List Building and Article Marketing - How to Effectively Integrate the Two

Written by admin on Dec 4th, 2007 | Filed under: online business

List building is of course one of the most lucrative exercises you can do online, but of course if you do not have traffic, it is almost impossible to build a list.

And of course, there is the issue of the quality of the traffic. I have tried all the junk traffic, the guaranteed traffic, to no avail.

So I use article writing, which generally brings you a higher level of traffic, and combine it with targeted squeeze pages.

This is how I do it:

1) I set up a web page that has on it only a call to action to subscribe to my list, and an opt in box. That s it. I don t try to sell anything on that web page. Nothing. No links. Nothing. That is one of the most important things here. I simply forego the possibility of an immediate sale for the value of the subscriber on my list.

2) I write articles that directly pertain to topics that would pertain to quality visitors to my web page. This is important. If you write articles that are great articles, but when the reader gets to your web page to opt in, but the opt in page has nothing for him or to do with him, he won t opt in. A waste of a visitor. If you have several topics, create a web page opt in for each topic, and put a different link on every article.

3) That s it. Web page with opt in box only, then write articles. Lots of articles.

That is one of the big keys - massive action - write lots of articles. A few articles just won t cut it. I read somewhere that the average person writes 7 articles, then stops. You need hundreds to create fulltime income, the way I see it.
