Reasons for Sending Email Newsletters to Your Blog Readers

Do you care to get in touch with your readers; the people who always love to check out the latest posts on your blog from time to time?

How will you engage your audience and send future updates? Would you consider getting in touch with them through email newsletters among the other ways you already know? To me, sending an email newsletter at specific times to readers would be a great tool to build a great blog.

Maybe you’re thinking it isn’t a necessary tool for your business. If that's your thought, then you're not helping the business grow on time.

Literally, email marketing is still one of the best and proven strategies for reaching out to readers. Some pro bloggers even implemented this as their best strategy for getting in touch with their blog readers. Building engagement must also be given the highest priority to make the most of this.

Before I start discussing the efficacy of using an email list as a tool for building up your blog, let me clear a delusion off the way.

Must it be a Newsletter all the Time?

What difference is there between "email newsletters" and "email lists"? Or do you just believe they're both the same?

We may consider an email newsletter as a detailed or an informative article you've scheduled to send out to your email subscribers weekly, bi-monthly or monthly, depending on your plan anyway.

Aside from sending such a detailed content to subscribers, there are other ways in which you can connect with your blog readers on particular occasions. Sometimes, you may consider sending a short message that contains links to a specific blog post or page on your site, or to a social media post and so on. So, it doesn't have to be a newsletter all the time.

Meanwhile, an email list is just a full list of the people who subscribed to receive the latest posts on your blog or any other update. The best way to go about this is to be frequent. Let your readers know the specific times when you send emails to them.

Great training Israel, most grateful for it, thank you. Some thoughts by way of questions:
(i) As you’re dealing with your entire audience here presumably this it an autoresponder type eM system rather than conventional?
(ii) If so, autoresponder is an additional cost to your business, at what stage do you recommend stimulating traffic by eM, from the outset or later?

Given the above, please are you able to say a little about resource requirements. One of the challenges one has in setting up business online is finding out what it is you actually require so you may budget for it. I’m looking at Mail Chimp right now to support my blogging activity, it’s free for lists <1,000 subscribers but I understand does not like affiliate programs?

Thanks for getting back, willbanks! Much appreciated! Yes, it's an autoresponder type of eM system. So far you can afford as much as possible to drive much more traffic, an email list would be excellent for your blogging success.

Though I don't use Mail Chimp to get subscribers, I've seen a lot of people who use it to get email subscribers and they all say good things about it.
