Post to Blogs and Forums to Build Opt-In lists




List building is maybe the most vital part of email marketing. You must have an opt-in list and building a list is far superior to buying a list.



In order to build an impressively long opt-in list, you first must find the people who are the best prospects to be members of your list.



Fortunately, you can find many of them gathered together on blog and forum sites that have topics related to the products or services that you sell.



They gather on blog and forum sites to discuss mutual goals or mutual problems that your product or services can help with.



A word of caution: posting to blogs and forums is a time consuming task so you need to restrain yourself a little bit when deciding which of these blog and forum sites to join and participate in.



Remember that for each site that you join, you are going to need to make posts of 300 or more words 3 to 5 times each and every week.



That is a task that requires at least 1 hour per day per forum or blog. If you join 4 blogs, it will be safe to assume that you are going to spend about 4 hours a day for 3 to 5 days each week.



While posting to blogs and forums is a high-cost advertising technique in terms of time, it costs absolutely nothing in dollars. You will be speaking directly to your very best prospects.



You must never join a blog or forum and immediately start advertising. This will get you tossed out on your ear.



You use a signature tag that includes a link to your website and then you treat the other members like new neighbors that you want to get to know.

Do Male Enhancements Really Work?

What ExtenZe Does and Does Not There is no shortage of male enhancement products available to today's consumer. They promise everything from penis extension to boosted sex drive. Some products work and are offered by solid companies with long records of quality products and happy customers.

Article Writing and the Email Marketer

You have got to have an opt-in list if you are an email marketer. There simply is no other choice. After Congress passed the CAN SPAM Act and it became law in 2004, you cannot legally send bulk marketing emails without the express consent of the recipients. If you do, you will be fined heavily. The law provides fines for up to $11,000 per incident. So...there you have it! You either have an opt-in list or you will have to find another way to make a living. One of the best ways to build your opt-in list is to write and market articles. Each time an article that you have written and submitted to an article bank for use by other website owners and ezine publishers, every name on their lists are exposed to a link to your website. If the articles are good and filled with relevant information, they can produce much traffic and many new opt-in subscribers. It isn't hard to write a marketable article. Marketable articles are short...only 300 to 400 words. The key ingredients...

Are You Successful Because of God, or Is It You?

I just read this article published by Marketo, titled: "The God Complex and the Importance of Trial and Error, " written by Jason Miller, it discussed a scenario where a company which wants to make detergent discovers how using a process of trial and error. The gist of the article summizes to create the theory which states do successful people have a God complex in which they refuse to believe, no matter the situation, that their way of thinking, their ideas are wrong regardless of the "complexity of the situation." Let me tell you why that article sticks out to me. I have been marketing successfully and unsuccessfully at times on the internet since 2001. I've had my super successful times as well as times when I've just plain walked away from projects. There was a period where internet marketing programs paid my bills for three years and financed lavish vacations to the Caribbean and other wonderful places many people...
