Although popups and opt-in forms are among the best ways to hold back visitors, reduce the bounce rate of the website and increase the conversion rate, there are times when users tend to close them without even seeing what they offer.

In order to avoid such circumstances, one can use an opt-in locker or a Locked Content popup or opt-in form.

You can also use the Locked Content Popups or the Opt-in Locker to hide a particular page or a downloadable file until the user successfully submits the form. Such Opt-in forms will not allow the user to move about unless he has submitted the form.

ConvertPlug gives you a ready-made template for a Locked Content Modal popup. In order to use this, follow the below-mentioned steps.

1. Open the Modal Design page in ConvertPlug and click on “Create New Modal

2. Select the Locked Content Template

Click on “Use this” to open it in the Editor.

3. Make required changes. Save and Publish.


ConvertPlug allows you to create Locked Content popups, slide-ins or info bars too.
