Lead Propeller Actual Leads
Hello everyone. I've been doing some research on Lead Propeller, reading forum post on BP about it, etc., and I'm just about 100% sure that I want to switch my two websites over to them. However, most of the reviews and discussions I see talk about how easy the websites are to setup and customize. Definitely what I am looking for, but what about the actual lead generations and SEO? Has anyone seen an increase in leads after using Lead Propeller? The one thing I always hear from Investor Carrot customers is that they do see an increase in leads after a few months. I haven’t heard much about this from Lead Propeller users. I plan to hire an ad campaign manager to drive leads to my site as well, but out of the box how effective is L.P.?
Thanks in advance for any comments! Looking to get this started soon.

@Michael Hayes There are basically 4 components to a succesfull lead generating website...
(1) Site Design - Is the site easy to use, has calls to action, opt-in forms and everything else that goes into the design.
(2) Content. This is very important and a good site will have fresh content posted to it regularly. The content must be top notch as well.
(3) SEO - This is what is used to get people to your sites. SEO is something that you always need to be working on in order to outpace your competition. Though you can trade SEO for paid advertising such as Adwords.
(4) Conversions - This is how well the site converts website readers to leads. This is the tricky part in my mind. You have to use your Content to build trust and a connection with the reader and your site design to help lead your readers towards the opt-in forms. Lot's of psychology involved in this from placement of opt-ins to images. The nicest looking sites don't always convert as well as ugly sites. Same goes for clean vs cluttered sites.
I've been an Investor Carrot user for 4 years now and LOVE IT. Lead Propeller sites look great and I've spoken with Danny Johnson on a number of occasions...he is a class act and knows what he is doing. I think you couldn't go wrong with either product. Where you can go wrong is not putting the continued effort (writing content, SEO and advertising) into your site to make it bring in leads.
I say, stop trying to decide and just pull the trigger. You'll learn a lot!
