WordPress Opt-In Form with Social Login to receive Leads from Users – Facebook api

Dear Stackoverflow Community,

I am an Online Marketer and I am facing a problem: People are not converting when visiting my page through a smartphone. My interpretation is: they are lazy, as I am too.

I am not too terrible deep into programming WordPress, but I thought about something and seeking advise:

  1. I want to to build a Opt-In Form, which uses Facebooks “Social Login”
    to process the Lead.

  2. I need to find a way to get the “E-Mail-Adress” through the Facebook open graph API.

  3. I generated a lead with one simple click.

I guess Online Marketers are graving for a feature like this!

So my question is:

Do you think it is possible to build a WordPress Opt-In Form which uses Social Login (Facebook, Google) to receive E-Mail-Adresses from my users?

Maybe someone has some experience with this.

Best wishes
Dennis

    I don’t think there is a way to capture user’s email address from facebook without permission of that user. However, there are a number of plugins that show popups and widgets to get users to subscribe to your newsletter etc.

    Also, if your content is good and if you create a catchy Call to Action, then it’s possible to get more people to subscribe to your blog.

    Isn’t the process of opting into a subscription more involved than simply entering a name and email? Personally, I will ignore an optin form that requires me to do a social login.

    Using a regular WordPress opt-in form plugin would suffice.

    By the way, do you have any data that shows conversion is low because social login isn’t present?
