Gated downloads that capture leads.
A gated download asks for a visitor's email before giving them a file, such as a guide or a checklist. LeadsOnSite handles the form and hands over the file, counts every download, and starts your follow-up automatically.

Common questions
What is a gated download?
A gated download is a file, such as a guide or a checklist, that a visitor gets after giving their details, usually an email address. It turns interest in the file into a lead you can follow up with.
What should I offer as a gated download?
Offer something useful and specific to the people you want to reach, such as a checklist, a template or a short guide. It should be worth an email address on its own.
Can I see how many people downloaded a file?
Yes. LeadsOnSite counts every download, along with the views and starts for that widget.
Can the follow-up start automatically?
Yes. A follow-up funnel can email the lead straight away, wait, send another email, and tag them.
