~ USE FREE FORUM POSTING ~

This is a great way to get not only more Subscribers for your Newsletter but recognized as an Expert in your Field. By posting helpful suggestions in Forums in your Market, you will get a lot of good attention.

I'm not going to get into a whole lot about this Subject as it is pretty easy to get started.

1) Find Forums in your Niche.

2) Read some of the back posts and see who the boss, who posts good Content and what the Rules are.

3) Start posting with Informative Information and include your little Newsletter Byline at the end of your post or in your Signature File.

What most people have a problem with is not Writing Good Posts, but finding the Forums to post in.

Now that Work is done for you. Just enter the Topic your Newsletter is on into the Website address below and you will find all the Forums you could possibly want on those Subjects.

~ ARCHIVE YOUR NEWSLETTER COPIES ~

Sometimes people are hesitant to give any sort of Information away over the Internet, especially there Email Addresses even if what you are offering is free, due to Spam.

But if you allow people to read your Back Issues without having to sign up for your Newsletter, this will show them what type of Relevant Content you do Write and will make them want to join.

You would think having your Newsletter Issues Archived would cut back on Subscribers wanting to Subscribe because they can get it without giving their Email Address away, but this is not true.

What you do is tell them on the Website that Newsletter Subscribers get each issue 2 weeks before Non ~ Subscribers.

~ USING MP3'S TO GET MORE ONLINE SUBSCRIBERS ~


Doing Audio Interviews with Experts in your field also is a great idea to get more subscribers. I am not going to get into how to create Audio Products as that is a whole other book, but interviewing Experts over over the phone and recording it on MP3 will get your *Newsletter Splashed* all over the Internet, especially in fields other then Internet Marketing where people don't expect to get this much quality information for FREE.

When you take Marketing tactics from the Internet Marketing field and apply them into other Niche Markets, where they have never been seen before, you will get noticed more.

Everything has been done in the Internet Marketing Field, we are all immune to even the most brilliant Marketing tactics as we see them almost everyday, but other Niche Markets eat these things up.

Creating Audio Interviews is not hard at all equipment wise and finding Experts to interview is a piece of cake.

Do you know how I find Experts in any field almost instantly?

Well most FAQ pages at FAQS.Org/faz/have who its written by and an e-mail address for them. These guys are obviously knowledgeable in their fields, and they would make great Experts to interview.

Tell them you want to interview them because you have read information they've written and it was great and you think your subscribers would appreciate the information.

Most will do this without charging you a cent if you are outside the Marketing Field, they will just get a thrill out of being interviewed.

Once you have these interviews, tell all the Publishers you have been in contact with recently that you have this great set of MP3'S, just completed and you want to offer them for FREE to their Lists.

Setup a section on your Website with the download link to these MP3's and also put a subscribe form near them for your Newsletter and you will be surprised how many people will sign up AFTER they listen to your MP3's.

Don't make it so these people have to sign up for your Newsletter before they get the MP3's.

~ USE A SALES LETTER TO GET SUBSCRIBERS ~

There is something I have seen a lot of lately.

People using Direct Sales Letters to get new subscribers for their Newsletter.

They are actually creating a Sales Letter like they would for a product they are selling, and at the end of it, instead of an order button, they have a subscribe here button.

You would not even know by reading the Sales Letter that its not for a product until the very end.

This gives people the WOW factor. You make your Newsletter sound so valuable that when they find out it is FREE, they go "WOW ~ I can't believe they are giving all this information away for FREE".

This is pure Marketing at it's best, and it is exciting. Marketing is meant to be exciting, just like life.

~ WRITE FREE ARTICLES ~

While it's a given, you will put your Newsletter subscribe Address in your Resource Box at the end of the Article, this is not the best way to get people to subscribe to your Newsletter.

The best way is to write a few FREE E-Courses that people can subscribe to via a Autoresponder and weave the Links into your Article. Here is what I mean, and I can tell you know, "HARDLY ANYONE IS DOING THIS"!

Let's say you have a Newsletter on Ice Fishing and you are in the middle of writing a few Articles to send out for Publication. Here is what I would do. . .

I would go to Aweber.com, buy a Monthly subscription to their service and then start Writing up 2 or 3 FREE E-Courses on all things to do with Ice Fishing and plug them into my Autoresponder.

Now why would I want to do this if I really want people to subscribe to my Newsletter? Well, Article Writing has come under attack by people who believe cutting people's Article Bylines out is acceptable. They just steal the content as their own. So instead of trying to fight these people every day of the week, I have accepted this is going to happen and I made provisions for it, in fact, it probably works in my favor.

