At first, I was mainly concerned with using my lists to bring repeat<br \/>\nvisitors to my site and to build up some kind of relationship.<\/p>\n<p>I soon discovered one of the most effective ways of doing this was simply<br \/>\noffering quality information in the form of a free ebook, video or newsletter<br \/>\nin return for the contact email.<\/p>\n<p>Your site&#8217;s visitors would opt-in to your email list in order to get quality<br \/>\ninformation from you, which gave you the chance of offering follow-up information<br \/>\nin order to fully engage your subscribers with your site.<\/p>\n<p><b>This doesn&#8217;t have to be complicated or a lot of work.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I believe one of my most effective list building systems is where visitors can<br \/>\nopt-in to get discount coupons on high-end products. When merchants give discounts,<br \/>\nspecial sales&#8230; I simply send out an email to these subscribers with the offers.<\/p>\n<p><b>Ridiculously simple but it works.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Another version of this list building system is where I give 6 or 7 follow-up<br \/>\ninformation emails on a product or service. Within those emails are links<br \/>\nto a discount page where I place all my discounts and sales for that particular<br \/>\nproduct or service.<\/p>\n<p><b>Again simple yet very effective.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>But things have changed in the field of list building. I am still doing those<br \/>\ntechniques above and will continue to use them because they work.<\/p>\n<p><b>But&#8230;<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There are now new programs on the web which make it much easier to build<br \/>\nyour list of contacts.<\/p>\n<p>When I think of all the time it took me to just get 10,000 subscribers, I am kinda<br \/>\nfreaked out that some kid can put a few music videos on YouTube and in less than<br \/>\na month has over 160,000 subscribers.<\/p>\n<p>The same thing with Twitter, where building a list of 100,000 followers is fairly<br \/>\ncommon. The potential for building a large quality list is at anyone&#8217;s fingertips.<br \/>\nAnd all these programs can be used in addition to your onsite autoresponder which<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re using to build your contact list.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, below is a recent article on building your list with Twitter and the<br \/>\nwhole key is to integrate all your social networks programs into your web site.<br \/>\nMake it extremely easy for anyone to sign-up to your Twitter, YouTube, MySpace&#8230;<br \/>\naccounts from your site. Connect everything together and promote your<br \/>\nsocial contact sites just like you would your own site.<\/p>\n<p>In this article I also give you some tips on how to increase your Twitter<br \/>\nfollowers &#8211; you can find it here:<br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.sitepronews.com\/2010\/05\/31\/list-building-in-the-age-of-twitter<\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n<b>Top 10 Linkedin Strategies To Increase Your Contacts\/Income<\/b><br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\n<span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><br \/>\nAnother online resource which is extremely helpful but you don&#8217;t hear too much<br \/>\nabout it is Linkedin, which you can also use to build your list of contacts. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>I am not an expert on Linkedin, so of course, I do the next best thing &#8211; seek<br \/>\nout someone who is!<\/p>\n<p>One of the best experts on how to use Linkedin is <b>Lewis Howes<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>He has become somewhat of a LinkedIn &#8220;guru&#8221;, someone who has developed<br \/>\nand used strategies to make this program work for him and for you, if you<br \/>\nfollow his advice.<\/p>\n<p>I personally find Linkedin has the most professional or highly connected contacts<br \/>\non it, more so than on YouTube or even Twitter &#8211; high-level experts and business<br \/>\npeople who can really help your business grow.<\/p>\n<p>To get a free video of the Top 10 Linkedin Tips you can use to fully take advantage<br \/>\nof this networking site.
