What is RafflePress?

RafflePress

RafflePress is the ultimate WordPress plugin for creating powerful and engaging online giveaways. It makes it easy for anyone to build, manage, and track contests that captivate audiences and drive real results.

While there are plenty of WordPress giveaway plugins, we chose RafflePress because it comes with advanced features and a robust setup.

By learning how to use RafflePress, you can:

  • Create Stunning Giveaways: Use ready-made templates and design features to craft eye-catching campaigns that stand out.
  • Engage Your Audience: Offer irresistible prizes that encourage participation and sharing, turning your giveaways into viral sensations.
  • Boost Your Email List: Collect valuable email addresses from participants, growing your subscriber base effortlessly.
  • Drive Traffic and Sales: Increase website traffic, promote product launches, and generate sales with strategic giveaway actions.
  • Track and Analyze Performance: Monitor entries, progress, and results with detailed giveaway reports to refine your strategies.

With RafflePress, you’re not just limited to growing your email list and driving traffic. The plugin offers a variety of entry options to ensure your contests reach a wide audience and encourage maximum participation.

Add entry options in RafflePress

So for instance, you can add the following entry options to your contest:

  • Follow on Social Media: Grow your social media presence by offering entries for following your profiles on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more.
  • Visit a Page: Direct traffic to specific pages on your website or partner sites, boosting visibility and engagement.
  • Refer a Friend: Harness the power of word-of-mouth marketing by giving participants additional entries for referring friends to your giveaway.
  • Sign Up for a Newsletter: Grow your email list by requiring participants to subscribe to your newsletter in exchange for entries.
  • Watch a Video: Increase your video content’s views and engagement by asking participants to watch a video for entries.
  • Leave a Comment: Drive engagement on your blog or social media posts by offering entries for leaving comments.
  • Complete a Survey: Gather valuable customer insights by requiring participants to complete a survey for entries.
  • Answer a Question: Engage your audience with fun and interactive quizzes or questions that participants must answer to earn entries.

That’s just to mention a few, there’s a lot more inside the plugin. So you see, RafflePress isn’t just another giveaway plugin; it’s designed to be a powerful tool to help you achieve your marketing goals through innovative and engaging contests.

We’ve used RafflePress ourselves to run our own successful contests for years. In a single campaign, we’ve seen a 20% surge in unique website visitors, many of whom were completely new to our brand.

In our experience, these giveaways have consistently delivered strong results, generating anywhere from 500 to 1,000 high-quality leads per campaign. The best part is that we get genuinely interested leads who have already shown a willingness to interact with our website.

And now, we’ve partnered with the RafflePress team and worked with them closely to create this course in a way that’s simple and easy to digest no matter what level of expertise you have.
