attentionGrabber (Demo | Price: $12)

Even though Foobar was my favorite, attentionGrabber was too good in terms of design. The transition effect is so smooth and you can optionally add official Twitter and Facebook button next to the post link. So with regards to the backend and in terms of design attentionGrabber is the best.

Check out the video demo after this line.

Notification Bar (Demo | Price: $12)

Notification bar is a decent notification WordPress plugin with cool color themes, cookies support and its compatible with all major browsers. Other than that, you can position and animate the bar.

ViperBar (Demo | FREE)

ViperBar from ViperChill is a free alternative to Hello Bar. I haven’t tried it on any of my blogs, but still looking at the AWeber, MailChimp and FeedBurner integration, its falls under the best free notification bar for WordPress.

Example Template Three

There are still eight more opt-in form templates. Click the button below to check out all 11 templates.

So what’s special about OptinBar?

OptinBar has a different approach to lead generation by giving you an option of 11 different form styles to gain more subscribers and leads. I was testing some of its features and found its kind of an ideal tool for all Internet Marketers who use WordPress for promoting their products. So is it a free plugin? Yes, but certain features can be unlocked if you bought the full version which would cost $47.

Another great point to buy OptinBar was its support for all popular email subscription services such as Mail Chimp, AWeber, Constant Contact, iContact, Instant Customer and Get Response.

OptinBar WordPress Plugin Configuration Page

The OptinBar customizations are easily configured with a click of a button. The overall settings page is clear enough to instruction people of all ages to customize their OptinBar. The Free version offers little feature, so if your an Internet Marketer, I suggest going for the premium.

So what are you waiting for, go get OptinBar and maximize your revenue potential. If you still not convinced try OptinBar Lite for free

If you are planning to start a Membership site, all you need is

1. A good web hosting. I suggest Hostgator because of their incredible 24/7 support and all my blogs are hosted with Hostgator. You can use “bloggermint” coupon code to get 25% discount on any hosting plans.
2. Install WordPress
3. And Magic Members WordPress Membership Plugin. Yes these three are the ingredients for creating a full fledged membership site.

Why Magic Members?

First and the foremost reason for picking up Magic Members was because of their customer support, money back guarantee and great collection of support videos. As you might know configuring a membership plugin is not that easy, I have seen people hiring WordPress developers for installing and configuring their membership plugin. But that’s not the case with Magic Members. Users find it a lot more easier to configure using the support videos.

• More than 16 Payment Module Integration
• Pay Per Post Access
• AutoResponder Integrations – AWeber, GetResponse, Constant Contact, iContact and MailChimp.
• Download Manager with permission based on different membership levels.
• Unlimited Membership Levels
• Custom Widgets & Shortcodes and much more

Lets me explain certain features of Magic Members in details.

Membership

Magic Members offers great control over membership. The members tab give you a detailed picture of registered members, their membership level, joined dates and the status. Exporting members from a specific membership levels to another can be moved with a click of a button. Other than the membership features, coupon codes can be created with user limit and expiry date.

I personally loved the “Roles and Categories” under Members tab to easily assign roles to subscribed users. You can use the existing roles like Admin, Editor, Author, Contributor and Subscriber or you can create your own role (with any name) and assign capabilities.

Pay Per Post

This is my favorite feature in Magic Members. Pay Per Post allows defining post pack for certain posts or a specific post for which users are asked to pay before reading the post content. Alternatively you can also use “Content Control” setting in Magic Members to specify Full, Partly or None content protection.

Another important feature to talk under Pay Per Post is “Gift a Post/Page“. Using Gift a Post you can select a registered members and send a specific post/page as a gift.

Payment Settings

Magic Members supports almost every popular payment gateway. Be it Authorize.net to PayPal Pro. Then you get to customize payment confirmation email content, failed payment email content and even you get to customize button/logo for membership levels. Literally setting up payment gateway never been this easy.

Magic Members also comes with support for popular email responders like AutoResponder Plus, Aweber, Constant Contact, GetResponse, iContact, Mail Chimp.

There are many featured which I haven’t discussed here but you can learn more by visit their website. This review is based upon my real experience with Magic Members and how good their supports is.

Finally there is one more thing,

You can watch video tutorials of “how to use Magic Members” right inside your WordPress dashboard. Cool isn’t it? So think wisely and get Magic Members to power up your membership site.

Pingdom has premium plans too but looking at it’s monthly pricing plan, I suggest Are My Sites Up is really affordable. Still, if your looking out for good free website monitoring tool then this is one you should try.

My favorite features:

The prices vary based upon the add-on you choose, but pretty good deal if don’t prefer spending on yearly packages. Premium plans have a 15 days FREE trial account.

Finally….

I might have missed some good website monitoring tool, but these are the five in which some I have tried and others are recommended by my friends who used those tools. So if you find any good tool, drop via comments. At the end of the day, people hate downtime especially on product based websites and ecommerce websites. So act fast and monitor website downtime smartly with these tools.

With FeedEk you can display feed description, feed counts and feed item publish item which is really cool when compared with other techniques.

Here is how to do it

Step 1: Download FeedEK from here

Step 2: Upload the FeedEk.js to your server and add the below code before closing </head>

<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.6.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="FeedEk.js"></script>

Step 3: Add the placeholder for the RSS widget anywhere on your web page.

<div id="feedek">
</div>

Step 4: Finally add this little jQuery code on your webpage. Make sure you change the feed url and change the other values depending upon your need.

<script type="text/javascript">
 $('#feedek').FeedEk({
   FeedUrl : 'http://feeds.feedburner.com/bloggermint',
   MaxCount : 5,
   ShowDesc : true,
   ShowPubDate:true
  });
</script>

That’s it. Now using this method you can easily embed RSS/ATOM feed of any website on any web page. If you haven’t seen the demo yet, here it is.

To modify the style, you can use your own CSS to match the website’s look or try this sample CSS provided by FeedEK

#divRss{ width:450px; padding: 0px 3px 3px 5px; background-color:#FFF;
border:1px solid #D3CAD7; margin-top:3px; }

.ItemTitle{ font-weight:bold; margin:5px 0px 0px 0px; padding-top:3px; }
.ItemTitle a{ color:#4EBAFF; text-decoration:none }
.ItemTitle a:hover{ text-decoration:underline }
.ItemContent{ padding:1px 3px 3px 3px; border-bottom:1px solid #D3CAD7; color:#3E3E3E; }
.ItemDate{ font-size:11px; color:#AAA; }
