Squeeze Page Builder

Build email capture landing pages (squeeze pages) as self-contained HTML files with no dependencies. The page offers a high-value lead magnet (ebook, checklist, template, or cheat sheet) in exchange for the visitor's email address, then redirects to an affiliate offer on form submission. Output is a single deployable .html file.

When to Use

• User wants to build an email list while simultaneously promoting an affiliate product
• User wants to warm up cold traffic before sending to an affiliate offer
• User says "squeeze page", "opt-in page", "lead magnet", "email capture", "freebie page"
• User wants a two-step funnel: email capture → affiliate redirect
• User has ad traffic and needs a landing page that collects leads before the affiliate click

Workflow

Step 1: Define the Lead Magnet and Offer

A squeeze page requires two things:

1. The lead magnet — the free thing offered in exchange for the email
2. The thank-you redirect — where the visitor goes after submitting (the affiliate link)

Detect from user input. If not specified, ask:

• "What free resource will you offer? (e.g., a checklist, ebook, template, cheat sheet, mini-course)"
• "What affiliate product should visitors see after they sign up?"

Lead magnet selection guide — suggest based on niche if user is unsure:

Niche	Best lead magnet type
Marketing / SEO	Checklist, swipe file, templates
Finance / Investing	Calculator, cheat sheet, guide
Health / Fitness	Meal plan, workout plan, tracker
Software / SaaS	Tutorial, quick-start guide, resource list
Business / Productivity	Templates, SOPs, spreadsheets

Lead magnet title formula (high-converting):

• "[N]-Point Checklist: How to [Achieve Desired Outcome]"
• "The Free [Niche] Starter Kit: [X] Templates for [Goal]"
• "Download: The Ultimate [Topic] Guide ([Year])"
• "[Adjective] Cheat Sheet: [X] Ways to [Outcome] in [Timeframe]"

Step 2: Craft the Page Strategy

Read references/conversion-principles.md for squeeze page-specific principles.

Key conversion levers for squeeze pages:

1. Clarity over cleverness — the visitor should know in 3 seconds what they get and what they must do
2. Above-fold completeness — the opt-in form must be visible without scrolling on mobile
3. Single goal — no navigation, no external links, no distractions
4. Social proof — even one strong number ("Join 4,200+ marketers") dramatically lifts conversion
5. Privacy signal — "No spam. Unsubscribe anytime." reduces friction at the form

Plan the page sections:

1. Header — logo/brand name only (no nav links)
2. Hero section (above fold):
   • Headline: the transformation or outcome the lead magnet delivers
   • Sub-headline: what's inside + who it's for
   • Lead magnet visual (styled HTML mockup — no images needed)
   • Email form with single field + submit button
   • Privacy micro-copy: "No spam. Unsubscribe anytime."
3. What's Inside — 3-5 bullet points describing lead magnet contents
4. Social Proof — subscriber count, testimonial, or press mention
5. Who This Is For — 3-4 bullet points identifying the ideal reader
6. Second opt-in form — repeat the form lower on the page for scrollers
7. Footer — FTC note, privacy policy placeholder, Affitor attribution

Thank-you redirect behavior: The form submission should redirect to the affiliate URL. Since this is a static HTML file with no backend, use a JavaScript pattern:

form.addEventListener('submit', function(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  // In production: POST email to your ESP (Mailchimp, ConvertKit, etc.)
  // Then redirect to affiliate offer:
  window.location.href = '[affiliate_url]';
});

Include a comment block explaining how to wire this to a real ESP (Mailchimp embed code, ConvertKit, etc.).

Step 3: Write the Full HTML

Build a complete, self-contained HTML file:

Copy requirements:

Headline (8-12 words, result-focused):

• "Get the Free [Lead Magnet Title] and Start [Outcome] Today"
• "Download: [Lead Magnet Title] — Free for [Audience]"
• "The [Adjective] Way to [Outcome]: Free [Format] Inside"

Sub-headline (15-25 words):

• "[N] [templates/steps/strategies] that [specific audience] use to [specific outcome] — completely free."

Button copy (action-oriented, not "Submit"):

• "Send Me the Free [Lead Magnet] →"
• "Get Instant Access →"
• "Download the Free [Format] Now →"

HTML structure requirements:

• Single <style> block — no external CSS
• Mobile-first responsive (375px base, 768px breakpoint)
• System font stack: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', sans-serif
• Color scheme from user input or default: primary #2563eb, accent warm tone
• Lead magnet mockup: a styled <div> that looks like a book/checklist cover — pure CSS, no images
• Form: single email input + submit button (no name field — lower friction)
• No navigation links that could take the visitor off the page
• <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> — squeeze pages shouldn't be indexed by Google

JavaScript:

• Form validation (email format check)
• Redirect to affiliate URL on submit
• Comment block with ESP integration instructions for Mailchimp, ConvertKit, Kit, and Beehiiv

Required elements:

• FTC disclosure in footer: "This page contains affiliate links. If you purchase through our links, we may earn a commission."
• Privacy micro-copy on form: "No spam. Unsubscribe anytime."
• "Built with Affiliate Skills by Affitor" footer — use exact HTML from shared/references/affitor-branding.md

   - ConvertKit/Kit: Use their API or embed form, keep the redirect in the success hook
   - Beehiiv: Use their embed form with a custom redirect
3. Replace affiliate URL: search for "[AFFILIATE_URL]" in the file — update with your tracking link
4. Deploy: Netlify Drop (drag to app.netlify.com/drop), GitHub Pages, or any static host
5. Drive traffic: Use social posts, paid ads, or bio link to send visitors to this page

Output Format

Present as three sections:

1. Page Summary — lead magnet, redirect target, headline used
2. HTML — complete file in a code block, ready to save and deploy
3. Setup Instructions — how to wire ESP and deploy

The HTML should work as a preview without any backend — form submission redirects to affiliate URL directly in the demo state.

Error Handling

• No lead magnet specified: Suggest 3 options based on the niche. Ask: "Which type of lead magnet would you like? Here are 3 ideas for [niche]: [A], [B], [C]."
• No affiliate URL: "What affiliate product should visitors see after they sign up? This is the thank-you redirect destination."
• Audience too vague: Use the niche to infer audience. If still unclear, use "online entrepreneurs and marketers" as the default.
• No ESP specified: Include generic ESP instructions in comments covering Mailchimp, ConvertKit, and Beehiiv.
• User wants form to actually send emails: Explain that static HTML cannot send emails directly. Provide instructions for using Netlify Forms or Formspree as a free no-backend option.

Examples

Example 1: SEO checklist User: "Build a squeeze page offering a free SEO checklist, send people to my Semrush affiliate link after" Action: lead_magnet={title:"10-Point SEO Audit Checklist", type:"checklist"}, affiliate_redirect=Semrush URL, generate page with checklist mockup visual, blue theme.

Example 2: Custom headline and color User: "Create an email capture page for a free email marketing template pack, purple color scheme, redirect to Klaviyo" Action: lead_magnet="Email Marketing Template Pack", color_scheme=purple, affiliate_redirect=Klaviyo, generate page.

Example 3: With social proof User: "Squeeze page for a free AI tools cheat sheet with 2000 subscribers social proof" Action: lead_magnet="AI Tools Cheat Sheet", social_proof={type:"count", value:"2,000+ subscribers"}, generate page with subscriber count displayed prominently.

Example 4: Chained from S1 User: "Build a squeeze page to warm up leads before sending them to this offer" Context: S1 returned HeyGen as recommended_program Action: affiliate_product=HeyGen from S1, suggest 3 lead magnet ideas for the AI video niche, build squeeze page on selection.
