Building a powerful email list through free methods is not only possible; it can also help you succeed in your internet marketing campaign. One free method of building lists is by creating a blog. Then, at the bottom of your posts, place a link that goes to the subscription box on your landing page. Another way is to post comments on different blogs. This of course means that you should choose two or three blogs that you can see and crawl. After a month, post comments on certain topics and include a web link to your site. Of course, please be respectful and follow proper internet etiquette when it comes to posting comments.
Posting on forums is another free list building method you can try. Check out different forums related to your niche and lurk on the scene for a few days. Try to learn from people and understand what they are talking about. Also try to understand how the forum is run and how forums are operated by moderators or administrators. When you’re ready to post comments, go ahead and give it a try. If you have more information on the topic on your site, you can try putting a web link, or you can just include the link in your signature.
Writing articles and creating videos are also great ways to build a list. They can also be free. For articles, you can create 300-400 word articles about your niche. You can also consider keyword density. You can write tips, useful or relevant information and the like. You can submit your articles to article directories like Idea Marketers and Ezine. You can put your links in the resource box. As for the videos, they are not that difficult to create. You can use free screenshot, audio recording and presentation software. You can try using Open Office, Audacity and Cam Studio for your videos and then upload them to YouTube. You can place your web link in the opening and ending credits.
There are other free list building techniques you can use to help you with your email marketing. In addition to getting a large number of potential subscribers through these methods, links can also help develop your site and your products or services.
