Opt- ins are at the simplest, a place for you to collect e-mail addresses somewhere on your website or your webpage. This could be on your course pages, your blog pages, your home page.  And a great way we've discovered to do this is Opt-in Monster.

Opt-in Monster has some amazing tools that make it super easy to put opt-ins anywhere and everywhere on your site. Everything from a simple button for people to download a PDF or an e-book, to subscribing to your blog or even dropping down a complete welcome mat that takes over the whole page and turns any page into a very high converting page.
