Facebook Registration for Your Web Forms

Facebook needs no introduction. It has a staggering number of users, so integrations like posting recent newsletters to your fan page or placing a web form there are always exciting to talk about.

Today, we’re happy to introduce a new Facebook integration: Facebook registration for your AWeber web forms.

 

What Does It Do?

Enabling Facebook registration for your web forms will automatically enter the name and email address of a visitor to your page as long as they are logged in to Facebook. Those not logged in to Facebook will simply see the normal web form.

Essentially, Facebook users will be able to subscribe to your list without touching their keyboards.

How Easy Is It to Use?

In a word: extremely. As of right now, you’ll notice this checkbox whenever you create a web form (or edit one) in your AWeber account. Simply check the box, then continue as normal. Nothing to it.

When you place the form on your website or send people to the AWeber hosted version, the Facebook registration will be available.

Three Reasons This Is AWesome

  • It lowers the barrier for entry to your mailing list. Visitors to your site don’t have to type anything in order to subscribe.
  • Email addresses collected this way are more likely to be valid and active, since the address that Facebook provides through the registration form is the same one that was used to sign up for the Facebook account.
  • There’s no chance for typos. The email address is transmitted directly from Facebook to your web form.
