The Attention Grabber is designed to make sure all your visitors know about the things most important to you.
Grab your visitor’s attention and get them to sign up for your email list, or tell them about a specific page they should visit.
This is a free alternative to <a href="http://www.hellobar.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">HelloBar</a>, a SaaS which charges based on the number of clicks the bar receives. If your bar receives 7,500 clicks per month, HelloBar would cost you $50/month.
Little bars like these are cropping up all over the Web (e.g., at Neil Patel’s <a href="http://www.quicksprout.com" rel="nofollow ugc">QuickSprout</a>), and it’s no wonder why—they do a fantastic job of getting your visitors to complete your goals for them.
Features

<ul>

<li>Customize the look and feel of the bar (background color, button color, etc.), and</li>
<li>Responsively show or hide content to fit comfortable at the top of the user’s screen.</li>
</ul>
