pending emails
  • SMS subscribers

...

By clicking on the number highlighted, you can access the Recipients section to see the details. If your Landing page does not contain any Subscription form, then "No subscription form inserted" will be displayed (see image above).

How to use landing pages that contain a subscription form?

  • On-site: refer to the landing page to collect new subscribers on your site.
  • On social channels:
    • share the link to your landing page to get new recipients.
    • use it as a landing page for Facebook's "Add a Subscribe Button" feature
    • to collect new subscribers with your adv campaigns.

...

To create a landing page starting from an existing message, go to the message overview.
