One tactic that works well is to blur the locked content, so the reader gets a sense of what he or she is missing. It’s very tantalizing when the content is just out of reach!

Content Locker Pro makes it very simple to do this, and it’s worth testing to see if it increases your engagement.

Time pressure is a well-proven conversion tactic. Content Locker Pro allows you to use this tactic by locking your content after a few seconds – to unlock it, your reader will have to share or opt in!
