So you want to build a mailing list to help grow your online income. You realise a mailing list is a great way of doing it your just not sure what the best way of doing it is. The following hints are designed to help you grow your list quickly.
1. Double opt-in.
No matter what people might say double opt-in is by far the best way of building your list as your subscribers have to confirm their subscription and so prevents them using duff emails to get your info.
2. Write Articles.
Writing articles and submitting them to article directories is another way of growing your mailing list. Although it can be a slow method your subscribers are usually a lot more responsive to your mailings.Try to submit at least one 200-300 word article a day and in no time you will start seeing the benefits.
3. Give Away Free Ebooks.
Write a series of ebooks containing useful information and offer them as a free download in return for them joining your mailing list. This is a method we use to grow our list by giving away our Guide To WordPress.
4. Join Joint Ventures.
Joint ventures or jv`s for short are probably one of the fastest ways of growing your list. Sign up to upcoming jv`s and submit your free gift. Most jv`s get thousands of people looking for free products and by adding your gift for free you are looking at getting thousands of subscribers. We use jv`s all the time and have recieved over 5000 subscribers from them alone.
