Export lets you download your page as a single file. You can put that file on another website, keep it as a backup, or send it to someone. The best part: your sign-up form and your stats keep working, all on their own.
You get one file. That's it. Everything your page needs is tucked inside it — the design, the pictures, all of it. There are no extra folders to worry about and nothing else to keep with it.
You can double-click the file to open it on your computer, or put it on another website. Either way, it looks exactly like your real page.
This is the bit people don't expect. Even after you download your page and put it somewhere else, it keeps doing its job:
You don't need to touch anything or "connect" it. Download the file, put it wherever you want, and it just works.
Your downloaded page leans on ConvertPages to do the clever stuff (adding people to your list, counting your numbers). So there's one thing to know:
The form and stats keep working as long as the original page still lives in your ConvertPages account and your email tool is still connected. If you delete the page, throw it in the trash, or your account stops, the form will stop adding people and the numbers will stop counting. The page will still look perfect — it just quietly stops collecting sign-ups.
The good news: if that ever happens, you don't need to download the page again. Put the original page back (or reconnect your email tool) and it starts working again straight away.
If all you want is your page on your own web address, you probably want Custom Domains instead — everything keeps working and there's no file to deal with. Export is for when you want to take a copy of your page somewhere else, keep a backup, or hand it to someone.
There are two spots you can do it from — both give you the same file:
Make sure your page is published first. Export downloads the live version of your page, so if you've made changes, hit Publish before you export — otherwise those changes won't be in the file.
It's just one file, so it's easy to use anywhere:
This is the "one catch" from above. Your downloaded page needs the original to still be live in ConvertPages. Have a quick look at:
Fix whichever one it is and the page starts working again on its own — no need to download it again.
The file is a copy of your page from the moment you downloaded it. If you've changed the page in ConvertPages since then, just Publish your changes and export again to get a fresh copy.
