How
to Add 1,000 Subscribers To Your Ezine Every Month By Terry
Dean
I keep getting asked
week after week from individuals online exactly what my key is to
internet success. How can they duplicate my business in a few easy
steps?
To their amazement,
my answer is ALWAYS the same. If you want to follow my success and
the success of many of Internet marketers, you absolutely must have
your own ezine.
Whereas I used to
suggest that you have an ezine...I now see a day coming where you
will be absolutely creamed by your competition online if you don't
publish one! It is a requirement to success online.
"What is
an ezine?"
An ezine is simply
a newsletter which you publish online and send out to your subscribers
by email. Some are published monthly. Others are sent out weekly.
A few committed souls publish their ezines every single day!
It can be about
any type of industry, but it must focus on some aspect of your business.
If you sell Web Hosting Services, you need to do one that has something
to do with that aspect...maybe Web Design, Traffic Building Tools,
etc. If you sell mailing lists, do a newsletter on how to choose
effective mailing lists OR on how to prepare direct mail packages.
Do one that focuses on your business.
In general, ezines
are published with a main article (And sometimes a second article
or section), classified ads, and then specials available only from
you the publisher. The principle reason you must own your own ezine
is the fact that if you are giving GOOD quality information every
time your newsletter comes out, they will begin to get to know you
and be willing to purchase products or services from you.
You might say, "But
Terry, I can't write!"
This is NOT a good
enough excuse to allow your online business to fail. Hundreds of
writers on the internet are looking for people to publish their
articles! All you have to do is find them...Let them do the writing
and you take care of the publishing (simply sending an email to
a listserver)!
It is Easy to
Publish a Newsletter...
Publishing your
newsletter/ezine is a piece of cake. All you do is set up a listserver.
You can get a small one that only hold 1,000 names from Listbot
at http://www.listbot.com
for Free to start you off.
Once you have your
listserver in place, all you do is send an email to the listserver
address and it distributes your newsletter out to all of the subscribers.
It also automatically stores your Opt-In mailing list and removes
undeliverables for you without you even having to be involved.
How to Add 500
Subscribers to Your Ezine This Week...
Having your own
ezine doesn't do you any good if you don't have subscribers. So,
here is a quick formula to get you started off adding new subscribers
quickly from day one.
1) Write a Good
Description for Your Ezine
You will need a
15 word description, a paragraph description, and a full page description
(This is use for NEW-LIST). Remember to use good ad copy techniques
for writing these..."What's in it for Me?" are the 5 key
words of advertising.
What will your subscribers
get out of your ezine? Write good killer ad copy for this. Use bullets
to describe the benefits people will be getting out of your newsletter.
Don't just through together a quick ad to get one out there. Write
Killer Ad Copy...
2) Place A Subscription
Form on Every Page of Your Web Site.
Your subscribers
should start here. Make sure that every page on your site gives
them the opportunity to sign up on your newsletter. If you take
a look at my site a http://www.bizpromo.com
you will find that my Newsletter subscription form is the first
thing you see on my site. You should do the same for maximum subscribers!
3) Use NEW-LIST
to get your first base of subscribers...
NEW-LIST is a mailing
list dedicated to showing all of the New ezines which come out.
By writing a killer ad for it, you can receive anywhere from 50
- 500 subscribers within a week. It should always be on the starting
points for any new ezine.
The reason I want
you to subscribe to the list first is because you will begin to
get a good idea of how to create your ad for it by watching and
reading through all of the posts. DO NOT take this list lightly,
because a good Killer Ad can produce amazing results for you for
FREE.
4) Submit Your
Ezine to all of the directories of ezines on the web...
Below is a small
list of some of the directories which allow you to place your ezine
listings. Make sure to list your newsletter in all of them using
good descriptions full of benefits. This is by no means a complete
list of every ezine directory on the web, but it is a good place
to get you started.
Many of us have
learned that the easiest and cheapest way to build our subscriber
base is by trading ads with other publishers. Be aggressive in this.
Constantly email other publishers and offer to trade ads with them.
You can get FREE advertising to hundreds of thousands of prospects
by simply trading advertising space among one another!
Currently, we are
preparing a list of publishers who would like to trade ads in other
ezines...If you are interested in being a member of this list, please

It Doesn't Have
to Cost You A Lot Of Money to Build Your Business
None of the techniques
above will cost you money to build your ezine list, but they will
produce results. You can build your list, but it will take you doing
the steps above, plus coming up with some of your own ideas.
