Do you have a Mailing List on your Blog or Website?

Postby thisnthat » 10 Jun 2015, 18:54

Do you have a mailing list set up for your site or blog? Do you get many people signing up for it?

I have one, and I put in a sign up form. What do you have? Which system do you use?

I think I have that "FeedBurner" widget on my blog. I don't think that is a mailing list though. If I remember right it just emails people every time I make a new post. Which is nice too I guess. I am not sure if there is any point in having one since I don't focus enough time into my blog.

If/when I start a blog, I would focus on making sure everyone can see when I make a new post one way or another. Mail-list signup, RSS, Twitter, Facebook all of it. The next step is creating consistent content, and that's the hard part.

you need to let people subscribe for something special, not simply for newsletter.

That's the trick, isn't it? You need to make sure everyone knows when you release content widely available, but also give a proper incentive for them to sign up for your mailing list, something beyond what you offer on your blog or website. What that is depends soley on you, I guess.

I had a landing page about technology and I collected over 20k emails in 3 months. Still have them here for some email marketing. :)

I do, and I already did a post here about it.

I highly recommend using MailMunch and creativity. I offer an ebook for my visitors, which I'm very ashamed to tell that I didn't finish it yet. So in the end it's just a promise.

But it's in the making so I know it'll be ready some day.

You could offer free advise, discount, etc, etc. If you don't offer something, they'll rarely sign up.

I do not have a mailing list but I frequently receive some update about certain sites I subscribed to. I know what those email are all about they are marketing ploys that will lead you to click and make a purchase or subscription to make the story short

I do not think that it will help if you sell these email to anyone needing them. How can I benefit as an internet marketer if I do not know the profile of these potential customers? The only thing I have is their email address which does not help at all, For a marketing campaign to become effective it should be targeted not shooting for the moon and stars and see what will happen.

I don't have any website for the moment (all my previous websites niches are dead so I left them) but I hadn't any mail list because when I wanted to do it I didn't find any good widget to add it on my website :(

like what they say" the money is in the list "
and in order to assume your financial freedom you have to build your own large e-mail list
