Internet Marketing Ideas

 The larger your Opt In list is, the better you can manage your list, the more frequently you keep in touch with your list and provide them with valuable information, then the more likely you are to sell your product and service.

An Opt In List is a collection of Email addresses you receive from people who are interested in your product or service and ask to join your auto responder list.

You can build your Opt In List using free techniques or you can pay a third party to expand your list.

Free techniques to build an Opt In list include writing articles. Although this may take a little more time and effort, your articles can be a very effective method for getting new subscribers to you. You can write articles focusing on your topic or articles that contain some of the information in your product. It is the useful information readers find in your article that will inspire them to look you up and see how they can find more useful information.

You can then post part of the article on a blog you are writing or submit the article to different directories for publication. You can also post the article as a separate page on your own website. When submitting your articles to other sites for publication, be sure in include your name and a link to your web site.

If you like the idea of free list building techniques, think how much your potential customers may also want something of value that is free. Write short, informative Ebooks or special reports on your topic or on the topic of an affiliate program that you are marketing. Offer them as incentive to those who OptIN to your home page.

Develop a mini Ecourse, a shortened version of your complete product or service. Break your product up into several sessions. You may want to give away a few secrets with every lesson but keep some secrets in reserve. Remind subscribers that there is more information on the full version of your product and include links to your product page on your web site. Download your mini course into your auto responder program to save you time.

Pop Up ads are effective for collecting Email addresses but only use them on your own site. Used on your own site, Pop Up ads let people know they can sign up for your list and get the information they want almost immediately.

Build a list on Facebook. Join forums and participate in some of the discussion. Leave your link to your Opt In page. When you just leave a link to your website or blog, you will not be capturing the name and Email addresses of people who clicked on your website looking for more information on a particular topic.

Internet Marketing

search engine optimization

By Cathy Goodwin

 Internet marketers typically work to create a large opt-in list. Once your list has agreed to accept your emails, you can send ezines, newsletters and special offers targeted directly to them.

“Linda,” a new Internet marketer, grew her list easily. But she found her list was not helpful in generating leads. “Every time I make an offer,” she said, “I lose about 10% of my list. Most of my names come from pay-per-click. I”m afraid they will all disappear if I keep selling.”

Linda held a common set of false marketing beliefs. “A big list is a good list. Keep adding names and you will get richer.” But in fact it”s the quality of your list that matters, not the numbers. Some marketers with lists of 1000 will consistently out-perform competitors with lists that are several times larger.

To get a high-performance list, recruit subscribers through article marketing, teleseminars and social marketing. Choose methods that reach members of your target market who will be genuinely interested in what you have to offer.

For instance, if you offer a service related to dog training, choose joint ventures and social marketing groups related to dogs and pets. Resist the temptation to participate in programs that are not reaching your own market. Offer a free Report with a title that directly addresses the most painful problem of your target market.

You can also recruit subscribers through pay-per-click. Typically marketers find these subscribers tend to grab the free report and then leave the list.

Once you get a quality list, you have to create expectations right from the get-go. I call this step “training” your list. You have to let them know that you are not sending them e-zines and info because you are a nice, kind, generous person. You will make offers in every single issue of your e-zine. You will send occasional solo notices.

As soon as you clarify your status, you will see names disappear. In my experience, most will go away after you first make the change to selling consistently.

But those who remain will appreciate your value. They”re also savvy enough to know you”re not in a social relationship. You”re promoting your business.

Okay, a couple of times a year, you might send out a good-will message with hot tips or holiday wishes. Your readers will appreciate what you send. But I”m willing to bet most of them won”t care if you throw in a special offer, too.
