Top 15 Ways to Build Your Subscriber List


Email marketing can be profitable for any business, no matter what kind of product or service you offer. It is significantly cheaper than other advertising methods and, if done right, helps build loyalty and trust with customers. As a result, you generate more sales and more profits!

The foundation for successful email marketing is a targeted, permission-based email list. Marketers call contact lists their 'goldmine' because it can generate much of their sales revenue. If you've built up a list of opt-in subscribers that are qualified and interested in what you have to offer, then you've completed the first step and are on your way. Now it's time to 'mine' for gold!

Below you'll find several list-building and retention ideas that will help you get the best results from all your email marketing activities:

Provide useful, relevant content. Your visitors will not give you their email addresses just because they can subscribe to your newsletter free of charge. You have to provide unique and valuable information that will be of interest or use to them.

Add a subscription form to every page on your website. Make sure it stands out so it is easy to find. If it doesn't look cluttered, you may want to include more than one on some pages. For instance, if your opt-in form always appears in the top-left corner of your site, you may want to add one at the end of your most popular articles.

Add subscription forms to your social media pages. Make sure that you don't waste this valuable source of revenue opportunities. Integrate your sign-up forms with Facebook and more!

Make it easy for readers to sign up. The more information you request, the fewer people will opt-in. In most cases, a name and an email address should suffice. If it's not necessary, don't include it here. You can always survey them once they're customers! We do recommend that you provide a link to your Privacy Policy however.

Publish a Privacy Policy. Let your readers know that they can be confident you will not share their information with others. The easiest way to do this is to set up a Privacy Policy web page and provide the link to it below your opt-in form. (Note: If you don't have one, put the words 'privacy policy generator' into a search engine and you should be able to find a suitable form to use.)

Provide samples of your newsletters and Ezines. This lets potential subscribers review your materials before they sign up to determine if it's something they'd be interested in.

Archive past newsletters and articles. An online library of past newsletters and articles is both appealing and useful to visitors and builds your credibility as an authority. In addition, if your articles are written with good SEO techniques in mind, they can increase traffic to your website through enhanced search engine positioning.

Give gifts subscribers can actually use. Offer an opt-in bonus for joining your subscriber list! Write an ebook or provide a PDF business report, or even hire a programmer to create downloadable or web-based software. But don't limit yourself to offering gifts to opt-ins. Give them out when your readers fill out a survey, provide a testimonial, success story, or a great product idea. Let them know when they can expect the next gift offer. Everyone likes to get something for free! And if you pass out 'goodies' throughout the year, your subscribers will feel truly appreciated − and that's good for business!

Ask your subscribers to pass it on. Word of mouth is a powerful viral technique that works great with email marketing. If your subscribers find your content interesting, amusing or informative, they'll probably share it with their friends. This can be a great source of new customers, so make sure to remind them to 'pass it on'.

Let others reprint your newsletter as long as the content is not modified. If you're happy to share your content with the universe, then why not! Many webmasters and newsletter publishers are actively looking for high-quality content and, if they reprint your newsletter, you'll get new subscribers, and more traffic and links pointing to your site.

Include a 'Sign Up' button in your newsletter. If you're using plain text instead of HTML, be sure to provide a text link to your subscription page. You may feel that this is not required because the subscriber is already on your list, but remember that readers will forward your newsletters to others, or reprint them online. Make it easy for them to subscribe!

Add a squeeze page. A squeeze page has one goal − to acquire opt-ins and build your list. Think of it as a mini-sales letter to go along with your subscription or opt-in gift. It should feature a strong headline and a couple of powerful benefits that should make subscribers salivate to sign up! Once created, use a service such as WordTracker to find hundreds of targeted keywords, and promote your offer using pay-per-click advertising from Google, MSN and Yahoo. Now that should make a splash!

