How to create an email collector In Aweber

Using Aweber for your MMO is a great choice as you can use it for free up to 500 subscribers and it is very easy to set up!

Setting up your very first autoresponder to collect email addresses can be very confusing. So first let's look over the total process and then break it down into steps.

  • Create an email forward for your Domain email address
  • The process of collection
  • Decide on Lead Magnet and create it
  • Write 3 emails for your follow-up campaign
  • Choose an autoresponder company for your business

Create the email forward for your domain email address

If your website is hosted by Wealthy Affiliate then you need to go into your emails and check that you have set up a way for your domain emails to be sent to your personal email address. The reason is so that anyone receiving an email from your business domain will see that email address and not a personal email address (more businesslike).

The other reason is that most often a personal email address will be sent to spam and never reach your new subscriber.

Process

Click on Websites > Site Manager > Site Email (top right of the page) > New Email Forward > Fill in your first name and domain and email address to forward to.

Your first step is done!

Let's look at the whole process of the collection next.

Thanks a lot Lily!!!

I have created the sign-up form with Aweber and put it on my website on the right side: https://youhealwithgrace.com/.

On desktop, it is shown normally. But today I just found out that on mobile only the title shows up (Stay connected with...) but not the frame where people put in their name and email and submit button, nothing except for the title. Please help!

Thanks a lot!
Grace

Hi Lily, Thanks for these lessons that are filled with relevant information relating to the core lessons we do at WA.
There is a lot of information that I am not familiar with and most likely I will need to revisit again. I do hope that I will be able to access to it in the future.

That is great news Donna and thanks for your lovely compliment.
You can put email collector into the training question bar and it will bring it up in the lists on that topic or you can click on my profile picture and above it will be a training button that lists all the training that I have created.

You may wish to create a folder on your computer and add any training that you want to revisit. I have one marked Wealthy Affiliate member training. Which I use for myself and to share when someone asks a question.

Have a lovely week,
Lily

Hi Lily. Thank you for sharing this training and for providing it in such an easy to read and follow way. I had to check that I had created my email redirects in Site Manager which I had done, so that was a good reminder. Of course Google sheets can also be used as a way to list all your links too. I have agonized over autoresponders and am still not willing to hand over my precious money. I do now have a GrooveFunnels account which includes and autoresponder for free, as well as landing pages, thank you pages, site templates and much more, see link below for my review.

Anyway, I think your training post is great, thank you.

You are welcome Dave. I felt I should make it easier for anyone following me as it can really chew up some time. Both Aweber and MailerLite are free to get started thank goodness.

Up till now I've used MailChimp, but I might just give Aweber a try. Jim
