How Would You Build A Good List Reasonably Fast?

That depends, having a list doesn't mean they're subscribers. What niche are you talking about exactly?

I acquire data (email) VS building lists. At least for the verticals that I promote on a large scale.

As I do some actual list building, but I only do it for the projects, that I can't just acquire specifically target data that I want.

Let me explain something. Data that I acquire (not building) I do this to promote PPL (pay per lead...lead generation) offers. With PPL offers, there is no credit card / purchase required to complete an offer. All a use has to do is fill out a form, so conversion rates are typically much higher than offers that require you to make a sale.

If you are wanting to promote a specific site or offer that requires a purchase, then acquiring data may not be the best route and developing your own opt-in lists may be the much better choice.

If you are looking for an additional revenue stream or you are simply looking for a business model that that is proven to work, then you may want to consider it.

I just replied to a post that some was asking about generating mortgage leads and I explained about acquiring data, as mortgage leads are a PPL offer. However they could have been asking about any PPL type offer and my response would have been the same.

For example: insurance, debt, credit, loans, education, assistance, homeowner offers, etc, etc...

Anyway, if interested. here is a link to the post:

A list resembles a group of individuals who are interested in what you do or what you're offering to them.

Instead of building a list with emails, why not try building a following on YouTube or any social media platform?

Isn't that kinda like having an email list? It will be slow; of course, but like anything, it will take sometime; depending on the niche, before you see some actual results.

Build fast? Then paid traffic is the way I would go.

You can build a good list, fast list, or inexpensive list. Pick two, cannot have all three.

Fast+ Inexpensive is what most go for, and that loads you up with freebie seekers as method involves giving away something. I do not use this method, and I am minority there, because when I did, I ended up being pushed into higher list brackets and I found that $$$ per email dropped.

Good+Inexpensive is slow. You simply do not offer a freebie. This is what I use for most of my sites. They receive weekly digest of my blog posts, and very rarely (maybe twice per year) legitimate affiliate offer. Never anything from Clickbank, or anything fishy. Instead I send things like promotional discount on Scrivener.

Either method can be enhanced using Facebook Ads as cheapest decent solution, Google or Bing Ads as more expensive solutions, or by creating a product which you will give away 100% to your affiliates from, but capture sales emails.

Building a good list will firstly require targeting at the right audience. Good paid traffic source allows you to do this to select your target audience.

Having said that, you may try free traffic as well such as guest blogging. It is super targeted as well and can get you floods of opt-ins if you have quality article published at high trafficked blogs.