Include testimonials on your squeeze page. This is crucial. Put one or two strong testimonials from satisfied customers on your squeeze page. This can be in any format, but you may find that multimedia (audio or video) is more 'believable' and inspires more people to action. To further enhance believability, get permission to use actual customer names, locations and/or urls (Don't use 'Bob K, FL'). Add a note inviting others to participate. After all, it's free publicity!

Blog religiously. Blogging is a great way to communicate with prospects and potential customers, and creates a nice synergy with your email marketing. Be sure to include your newsletter sign-up form on each page of your blog. You can start a free blog at Blogger or WordPress.

Post on other blogs. Post thoughtful comments and information on similar blogs with a link to your squeeze or opt-in pages. Also comment on others' blogs through trackbacks. In most cases, your comments will be posted on their blogs with a link back to your site. This is an easy way to generate new traffic and subscribers, and get your brand out there!

When Hollywood Cringes...

I was reading a couple of blogs today and noticed an article stating that Angelina Jolie thinks Obama is a socialist. I guess motherhood has caused her to appreciate some of her father's views. I seem to remember Jon having similiar views of Obama. It's good to know that all of Hollywood hasn't adopted the views of the radical leftist.

With the media supporting the current administration, freedom and liberty is dangerously at stake. While we celebrate the many blessings God has bestowed on us during the holidays, Let's take a few minutes and thank him for living in a nation where we can come together and expell those who pervert righteousness. Thank him that this is still One Nation, Under God, With liberty and Justice for all. Thank him that we can still proclaim Jesus as the only true way into heaven. We should thank him that we live in a country where we don't have to submit to the religous views of others. Thank him for the right to choose whether or not we even want to submit to a doctor's recommendation.

We as a God Fearing nation must humble ourselves, come together and ask God for the healing of the greatest nation on earth. We don't need a President traveling from nation to nation appeasing those who have not our best interest at heart. And, contrary to what mr. president stated....we are not a muslim nation but a Christian Nation! We follow a God who controls the keys to life and death. No other people on the earth except for the followers of Jesus worship an individual to died and rose again. We serve a living God while they serve gods who are not gods and who are dead.

Not All Smart Folk are Intelligent!

I was talking to a guy I know who works as a pharmacist earlier today. I asked him what he thought about our country slowing morphing into socialism. He said, " I keep hearing that, what does all that mean? I really don't see what the big deal is."

Wake up everybody! Pray for America!

Let me post you a few recent tidbits going on in the world today.

The Russian Federation is considering the “first strike” option as part of a larger overhaul of military doctrine. The new doctrine, which is supposed to be presented to President Dmitry Medvedev later this year, is supposed to provide “flexible and timely” responses to national security threats.

Here's one for the books....Let me get this straight! Hillary Clinton meet with Russian Diplomat to obtain support of sanctions against Iranian nuclear program but instead pee'd all over her self....saying stuff like,.....ya'll come on over to the U.S. and inspect everything in the house. We Americans don't have any definite thoughts of our own about anything. Depending on what you're thinking, we probably agree. It's just these third party individuals that we need to figure out how to deal with. What ever we can do to make you happy is fine.

"On another critical issue, Lavrov declared that it would be counterproductive to threaten Iran with more sanctions over its nuclear program — as he resisted efforts by Clinton to win agreement for tougher measures should Iran fail to prove its program is peaceful."

After listening to hear speech, I started getting this strange feeling that this obscure third party entity she kept referring to is the america as we knew it. The america that doesn't want any part of all the global lies currently being fed to mankind like Jim Jones Kool-aid.

It's almost as if she was saying.....'Lookie here, If you can figure out a way for me to subjugate those who I represent and keep them under control, I'm all for it.

Yeap, this is one writer who looks at the whole picture. Check back for more!

Racist Attack Not Personal!

