You Could Be Turning Subscribers Away
There is a distinct possiblility you are losing subscribers and don’t even
know it. You could be letting potential subscibers to your opt-in list leave
your squeeze page without getting an opportunity to join.
I don’t know about you but I sure do not need this.
I can only speak for Aweber, because thats all I have ever used. So this
may or may not affect you, you will have to do a little homework.
If your autoresponder service offers a “Javascript Snippet” to add your
autoresponder code to your squeeze page…You could be presenting
a blank page to potential subscribers.
Here’s what is going on:
Firefox is becoming a very popular “Web Browser” especially among the IM niche.
The most popular pluggin downloaded for Firefox is called “AdBlockPlus.”
This awsome pluggin blocks all kinds of advertisements
which slow down your internet browsing. It blocks banners as well as javascripts
that power advertisements. SO it will also block your opt-in form.
What happens is your squeeze page will be BLANK except for the little portion
that asks for name and email (or whatever you choose to ask for when you construct
the form at Aweber). So now you are sending potential subscribers to a blank page
that asks them for the gold you want.
How do you get around this? Simple, opt for the HTML Version and paste that in
like you do the javascript.
Don’t deliberate…decide get on over to your squeeze page and change out the
javascript snippet for the html code.

Hi Scott, thanks for bringing that to our attention. I always check my work on both Firefox and internet explorer and have never considered these plug ins.
Great post Scott.
I’d also like to say “Thanks for the support you gave while my mum was at deaths door”. You all helped a great deal.
Regards, Barry
