List building process
I have been trying to understand the whole list building process but have not got to grips with it fully. I have therefore a few questions that will aid me in better understanding it. Thanks in advance.
1) When the list is developed it gets stored by Aweber (or some other list building service). Am I right in thinking you need to add your
Aweber account code to your Email list form on the site where the subscribe form resides (much like how you do it with Feedburner)?
2) Regarding free eBook - From my reading I have noticed that a lot of people start building their list by offering free information, like the download of an eBook.So my question is, when someone subscribes for the first time, will they receive the first email that contains the link to this free ebook, but how do you sort out first time suscbribers from subscribers that have been members for awhile who now should no longer be receiving the introductory email?
When you send out an email, does it get sent out to all members? What if you don't want to send out an offer to members that have only subscribed for a week because you are still trying to 'warm' your relationship with them?
2) From my understanding, any list you build needs to be fed content every few days at the minimum; how do you guys think of things to send to them? How do you keep it fresh. For example, if it was in a back pain niche, what sort of information could you send to keep the emails interesting given that you will be sending them out quite frequently? I suppose these are the crucial
emails because it what you use to build a relationship with the list, but how do you keep it interesting?
Can you give details about coupons that may interest them, a major nationwide seminar, etc?
3) When you promote your product or affiliate products in the email, do you have direclt link to the merchant sales page, or do you
send it to a review page first?
4) How often can you repeat details of an offer that you are trying to sell to them? Say, you create an eBook and it would really appeal to the list, how often might you send emails containing a link to the sales page. Is it only once or can you do it from time to time?
5) Can the emails look like ordinary emails or should it be on one of those fancy templates? Does Aweber provide email templates?
6) When you send out offers in your emails, should you cloak your links so it doesn't appear like as if you are trying to sell?
