How To Increase Conversions with Multi-Step Popups?

Many people think that single-step optin is the best way to increase conversion.
But it is exactly the opposite. Using multi-step popups increases the conversions and revenue for a website.
As per the Zeigarnik effect, people usually finish the process they started.
What is a Multi-Step Popup?
A multi-step popup is a popup where you will have multiple steps instead of a single optin option.
In other words, instead of a single step, the visitor will go through 2 or 3 steps to complete the action.
The user clicks a link that is followed by a popup. Completes the call to action and a thank you message is displayed.
A typical yes/no multistep popup is shown below.

All smart marketers use the multi-step popup to increase their conversions.

Let us see how to increase conversions with Multi-step Popups. Follow the steps below to create a multi-step popup using OptinMonster.
Create a Popup
Login to your OptinMonster account and click on “New Campaign” from the right side of the screen.

Then select the campaign type as a popup.
After that, select the template from the list of available pre-built templates available in OptinMonster.
If you are getting more traffic from a mobile device, then you can choose a mobile-optimized template.
For this tutorial, we will choose the canvas and basic template to create a multi-step popup from scratch.

Name your campaign, and choose the website on which you want the popup to display. Then click on Start Building.

Design Your Popup
You can modify the popup from the OptinMonster editor.

To update or modify any block, just click on it. You will get different options at the top of the editor.
These blocks include,
- Button
- ChatBot
- Countdown Timer
- Divider
- Image
- Video
You can use the drag-and-drop feature to add the block to the popup.
The below image is an example of the multi-step popup created for this post.

Once the popup is completed, you need to customize the success page.
If you are using the popup to grow your list, you can add a simple “Thank you” message on the success page after the visitor’s signup.
If you are re-directing the users to different pages or sites, then you need not worry about the success page.
Add your MonsterLink
For this tutorial, we are creating a multi-step popup using MonsterLink.
When the user clicks on your MonsterLink, a popup will appear.
Click on the “Display Rules” button at the top of the editor.

Time on Page will be the default display rule. You can change the options for the display rule using the drop-down option.
Look for MonsterLinks and select it.

Then click on Copy MonsterLink™ Code. Your code will be copied and you can embed it wherever you like it.
The MonsterLink will be in an HTML embed code and will look like the one below:
<a href=”https://app.monstercampaigns.com/c/zme20kceu2n31jdtbmkb/” target=”_blank”>Click Me!</a>
Sometimes, you would need just the HTML form and not the embed code. In that case, you can just copy the HTML link within that double quotes.
The simple HTML link will look like this:
https://app.monstercampaigns.com/c/zme20kceu2n31jdtbmkb/
You can add any anchor text to this link. Whenever any user clicks on this link, a popup will appear.
Just go ahead and click on Save and then Publish the campaign.
You can expect an increase in your conversion rate due to the following reasons:
- People who click on your link will have more interest in the content of your popup.
- As per the Zeigarnik effect, people will definitely finish the process they have started.
