I have a question for you. I'm a little new to connent locking. What would want to make a user come back to the site if it's just content locked? If I wanted to check out a site and saw a survey, I would leave. How would I make it of interest to them?
Well, what would make you want to return?
Many people drive traffic to a single piece of content which they believe people will want. They lock it and, when their visitors complete the offer they get that piece of content, so everyone's happy.
Others wish to build out a site, and gain return visitors. So they offer lots of content, and possibly set long-term cookies (up to a year), so that visitors presented with a locker, who have completed an offer, don't have to complete any more for some time.
One example is game cheats. If you are a gamer and there are hacks or cheats you really want, you'll be happy to complete a short offer. If, after completing it, you actually GET what you wanted, chances are you'll come back when you start to play the next great game, or when you move to another level and need a new cheat, etc.
There are plenty of ideas for content which users will come back to a site for, repeatedly. You can achieve visitor loyalty even when locking content, provided your content is good and desirable.
Many, many more examples and ideas are available in our buyer's private area.
