1. Rename your old HTML file to PHP - Don't be scared of PHP, it's just HTML that allows you to add server code.
2. Add the follow lines to the very top of your page in the code view;

3. Go to the section where you want to add your visitor's name on your page and in the code view add this;

4. Save and upload your page to your site and test it. Here's one a did earlier..

Replace Fred Flinstone with any name and you'll see that the page dynamically updates itself. Tip: The %20 is there to represent a space.
5. You're probably thinking how you get your visitor's name displayed on the page? Well, assuming you've already got an email list, you'll be familiar with using personlized tags such as {!firstname} and [[firstname]] depending on the program your using.
Knowing this you can now replace the name with your personalization tag so it would look like this if you're using Aweber;
http://aarondankersblog.com/test/?name={!firstname}
Now that you know this, you can start applying it to all your sales pages. Every time your autoresponder sends your visitor to your sales page, you can do so whilst passing on their information to the site, which will look very impressive for the reader.
Note though, has a much more powerful effect in non-internet marketing niches, such as lose weight, build muscle, gardening, parenting, home security, traveling etc.. because they won't be as aware to the tricks that we marketers get up to :)
What else can you do with this trick?
Well just of the top of my head..
- Display Name and Email addresses in tell-a-friend forms to make it easy for your visitor to refer friends to their website!
- Generate personalized Email promos and affiliate links for your affiliates!
and much more..
Hope you like this little trick!
