Once you've located the landing page you wish to add a Leadpages countdown timer to, click on the
pencil icon on the right-hand side of it to edit it. You'll be redirected to your Leadpages editor.
To add a Leadpages countdown timer to this landing page,

and then drag-and-drop that countdown timer to the location of your choice. If you hover your cursor
over the Leadpages countdown timer, there are a number of things you can do to it: edit it, which
we'll cover in more detail in a bit, duplicate it, move it to a new location, or delete it.
When you click on the pencil icon from the Leadpages countdown timer's individual toolbar,
there are a number of things you can edit. Under the date section, you can select whether
your Leadpages countdown timer is a standard countdown timer, meaning that it counts down to 0
up to a certain time and certain date that you select.
This standard option is great for sales pages, when you're running a flash sale, for instance.

Tutorial On Sales Page With Leadpages'. I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
The Leadpages countdown timer can also be a daily countdown timer, meaning that it
counts down to 0 every single day, and the timer resets daily, or an evergreen countdown timer,
meaning that each visitor who lands on this page will have a different countdown timer start time,
and that countdown will have the number of days, hours or minutes that you select.
If you choose this evergreen option, you can then click on this 'reset countdown for all
visitors' link at the bottom to start the Leadpages countdown timer all over again.
This evergreen option is great for tripwire pages, when you want to provide a sense of
urgency to those who land on this landing page so that they take action ASAP.

watch my video on 'How To Create A Tripwire Landing Page For Your Tripwire Sales Funnel'.

Under the clock section, you can select what happens once your Leadpages countdown timer
reaches zero: do nothing, redirect (either jump to a page section, and then select
the section from the dropdown menu, link to a landing page, and then select the landing page
from the dropdown menu, and toggle whether that landing page should open in a new window
and use no follow, or link to an external URL, and then paste the external URL in the space provided,
and then toggle whether that external URL should open in a new window, use no follow
and count this button click as a page conversion, which is ideal if you're linking to a checkout
page, for instance, and want to track who follows through), or show or hide, and then select
which sections you wish to show or hide once the Leadpages countdown timer reaches zero.
I usually select redirect for my Leadpages countdown timer,
and redirect my flash sale or tripwire landing page to a sales page with the full price option.
Under the color section, you can customize your Leadpages countdown timer's number and label
colors. You can either choose one of your brand colors, a recent color, or even click on 'add'
to choose a custom color, or type in the color of your choice's color code and opacity.
Under the design section, you can customize what your Leadpages countdown timer looks like from
the available options: unstyled, block, and then choose whether you wish it to be square rounded or