So in my Article ~ while I am writing it, I would let the readers know there is this great E-Course for FREE, they can sign up for. I would not mention it was mine. I would just weave it into my Article and it looks like I am providing them with a Great FREE Resource. I would then provide them with a Autoresponder Link and how to sign up. Also remember that when you write your Resource Box for your Article, you do not have to get them to go to a Webpag
e, to sign up for your Newsletter.

You can put your Newsletter subscribe information in your Resource Box like this. . .

"To Get More Information on how to catch more Bass on a weekly basis, sign up for our Newsletter by sending a blank e-mail to:
youremail@address-here.com"

~ SIMPLE LIST BUILDING STRATEGIES ~

~ Buy Leads with Co-Registration ~
Quick and easy way to get Subscribers, but not the best way. That is how I describe Co-Registration. Some Marketers swear by it and have great results, others fail and have to throw out the entire list they brought, because it is riddled with fake addresses, spam complaints and basically freebie seekers.
So, what is Co-Registration?
Basically it is building lists by buying Subscribers from a 3rd party service. Here is how Dr. Ralph Wilson put it. . .
"Co-Registration is a widely-used approach to increase the size of your Email Lists. Co-Registration works this way: After completing a Subscription Form or upon leaving a Website, visitors are invited to Subscribe to one or more Ezines. If yours are listed amoung these, and the Site gets a substantial amount of Traffic, you will begin to receive a number of Subscriptions".
Have a look at the best Co-Registration Companies to see what I mean.
What you do is pay a fee to these Companies per Subscriber. So everytime they supply you with a new lead, you pay them a fee. Usually around .15 cents to $1 depending on the Niche Market and if you want double opt-in or single opt-in. Always go for double op-in if you can.
The best way to make money from these types is to first give something away for free. Build trust with your Subscribers. Sign them up for a free course, give them some bonus products. If anyone asks to be removed from your list, just do it! Don't argue with them ~ ever.

That's the quickest way to get your Newsletter shut down.

HOW TO BUILD A SUBSCRIBER LIST FOR FREE…

1. Open up a ListHero account here: http://www.ListHero.com/28866

2. Open up a free autoresponder account here (this is to help you manage your new list of subscribers and works together with ListHero:http://www.getresponse.com/orderfree.html

3. Open up a Google account here (this is so you can use all of Google’s free tools which include a simple and very easy to use website builder:https://www.google.com/accounts/NewAccount

4. Go here and collect as many articles as you can on a subject you’re interested in:http://GoArticles.com

5. Go here and create a content rich website by adding those articles you found earlier…http://pages.google.com

6. Create a newsletter you can publish once a week. Recently I posted an article here that gives you a newsletter template you just add your own content to: http://listheroblog.com/index.php/list-building/where-can-i-get-newsletter-templates-from/

You must give people value when they join your list of subscribers and a newsletter helps you to do this. All you do is use the articles you found on GoArticles as content.

7. Add your ListHero squeeze box to every page of your new website. The best position for your ListHero squeeze box (how you collect subscribers) is to put in the middle of every article on every page.

8. Now you have a ListHero account to help you build your list quicker and bigger, you have an autoresponder, you have a website containing free valuable content. All you need next is traffic.
Whatever you do do NOT buy traffic and never, ever buy lists of subscribers! Doing this is a big waste of money if you’re just starting out.

The easiest way of getting free traffic to your new website is to use this free software program here called Comment Sniper:http://www.commentsniper.com/

What it does is it tells you when new blogs have had posts made to them on any subject you chose. You then go to that blog and be the first to post a comment about that post. By being the first people will see your comment before others, plus they get to see the link to your new website.

It’s not going to give you a massive amount of traffic in days, but if you use the software regularly and post comments on other people’s blogs regularly you will see great results over time.

You’ll get links to your website (which increase your positioning in the search engine) you’ll get people visiting your website and you’ll build credibility because of what you say in your comments to the blog posts you find.

This software isn’t anything to do with surfing for hits, that’s a BIG FAT waste of time, this software isn’t a chance to spam other blogs… it’s a rock solid way of building up a steady supply of targeted traffic to your website… which in turn builds your list.

So there you have it in 8 simple steps, how to build a subscriber list for free!

Obviously there are more details involved in what I’ve explained above and would probably make a great training course but these 8 steps do point you in the right direction. You’ll need to figure out the stuff in between yourself.