What follows is an article entitled: Activists protest Va. strip club's Obama banner

Sep 28, 3:16 PM (ET)By STEVE SZKOTAK

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Activists gathered outside a downtown strip club Monday to denounce as racist a banner depicting President Obama as the Joker from Batman.
"Not only is it an attack on the president, but also on all men and people of African descent," King Salim Khalfani, president of the Virginia NAACP, said of what he called "the abomination that's on the wall" outside Club Velvet.
Read Entire Article...

Contrary to the thinking of Salim Khalfani....all black men don't consider this an attack, nor do they feel the need of yet another mad, anger pimp mouthpiece. Salim believes in earnest that, "the beginning of wisdom is to know who you are!"

Real men know that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of of wisdom: and knowledge of the holy is understanding.

Angry Mob of Racist Extremists Beats Black Man at Town Hall Meeting

Angry Mob of Racist Extremists Beats Black Man at Town Hall Meeting

Missourah Blog wrote this about the incident:
What I can tell is that a guy walking 10-20 feet ahead of us said to the guys in purple shirts (SEIU members, as I understand) "you attacked him!" and "you're going to jail!" The guy who said he was attacked (light brown short sleeve collared shirt) said he was just out there selling something (I think "Don't Tread on Me" flags).

One black conservative was seriously hurt outside the event.The Post-Dispatch reported:

St. Louis County police say six people were arrested. Two of those were arrested on suspicion of assault, one of resisting arrest and three on suspicion of committing peace disturbances. Carnahan was gone when the ruckus started.

Kenneth Gladney, a 38-year-old conservative activist from St. Louis, said he was attacked by some of those arrested as he handed out yellow flags with “Don't tread on me” printed on them. He spoke to the Post-Dispatch from the emergency room of the St. John's Mercy Medical Center, where he said he was waiting to be treated for injuries to his knee, back, elbow, shoulder and face that he suffered in the attack.

Gladney, who is black, said one of his attackers, also a black man, used a racial slur against him before the attack started. “It just seems there's no freedom of speech without being attacked,” he said.

Pasadena Again!

It's really hard to determine whether or not protesters have a legitimate grievance against Joe Horn who has been cleared for use of deadly force in the recent. The waters are somewhat murky for several reasons. 1. The alleged perpetrators appeared to look black. 2. Local law enforcement advised Mr. Horn to stay inside. 3. Texas Law allows use of deadly force in this type of situation to defend one's property or the property of others.

Yet one only wonders what would have happened to a non-white under the same circumstances. Even more sad is the lack of value placed on human life.

Racial Cry has Stinch of Phonasthenia

I don't hang out in Pasadena, Texas. I don't hang with folks who do.....I don't stop when passing thru. Let's say I was fore-warned years ago. Back in the early 90's, some friends and I were on our way to watch one of our other friends, who was a boxer, fight in boxing match. The friend who was scheduled to fight was a white cat some of you may know. His nickname was Termite. Anyway, on the way to the fight we were pulled over by the Pasadena Police. I guess four black guys riding around in their city was too much for them to handle. They approached our vehicle as if we were suspected murderers. They questioned us as to who, what, when, where, how. They then asked us how long we were expecting to be in their city. How long were we gonna be in their city? I was amazed at their altisonant attitude and their blatant view of young black men as proleterian to say the least.

So how has this great city changed over the years?

I was flipping thru the T.V. news stations a few days ago when I noticed a breaking headline referencing something that had happened in Pasadena. This judge was speaking about a case in which he was going need to sit on the jury. His reasoning for wanting to sit on the jury was, as he stated it, "To insure that the defendants involved received a fair trial leading to an acquittal". Maybe I'm wrong but, is it really legal for a juror to discuss an upcoming trial on T.V.?

Here's an excerpt about the case from a recent article:

A woman who was driving by during the arrest testified that she called 911 to report that officers were beating a man, later identified as Gonzales.

Click here for entire story........p.s. The officers, recently acquitted, are recovering from the whole traumatic set of events. Oh! the burden of dealing with the litigious dead.

