I found this article very informative. I'm thinking about adding some sort of non-logged email subscribed input so that even if a visitor doesn't signup, I can still get an email address "second chance". See: Part 1 — Preparing for the storm > 1. The “second chance” effect: Why pageviews mean nothing > 1.1. To email or not to email

We've got an "email course" system module that's almost release ready. (Just not getting any love because other things are higher priority.)

It allows for signups to a list that then sends timed emails from the point of signup:
* day 1 "some welcome email sent."
* day 2 "other title that you put."
* day 5 "Do you remember us?"
* day x "other thing here... "

Could use that to incentivise them giving you their email.

Bump this thread if it doesn't come out by the time Site Builder gets out of beta. :)
