How Much is a list worth in 2009?
However how much worth is a list really worth these days? The assumption if I remember is that each subsrciber should bring an average of $1 per month.
I was shocked to learn that a relatively well known guy with a list of over 100,000 people makes a profit of just a little over $25,000 per month from it. I thought he would be making at least $100K per month.
His average per subscriber earnings are slowly dropping over the years as more and more upcomers cannabalise his subscribers.
This also helped me understand why so many gurus I have subscribed to only rarely send me offers. (Phil Wiley, John Reese etc)
The guy with the 100K list spent nearly 6 years to build his list and John Xfactor of Adsense fame makes nearly the same amount as him from his no list AdSense empire built within a year.
So how much is a subscriber list really worth these days?
I have just earned my Christmas bonus, and I was wondering whether I should spend it on buying PPC traffic to build myself a big list that I can leverage over time. That is why I am asking: so as to make a comparison of different strategies. I am not being nosy for the sake of it.
