What are Giveaways all about?
You can signup as a contributor for JV Giveaway Events in order to build your list for free. You must provide a free downloadable gift as a contributor. This can be an e-Book, Software, Website Headers, PLR-Articles or any other free product that can benefit the members of the giveaway.
There are 3 important things that you need to setup when adding your gift to a JV-Giveaway:
1.) Your Squeeze Page
You have to provide some sort of Squeeze Page with a signup form to your newsletter or opt-in list. This can be a very simple website, here is an example:
Click Here for a sample fully functional Squeez Page
2.) Your Redirect Page
This is the page that people will be redirected to after they have signed up at your squeeze page. You have 2 options here: You can either create a "Thank You Page" with the download link for your free product, or you can use a "One-Time-Offer Page" as your redirect URL. Personally I always use the One-Time-Offer Page, this way I can make some instant cash from these giveaway events. Here is an example of an One-Time-Offer Page: Sample OTO Page
If you decide to use a One Time Offer Page as your redirect url, then you have to send out the download link for your free product with your first autoresponder email.
3.) The Direct Download Page
Most JV Giveaways have an upgrade option for their members. When taking the upgrade option members can instantly download all the products included in the giveaway event. That's why you have to provide a Direct Download Page or the url to your download file. If you do not provide a direct download, then your gift will not be approved in these giveaways.
