Tips to Build an Email List for Your Blog
It is important to create something that people like. Your content must be compelling to get them to opt-in.
However, it doesn't necessarily have to be complicated. Find out what your niche is looking for and then give it to them. The problem you solve will help you come up with a solution that will be a real help to them.
To put it another way, a mailing list is a bomb! It's what differentiates professionals from amateurs. These five tips can help you grow your blog and get better results.
It's always good to have a few lead magnets or content upgrades so that you can try them all.
Here’s how to build an email database using lead magnets:
Think about why they needed the magnet, and then ask yourself what the next step is.
They will love content that answers their questions, assists, or simplifies their lives. Impress them, bedazzle and be kind to them. One example is to include the following in your email:
- Valuable resources
- Some tips and tricks
- Exclusive deals
- No cost gifts
It's packed with excellent advice and it's time I took notice and set up email marketing. I paid a monthly fee for 12 months to Aweber but never took advantage of it. That was prior to Aweber offering a free subscription!
I will return to your training asap.

Time can certainly get away from us.
MailerLite also offers a free service to 500 subscribers for non MMO websites. Although friends of mine prefer MailChimp as it has an auto RSS feed to send your posts out to your subscribers.
I prefer Aweber and send a newsletter out once a week.
It all takes time to get your head around and set up.
Let me know how you go.

I will let your know how it goes!
I experienced using MailChimp for some business clients when I had my secretarial business. MailChimp and I never came to good terms with each other!! That's more than six years ago.

I usually only have one welcome sequence and then I classify them and start sending my weekly newsletter. In the newsletter, I often offer a free gift or a promotion but not in everyone.
I rarely have people unsubscribe as they don't feel inundated with emails daily. Once a week seems to work for my subscribers and I keep it consistent and send them out to arrive in their email boxes on a Sunday morning so they have time to read them.

Have a lovely week.