The True Philogynist, Ya gotta luv em!

So the view window on my cell phone went on the blink. Life as a brother is unbearable without a cell phone. So I dragged myself out in a horrible storm to the cell phone repair shop. So here I am standing in the store drenched and soaking wet when one of the white store workers walked in not even acknowledging me with a hello or, how are you? Then young man promptly went about his daily tasks. Then out of no where entered a single white female. The store attendant raced to her aid with break neck speed. I probably should have been slighted. Instead, I used the situation to humor myself. After speaking to one of the other store reps and dropping my phone off for service, I turned to exit the building. As I walked past the questionable store attendant I turned toward him and stated, "I waited 10 minutes soaking wet for help and no one noticed me. But, as soon as the nice looking lady came in, you ran over to help her." The attendant quickly turned red and started making excuses for his behavior. He hadn't expected me to point out his obvious favoritism. I then replied, "Don't worry, I'm not upset at you. Back in the day.....I was quite the philogynist as well."


So Hillary stated that she's staying in the race just in case Obama is assassinated. In my opinion, that's a comment which should surely harm her bid for Vice Presidency. History contains numerous examples of Vice Presidents who jumped the Gun. For instance.....why was Kennedy shot in Johnson's home town? Why did Bush meet with members of the Hinkley prior to Reagans assassination attempt? Bad timing? Dumb Luck? Coincidence? Why wasn't the officer who left his post during the Lincoln assassination disciplined? Why was he returned to duty at the White House?

Maybe Hillary's comments are meant as a glimpse into her lucifugous mind or a grim warning to her true intentions.

The Black Advantage and Token Whites

So the brother tried to bum rush me like a pithecanthropus trapped in the thralls of a drug induced geek attack. As he spewed out his poison and verbal onslaught, I though about Gary Busey who long ago prophesied that someday there would be a real advantage to being black. He also stated that he would position himself to be a token white man. My mind wandered off during the discussion. I'm learning that vile communication is rather my bete noire. The refuge and memory of a past joke was a funny happy place to be at the time.

So the President accused Obama of appeasement. Hmmmm..... I think Busey may have a point. Here's a thought. Maybe the rest of the world might not be all together mad at black men. Maybe they might even be willing to talk and negoitiate with a black president who employs some Gary Buseys in his administration. Maybe America's view of the ranking of one's ability based on the color of one's skin is problematic. One thing for sure, regardless of Obama's blandiloquence, he's gonna need some token whites. The sooner the better.

Lazy Niggers and White Trash Honkies

It's was a warm Sunday morning and I was sitting in church daydreaming when the Pastor started his sermon with the following words: "I'm so tired of Lazy Niggers and White Trash Honkies that I don't know what to do!" Boy, did that get the church's attention.

I sometimes wonder how the media would have reacted to my Pastor's message. It definitely wasn't politically correct. It might have been viewed by some as being racist or eristical. With the proper editing it could have been used to cause a string of city riots. I looked around the room full of soigne church members all with stunned expressions. The only member who was unaffected and seemed to lack sentience was our resident lycanthrope who often introduced himself by saying, "I like cats".

I learned many life lessons from my good friend and pastor. I would go as far as honor him with the title of S.T.D., not the worldly definition but Sacrae Theologiae Doctor. I learned that one must remain longanimous in one's pursuit of knowledge. I learned that God rains on the just and the unjust. I learned that everyone who looks like a brother is not necessarily a brother. I learned that some people who don't look like brothers will stick closer to you than a brother.

Personally, I felt this to be my favorite pastor's greatest message. The essence of the message dealt with breaking stereotypes and class restrictions. The pastor stated that one must disconnect from mental, physical, and verbal ownership of one's natural bloodline and be joined to the death, burial and ressurection of Jesus Christ by his blood.  The natural bloodline so ridden with anger, resentment, disease, generational limitations and of course death must be left on the cross with the lamb slain from the foundations of the world.  This natural bloodline passed down from the first man adam must be reckoned dead, buried and ineffective. 

