Whether you’re using WordPress as a blog or as a standalone website building a list of hungry prospects enables you to develop long-term relationships. If a prospect gets to know, like and trust you they’re more likely to purchase products you recommend. WordPress makes it easy to build your own list building page using the Contact Form 7 plugin.

The Contact Form 7 plugin enables you to manage multiple contact forms on multiple pages or even place them in your sidebars. You don’t even need to create a confirmation page because the person immediately receives a confirmation message on the same page after he has submitted the form. You can also customize the form by easily generating any number of fields e.g. text, drop downs, radio buttons, message fields. Form results are forwarded to your e-mail address. Using an additional plug-in (which works with the Contact Form 7 plugin), form results can be stored on a database on your server and managed with an Excel spreadsheet . The Contact Form 7 plugin supports Ajax-powered submitting, CAPTCHA, Akismet spam filtering and more.
