I made an email newsletter sign up form that pops up only when it's polite to do so. I call it "Polite Email Popup" โ€” and it has support for ConvertKit!

Hi ConvertKit Community!

Yesterday, I posted about my "Polite Email Popup" plugin on Twitter and people seemed to love it! I think you might like it too. A lot of creators and marketers want a better way to convert visitors to an audience โ€” by being polite, while also getting as many subscribers as possible.ย 

Here's how Polite Popup works:

  • If a visitor comes to your site and leaves within 10 seconds, nothing happens. They weren't interested in the site or its content, so Polite Pop doesn't bug them.
  • If a visitor activity scrolls your site for 10 seconds or more, a simple email sign up form will appear along the bottom of the page, asking your visitor to sign up.
  • If a visitor continues to show active interest in your site (visiting multiple pages and/or spending lots of time reading your content), then when they finally decide to leave you website, an exit-intent popup will appear asking them to subscribe to your newsletter. This is the perfect time to ask them, since they've already gotten a ton of value from your website.

You can learn more about what makes Polite Popup different and what it considers to be "polite behavior" from the official website: https://www.politepop.com/

I added support for ConvertKit because that's what I use for all my websites โœŒ๏ธIf you want to use it with your ConvertKit forms, just follow the instructions in this tutorial video.