This was no ordinary pastor and this was no ordinary message. In the course of my time working with this pastor I had the opportunity to watch first hand as he raised individuals from the grips of death. I know individuals who are perfectly healed this day by the work of God thru the hands of this great man of God.  I remember traveling with him to a church meeting.  After we left the meeting, we stopped a restaurant for a short time, to grab a bite to eat.  When we left the restaurant and walked outside we discovered that a tornado had blown thru the neighborhood blowing down trees and buildings all around us.

What was interesting about my pastor and personal friend......this man, that I held an tremendous amount of love and respect for.....this man, full of the Holy Ghost and operating in all the gifts of the Spirit of God,......this man, and his powerful, timely message about lazy niggers and white trash honkies, was that..............this man was a white man who had a real heart for God's people especially blacks.

Voting Black!

I'm voting black!

Exit us Ac ta Pro bat....the outcome justifies the act. So what's the outcome that I'm looking for? It's simple, it's that black youth can believe in ascension to the highest office in the land. Black youth of America don't give a doggone hoot about current issues. The role model on a Black American in the Executive Office is worth the gambit of any unforeseen damages caused his political ideology.

Gone are the days of free elections or the excessive power of the executive branch. Today's executive office can't even stop the system from starving a poor girl to death in Florida, even though his brother was the Governor. What happened to erring on the side of life? Today's political system has become to lugubrious to bear.

Why on earth would Obama, just because of his race, automatically be a viable candidate? Why Not? Who actually studies the issues or researches the histories of each candidate?

"Geraldine Ferraro, a onetime Democratic vice presidential nominee and current Clinton fundraiser, continued to insist today that she is being unfairly criticized for comments on Barack Obama that implied the Illinois senator has done well in the presidential race because he is black." Read Entire Article

Revision....Ferraro resigns (see video)

Many of the anti-Obama peddlers state that his followers are mindless, radical, socialistic, dull eyed, non-thinking voters. And Obama merely appears to their expectation of more government handouts. Yet it was Hillary that dashed to Louisiana to support Tavis Smiley's "State of the Black Union."

In my opinion, this type of manipulative thinking is no longer helping the opposing campaigns. It may cause the lumpen proletariat group of black followers in the various camps to awaken and realize that they have been smitten by Lillith or worse yet a Grand Wizard, since we're name calling.

In a perfect world political leaders are placed into office to herald and carry out the causes of their constituents. Get real! We live in Kakotopia, USA and there's a big show taking place on the world stage. The show is called The Raping of America. The leaders of today have one goal in mind which is to desiccate the minds and spirits of the general populace. Mammon is the force and motivation behind the New World Order. America is like a woman of the night but, unlike most women who work the red light district for hire, she pays her suitors.

So I'll cast my vote for the black youth of America, the political M.J. I hope he makes it to the hoop.

peace!

Cornell University Claims Whites Are Genetically Weaker Than Blacks

This should really stir up the pot. A whole new level of black supremacy.

Cornell University has released a controversial study that will accomplish literally nothing more than sowing more discontent among the races, and serve as yet another recruiting tool for white supremacist groups. So let's all pat Cornell on the back, and bask in the racially charged anti-glory that is their latest contribution to useless science.

According to the writer, the only thing proven by the group's study is that the students don't know how to conduct a study. Maybe the actual study is that of determining populace reactions to a skewed report.

Black Krytonite!

By Darryl James

"Many whites flatter themselves with the idea that the Negro male's lust and desire for the white dream girl is purely aesthetic attraction, but nothing could be farther from the truth."--Eldridge Cleaver, from Soul on Ice
One of the leading reasons given for the paucity of desirable single Black men is the competition single Black women face with white women. While certain sections of large cities and the false society of television may give weight to that premise, there are some other things to consider.
