    You can build a list without a domain name or hosting, all you need is an autoresponder that host your form, the best on the market are Aweber and Getresponse .
    You can literally start building a list with no money at all .
    PS: But if you are serious about your online business you need to invest money to make money period .

      In order to build you email list, you also need to give people a reason to give you their email address.

      This is usually done by giving away something for free - such as a report, ebook, video or audio.

      You can create this yourself or pay someone to create something that you feel people in your niche would find interesting and helpful.

    Autoresponder, domain, Free Giveaway or something to sell are really the basic requirements. You've then just got to decided on how to get some traffic free or paid, or a mixture of both

    Costs Domain around $10 for a year
    Hosting no more than $10 a month
    Autoresponder depends on how many subscribers you have - check Aweber or Get Response, I think they both have trial periods to begin with, certainly Aweber does.

    Well if it comes to basics, than I recommend:
    Step 1: Get a Website Builder With Hosting
    Step 2: Get a Domain Directed to Your New Site
    Step 3: Open a New Aweber Account
    Step 4: Create a New List Name
    Step 5: Create an Opt in Form
    Step 6: Embed Opt in Form on Your Site Builder and Upload it
    Step 7: Finally Send Traffic from Solo Ads, Social Media, and SEO Traffic
    Make sure you have anywhere from a 30%-45% opt in rate. Those are my averages unless anyone else has a better suggestion.
