How to Use Scripts

Written by Francisco Aloy


Scripts are small pieces of code you install on your website to do very specific tasks, following a visitor's actions. The most common scripts for Webmasters are Javascripts and CGI scripts. Though they can perform many other useful functions, they are used best to gather information aboutrepparttar customer's shopping habits.

For example, you can have a script that will pop open when visitors first arrive at your site inviting them to join your newsletter and receive a fr'ee course on a related subject.

You can have a script come alive asking your customers why they didn't purchase when visiting your sales landing page. It can make a fallback sales offer or give them a fre'e item for telling you their main reason not buy.

Scripts can also be used to give you a more personal way of contacting your customer by activating a sound file with your voice. You can show your customers an up-front, human presence that will make them closer to you. They'll feel they know you better going byrepparttar 132410 sound of your voice.

Care should be taken with scripting such as not to over do it. Most folks will not come back to your site if they have to tango with 3 or 4 scripts just to leave! Scripts shouldn't ever be used as "nag screens."

You visit a particular website and are introduced to an offer telling you it's only good for that day until midnight. Should you come backrepparttar 132415 next day, there it is again! Perhaps it should be called an "auto-lie" script!
