    recently on my site, I changed up my subscriber module.. Made it a lot more compact, shorter intro on top, and added the line "we will never sell or share your private information"

    Instead of before recieving 0.5 subscribers a day, I'm now getting 6-8

    That is still less than 5 percent of my unique visitors each day.

    How can I raise this up?? any tips on your experiences.

    Hi Tom,

    Do you have a link to your site so we can have a look?

    Regards,

    Is it a pop up box or on the webpage?

    yes. try some floating window or a pop-up. visitdublin.com used to have a floating thing on their home page, but they have removed it now.

    On a side note, what is that Powered by Google ad, right below your Chitika?
    I'm not sure if I ever saw something like that... Is that a new thing? Thanks ;)

    I scanned your page and didn't even see your opt in box. Maybe try catching someone's attention with a small graphic or bold color?

    Hi, I also took a look at your page and had to go back up to find the opt-in box.

    As glorybeme suggests you should make it a bit bolder, make it stand out and also make it clear to visitors that it is free.

    Hope this helps
