Wondering about creating a Wix optin page from scratch? In this free landing page tutorial,
you'll learn how to create a Wix lead capture page with ease. So let's get right into this Wix
website tutorial on how to create a landing page in Wix using the Wix contact form.
First off, if you don't have a Wix account yet, just click on the link in the description
box below to sign up for free. Once you've logged in to your Wix account,
hover your mouse over the website you wish to add a Wix optin page to,
and then click on the pencil icon to access your Wix editor.
In your Wix editor, click on the pages dropdown menu on the top, left-hand side, and then on
'manage pages' at the bottom. In the site pages menu, click on 'add page' at the bottom. To learn
more about all of the page options that Wix offers, make sure to watch my video on 'How
To Make Separate Pages In Your Wix Website'. I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
Wix now offers free landing page templates to make it fast and easy to create a Wix
lead capture page. Click on 'landing page' from the left-hand side panel
to see all of the landing page options which can help you collect leads and promote your site.
Landing pages keep site visitors updated and informed on your business or brand.
You can also use landing pages as a way to direct
visitors to more useful information, or even subscribe to your Wix website.
Choose from a range of landing page templates, such as "Coming Soon" and "Down for Maintenance"
to suit you and your Wix site's needs. After adding a landing page, you can make it your
site's homepage, or have it be a general page on your website, such as a regular optin page.
Let me show you how to do all that. Wix has a number of landing page templates
that you can choose from, including coming soon, lead collection, app landing page,
down for maintenance, registration, and webinar registration. Since we're creating a Wix optin
page from scratch, I'll go ahead and hover my mouse over the 'lead collection' landing page.
You can either click to preview the page,
and if you enjoy that landing page template, click on 'add page' to start customizing it.
Rename your landing page in the site pages menu, such as to the name of the optin you're offering.
To transform your Wix optin page into your homepage,
click on the three little dots next to it, and then on 'settings'.
Under the 'page info' tab, click on 'set' next to where it says 'make this your homepage?'.
To have this page be a general page on your website,
such as a regular optin page that is not part of your main menu, don't set it as your homepage,
and toggle this 'hide from menu' option so that it's on. You can also click on the 'layouts' tab
and then on 'no header and footer' rather than 'standard' to have your visitors focus
just on this Wix lead capture page, and not on any other information around it.
This way, you can link to this Wix optin page from any other page on your website,
without it showing up in the menu up top. This is exactly what I do with all of my optin pages
on my website. Although you can access the 'resources' pages from the menu up top,
you can only access and click through to each optin page from the resources page.
Just like with any regular Wix page, you can click on any of the elements on this landing
page to edit them from their individual toolbar, including the text, image, columns, and Wix forms.
For more details on the available customization options in a Wix website, make sure to watch my
video on 'How To Create A Website In Wix'. I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
You can add Wix Forms for free in Wix to create a free high converting landing page in Wix,
but you'll have to upgrade your Wix Ascend plan to add more forms to your site, add an unlimited
number of fields, let visitors upload files, and get advanced chat, email marketing, and more.
If you wish to add a third party email marketing form to this landing page,
such as from ConvertKit or Mailchimp, make sure to watch my video on
'Adding HTML Code To Wix'. I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
Once you're done creating and customizing your free landing page in Wix, make sure to
click on 'save' and on 'publish' on the top, right-hand side to make your changes active.
