21 most commonly used growth techniques by foreign growth hackers

After testing and practicing throughout 2017, foreign growth hacker Abdul Hafez summarized 21 very practical growth hacking tips that are easy to operate and have ideal ROI.

1. Hide the redirect cookie for 45 seconds

When placing retargeting ads for your website, don’t choose those people who exit immediately. Use JS code to hide the redirection cookie for more than 45 seconds. In this way, people who receive redirection ads are those who have a strong interest in the website.

2. Use Live Chat

Popping up a chat window on a specific page and displaying specific content can better activate users. Abdul Hafez used this trick to increase user registration rate by 5%.

3. Collect more emails

Overseas marketing relies heavily on email lists. Using the Hello bar plugin, you can collect user email addresses on your website.

4. Attract more Twitter followers

Tweetfavy can significantly increase your Twitter followers for only $19 a month.

5. Add the URL to the navigation site

For example, Launching Next is a startup navigation site with considerable traffic .

6. Outsource your content
Blogmutt or pr oblogger, you can get a high-quality dry word article (English) for only $100. (In China, you can go to QQ groups, public accounts , Zhihu or Douban to find high-level but unknown creators)

7. Convert recordings into articles

Deduct points directly and write articles faster! Abdul Hafez recommends using the rev tool (English). (For domestic users, I recommend using the app iFlytek Voice Recorder.)

8. Collect sales leads with pop-ups

Some pop-up tools can detect the user's mouse trajectory. Once the user is about to move to number X (exit behavior), a pop-up window will appear to retain the user - this is a good opportunity to collect leads. Abdul Hafez recommends using Sumo

9. Advertise on Quora

In fact, few people know that you can place ads on Quora by yourself, so the competition is small and the CPC is very low. (In China, Zhihu advertising seems to be quite expensive. I recommend registering a Zhihu Blue V, opening hidden privileges, and creating your own marketing account.)

10. Advertise on Pocket

Pocket is a world-renowned delayed reading (collection) tool with precise positioning and low CPC price. (For domestic users, I recommend trying similar products. It’s fun and can help you promote it .)

11. Deliberately creating errors in emails to customers

When writing an email, deliberately forget to include the link to the landing page/promotional document. Then after an interval of 1-5 minutes, the second email will be automatically sent. Oops, forgot to send you the link. , and then put the link/document on it. According to Abdul Hafez’s experience, the conversion rate will surge while the open rate remains the same.

12. Find niche topics

Finding vertical topics on reddit, linkedin group, and quora and actively interacting with them can attract many targeted users.

13. Put Emoji in the Email Title

According to Abdul Hafez’s experience, doing so can significantly increase the open rate (refer to the email from product hunt)

14. Track your competitors

Ghostry can identify what third-party code is running behind the scenes of your competitors’ websites. This way you will know its advertising distribution channels , website analysis methods, and strengths.

15. Use browser push

Some people may not know that the i browser can also push notifications like an app, with a very high conversion rate. It is recommended to use the tool pusH crew.

16. Advertise on Capterra

A well-known foreign SaaS search engine , a destination that software companies flock to. Advertise the software on it, in the words of Abdul Hafez. It fucking works. . CPC is less than $2, super precise users.

17. Ranking on Quora and Reddit

You can go to fiverr and find someone to help you get votes, likes, and comments to increase the exposure of your posts. (Everyone in China understands this)

18. Turn popular articles into videos

Use Ahrefs or BuzzSuite to find the most popular articles in your niche, then adapt the articles into videos and post them on YouTube to attract attention.

19. Adding a real-life profile picture to your Google + profile can increase your Gmail open rates

20. Use Gmail Ads

AdWords has a Gmail advertising feature that can match ads based on keywords in emails received by users. This trick can match your competitors’ promotional emails and keep up with their pace.

21. Use Free Images
