I have always been telling you tricks and tips and to grow traffic and I am sure you all have grown your blog traffic at least 1% by following my posts. Today I am going to tell you about 5 best Push notifications sites so you can choose from them and use it.
For those who don't know what is Push Notification, push notification is a new way to tell your visitors that you have posted something new or you can send your old posts to visitors when you update them. You have full control over it. And just like email subscribers put email and submit, similar to it you ask your visitors to subscribe to your Push Notifications.
In the beginning I used to think that its not a good thing and I am not going to get subscribers but now my visitors actually subscribe to push notifications on my site. And after knowing its features I am convinced that it is a better and advanced way to keep your visitors up to date and you can always call them to your posts when you have low traffic.
Before sharing names of 5 best push notifications sites for bloggers, I am telling your advantages and disadvantages of push notifications.
| ADVANTAGES | DISADVANTAGES |
|---|---|
| Its easy to subscribe, your visitor will only click a subscribe button and in a pop-up window he has to click "Allow". So its an advantage to your blog visitors and so for you because it is not going to harm user experience. | You need permission of your visitor, you can't auto subscribe anyone. Just like email service. |
| Your visitor gets notification everytime he opens his browser unlike email where he has to login first then find your blog email among thousand other emails. | People can un-subscribe anytime they want just like in emails. But this time they have to manually find the un-subscribe button. |
| You are the king, you have full control over notifications, pop-up, subscribe buttons and everything in almost all push notification services(at least in push notification service I am using). | Your visitor gets auto un-subscribed once he deletes his history. Because push notifications work on cookies. Don't worry they can re-subscribe. And some push notifications service take care of not letting people un-subscribe. |
| Its really easy to send a notification, you have several options too. For example you can put any text as title, you can put description, you can change icon of notification as well as you have thr option to put large images and of course link of the post. Further you have option to target an audience such as only mobile or only desktop. | You have limited space for subscribers. Some push notifications services allow you to have 2500 and some 3000 subscribers. But if you want more subscribers you can upgrade, if you find push notifications much beneficial and you think you should get a premium account. |
| Once you have subscribers you can send them your sponsored links, social profile links to like or subscribe, your YouTube video links. So you have full control. | |
| You can send unlimited push notifications in most of push notifications sites. Some might have set limits. |

#3 - PUSH ALERT
I did not put it on number 2 because I am using it, but because of its good service I gave it number two on my list. Push alert subscribers limit it 3000 but you have good service, 24 hours live chat help, full control over buttons, opt-in widgets and you have option to put a custom subscribe button in your posts. One thing that impressed me so much and brought push alert on number two of my list is that it gives you option to smartly hide and show subscribe button using their api. With their api you can show subscribe button to only those who haven't subscribe yet and hide from those who have subscribed. So it this way you can make a push notification locker for your post and only subscribed users can read full post.
I am not sure that other push notifications services in this list or others out of this list have this awesome feature or no. Kindly let me know if you know any other push service having this great feature.

Onesignal comes on number 2 because it allow you to send unlimited push notifications, 30K subscribers and a wide range of customizations and full control over everything. Also they have separate push services for web and mobile. You can also subscribe to a premium package with as much as. So it comes on number 2 of my list.
Push notifications are not uncommon now because almost all ad networks are also offering a push native ad such as propeller ads, adcash etc. Because this is also a good way now to earn money specially when you have subscribers in thousands.
Propeller ads is also the only ad network that provides push notifications service to you and you can send your personal notifications apart from ads to your visitors.
