Opt-In List Building For Beginners

Chris Kent · 01-14-2011, 05:44 AM

Here is my article on opt-in list building for beginners. I want to share with you my own 3 personal tips to fill up your list with hungry buyers. List building sometimes seems like an art rather than a science. In truth, it's about putting many ingredients together to make one killer recipe. In this article, you can think of these tips as new personal habits that you need to take on board which will help you to become a better and even better list builder. Learning about list building and getting better never stops but you may as well start from a strong position.

Twitter Search

I strongly recommend that you create a Twitter account specifically for your list, if you haven't done already. Set your home page to be your squeeze page. Each time you publish an article, tweet it to your followers (if you use Ezinearticles then this will happen automatically).

Then use the Twitter Search function to look for people who are tweeting about your niche. Follow them and they might check out your page and one of your articles or even visit your squeeze page directly. The more you do this, the more targeted eyeballs you can get on your squeeze page, into your list and eventually buying from you.

Misleading Subject Lines

Your subject lines should generate curiosity in the person reading them. Another good tip is to follow the "AIDA" principle which is to generate attention, interest, desire and action.

Whatever you do though, do not mislead your readers. Don't tell them something in the subject line that you cannot back up properly in your email. Do not exaggerate on a regular basis. Definitely, do not put the phrase "RE:" in your subject line to make it look like you are a friend replying to an email sent previously. If you do all these things then you will lose trust, get more subscribes and your autoresponder company may even have a quiet word with you about the spam complaints that are reflecting negatively on their business and could get your account cancelled.

Exact Match Domain

If you can, consider getting an exact match domain. This is a domain with a strong keyword in your niche, usually between three and four words long.

If you do this then Google will send you some free direct traffic from surfers who type that phrase directly into the search box. Quite often, you will be on page one for this search. If not, then create a few relevant site articles and put a link to them at the bottom of your squeeze page where they will not normally be noticed by anyone - this link only exists to get your content indexed and boost your ranking.
