Funnel Builders? Whether you want to build an Optin Page that goes to a Thank You Page on Submit or build a Sales Page with Upsells and Downsells it’s all about Funnels! Today, with these tools, it’s much easier, with no need for coding and techy skills…
BUT, and this might seem unusual, I am NOT including Page and Funnel Builders and tools that require a high monthly or annual fee. The reason is simple…
The reason is simple! I DON’T LIKE BEING HELD HOSTAGE!
So tools like ClickFunnels and Unbounce are OFF my shortlist as are LeadPages and Convertri. I’m not saying they are bad, just VERY expensive – especially if you are just getting started online and when you stop paying their exorbitant fees your pages, sites, and funnels are GONE!
Why? Because the fact is with the majority of those recurring payment Funnel Builders your pages and funnels sit on THEIR site and servers and NOT yours! So, if you stop paying then your sites and funnels are G O N E ! I like to have total control of my online assets, thank you very much! Being held financially hostage by a software company does not sit well with me!
NOTE: In the Pros and Cons I focus on the Important Stuff – important to me anyway – rather than list all the various Features of each Page Builder – get clued up on all the various Features, Bells, and Whistles by going to their sites to find the best fit for you…
IN A NUTSHELL: I see no reason in ‘reviewing’ a crap funnel building App or Theme or Plugin OR the super pricey ones. All of these below get my endorsement, it’s just a question of which one is right for you in YOUR business…
