Build A Email List-Now!


So many Internet businesses  fail this absolutely ESSENTIAL step of having an email list. You have the opportunity to jump out ahead of every online business not reading this article right now by simply setting up your mailing list if you donʼt already have one.
So, donʼt have a list. Set one up. Now!!! Why?
Your email list will be one of the most important assets you have in growing your  traffic and in monetizing it and making a bunch of money.
I have made many thousands of dollars from my email list. In fact, probably over half my yearly income from my Internet business is generated from my email mailing list.  NONE of it would have happened if I didnʼt have an email list.
So, how?
Find a solution for managing your email list and sign up. Of course, the big confusion there is going to be where to put your list. Youʼre probably going to try to find some script to install to your server to manage your list. Youʼre might even try some open source freebie.
Iʼm here to save you a lot of hassle. And just trust me on this one.
Use Aweber.com. The best move I ever made for my business was to start using Aweber.
I STRONGLY recommend them.
Sign up for Aweber. They are a third-party, commercial email service. Yes, that means it is going to cost you a little money. Admittedly, it might seem like a lot of money right now because you may not be making any money yet. But, Aweber is the right solution. The thing about Aweber is that email deliverability is astronomical. Plus, setting up with them early in your career is going to save you a LOT of hassle later.
I used to manage my email list in-house (meaning on my own server). Eventually, I began to find that a lot of the emails that I sent were not even arriving to my subscribersbecause of various deliverability issues and spam black lists (even though I wasnʼt spamming). I grew a brain and decided to go with a commercial service. Aweber, however, makes you re-confirm every subscriber when you import. I lost over half my mailing list because I had to move it! Iʼm not kidding.
So, take my word for it. Set your list up in a quality place from the get-go. And Aweber is my recommendation to you.
