"The Power Of CGI Forms" (Part 2)

This is the second in a series of "How-to-do-it"
articles for the beginner or pro online. It outlines
the uses of CGI Forms, and why you need them
now.

In our previous article we discussed the power
of using autoresponders to automate many of
your daily tasks.

Capturing the e-mail addresses of those who send
for your autoresponder is one of the many benefits
of using them.

This article details the use of CGI forms, another
great time-saving device that every serious
webmaster needs to incorportate into their online
business efforts.

Forms do more than allow you to get the customer's
e-mail address. You may also get their name,
mailing address, occupation, etc. In fact, you
are limited only by your imagination as to the
information you may ask for on your form.

Here is a simple example of form on one of my
sites:

Forms have a vaiety of potential uses. Among
them are:

-- Sales
--Requests for information
--Surveys
--Questionnaires
--and many other potential


uses

Learning how to set up and use your own forms
is a completely different animal that we will
discuss in our next article in this series.
