Welcome to Ben’s Experience! In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to add a Mailchimp pop-up form to your WordPress website. Follow these step-by-step instructions to create and implement a pop-up form that will help you capture leads and grow your email list.

Step 1: Log in to Mailchimp

First, visit the Mailchimp website and log in to your account using your username and password. If you don’t have an account, you can create one for free.

Step 2: Create a Pop-Up Form

Once logged in, navigate to the “Audience” section and click on “Sign Up Forms.” Select “Create New Form” and choose “Pop-Up Form” from the options. Give your pop-up form a name, such as “Newsletter Sign-Up,” and select your audience from the list. Click on the “Begin” button to create your form.

Step 3: Customize the Pop-Up Form

You can now customize the design of your pop-up form. Click on the “Style” tab to edit the font, color, and layout. You can also set display rules, such as when the pop-up should appear and how often it should be shown to the same visitor. Additionally, you can preview how the pop-up will look on both desktop and mobile devices.

Step 4: Add the Code to Your WordPress Site

To add the pop-up form to your WordPress site, you need to insert some code into the head section of your website. Here’s how to do it:

1. Install the “Insert Headers and Footers” plugin on your WordPress site.
2. Go to the “Tools” section and click on “Insert Headers and Footers.”
3. Paste the code provided by Mailchimp into the “Header” section.
4. Save the changes.

Step 5: Connect and Activate the Pop-Up Form

After adding the code, go back to Mailchimp and click on “Check Connection” to verify that your site is connected. Once verified, turn on the pop-up form to make it live on your website.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully added a Mailchimp pop-up form to your WordPress site. This pop-up form will help you capture leads and grow your email list. Remember to regularly check your Mailchimp account to manage your audience and analyze the performance of your pop-up form.
