Building My List With A Baby Competition!
I have spent a little bit of time building my email lists on my websites. For my online marketing website I wrote an ebook to entice readers to subscribe and I get subscribers dribbling in over time.
On my addiction website I wrote an ebook and I give away a preview of it on my website to subscribers.... and yes I get subscribers dribbling in all the time.
Both those websites are my hobbies and to be honest I barely even write on those websites at the moment.
My mommy blog is where I build my list in a big way. If anyone wants to know moms go crazy for baby competitions and it is an insanely awesome way to build your list.
If you have a website in any parenting niche I highly recommend that you give a baby competition a go.
For the last 2 months I have been getting in up to 50 subscribers a day.... oh and I make good money from my baby competitions too so it is such an awesome way to market your website!
I get traffic, leads and income!

Cool method. Thanks for sharing Lynne. May I ask how you make money from the competitions you run? Thanks
With Voting :) Moms can vote on the website, via sms (text) or (my favourite) via Paypal.
And yes I make get paid some of the sms income by the company I use, about 1/3 of it.
I get companies in my country to sponsor prizes and the total prize value is currently over R6000 which is over $450.
It is quite a bit of admin to run but it is worth it for the income, the leads and of course the traffic that it generates to my website.
Well it is simple, in the competition terms I state that every person entering will be added to my newsletter!
Or do you want to know how I run the competition itself?
yes please Lynne, I have been offered a prize by a shop that has offered a discount to all my subscribers. so far I only have 4 but I would like to start a competition and try and improve my subscribers
Hi Lynne, Could you please inbox me the same. I would love to know more too , looks very interesting.
