1.Buy a list from a reputed IMer.

2.Create a great product which pro IMers would want to promote.

3.Create a WSO on Warrior Forum.

These are the ones that come to my mind.

*** If you meant for free, I can't think of anything faster than Article Marketing.

Create something worth $100. Sell it for $50 and offer 100% commission.

Fastest way to a huge list of buyers there is.

some of the fastest ways to build a list is giving away pad files at file sharing sites, they need to enter their email to open the file.

Using twitter, facebook, myspace (yes is still alive and breathing!)

Article and content syndication is also a good way to drive traffic to your squeeze page.

You need to have a highly converting squeeze page in order to turn your visitors to suscribers.

Look at one of the list co-reg options from a reputable IMer. I think Mike Filesaime, Mike G and other big players offer a service.

The free techniques take time and effort but you could also look at paid solo ads and ad swaps.

Offer a good product for free.

Don't just go with one option, try several and improve on those which generate the best results.

From my experience give aways are a waste of time as most people are just after freebies.

Remember you want a responsive list you can market to, not just a high subscriber count. Where possible create several small niche specific lists.

Solo Ads are the best way to get going, Also where are you sending your traffic to? A squeeze page?

I don't think this is allowed at warrior forum, but you could write an ebook, and offer it for free in exchange for an email submit.

Building a list takes time, but if you build yourself a targeted list you won't need as many as you think to start earning. You should first set up a squeeze page that offers a free product, then buy a domain that matches up with the free product, sign up for the likes of AWeber to capture the names and emails.

Then drive traffic to that squeeze page with article marketing, Use twitter and link to it, facebook, forums.

Alternatives methods, create you own product, find JV partners to promote it for you, it can be difficult if you're only starting out to find a JV to promote for you at 50% unless it's a killer product, you may need to push as high as 80% or more to get them to promote, just make sure you cover yourself at the backend and that should take care of the expenses.

Creating your own product and having JV's with a huge list promote it will by far be the quickest way to build a list.

If size/speed's all you care about, buy solo ads and then when you get to about 400-500, start ad swapping like crazy. It's not that difficult as long as your offer's pretty good. But do you really want a list full of people who came from other marketer's lists? Just sayin'.

Building an effective list also requires time and some kind of investment.

rent a list and send to your LP

Use article marketing, video marketind and social media to drive traffic to a squeeze page. From there on build a list with at least 500 people, the go to the warrior adswaps forums. keep adswapping until you reach you desired goal. Remember you can do adswaps more than 1 time with the same person.

It sounds easy when i type it like this, but you have to work your ass off in order to reach it.

I am still new to the business but having spent some time looking around it seems that the various suggestions in the different posts above have been suggested and are bring used by many people. There does not seem to be one good method.

Looking at some of the top people they all seem to have started at the bottom and slowly worked their way to the top by offering good products and then using various methods to promote their product. They have each used their own method of attracting names to add to their lists and

Are you giving anything away for free? if so you can use twitter and facebook, those two websites helped me a lot when it comes to building lists

Article marketing with links to a squeeze page containing a free high quality offer that is 100% related to the article works well for me. I also always put more free high quality reports and ebooks in my follow up emails which helps keep my lists responsive.

The more links you have pointing to the squeeze page, the faster your list will grow.

Here is what I have done and it has allowed me to quickly build my list:

1. Solo Ads
2. Ad Swaps
3. Article Marketing
4. Giveaways
5. Software sharing (pad files)
6. Video Marketing
7. Forum Marketing
8. Products with 100% commission (I send to squeeze page first and offer 100% on the OTO)
9. Autoresponder swaps

I am working on a product now that I will offer 100% commission on that will go straight to a salespage (instead of squeeze page).

Good Luck

I would either do a WSO or JV your own product. If you JV as your new your going to pay a high comission, but you do get access to the list.

Anyone tryed to build a list using ebay clasified ads?

It looks pretty good strategy as I am building a list of buyers.

How to do it? Could you give me more information about this?

I consider solo ads and ad swap the most highly effective method in generating fast traffic...for free traffic, besides article writing, you can consider turning your articles into a report and send them to slideshare or scribd or any document sharing sites....

of coz, video marketing and pod casting can still work

You could test out solo ads on a small scale first (always start small with a new list, no matter what type of a budget you have), and then reinvest with your profits.

Another thing that would really help is to create a pretty great product that overdelivers between the $7 and $17 price range, and then offer 100% commissions on that. If your product's a good one, it'll be very appealing to affiliates when they can get instant 100% commissions.

Try this...

You might want to read my other post where I revealed a little-known tip to greatly increase your list:

http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...iber-list.html

At the beginning, there's no faster way than to pay mailing list owners in your niche to promote your squeeze page. Sure it's an investment at the beginning, but it can propel your business from 0 to 60 in no time. If I was to start from zero, that's what I would do.

Free reports and pdf giveaways etc are good but make sure you get a responsive list and not just those looking for a freebie. You can't beat a 'buyer' list and that is gonna come from setting up your own offers. You can just rebrand plr stuff if you like - or go for your own and hope some big affiliates pick it up and get you some sales.

Seriously after reading all of yours comments, I'm just wondering only one person so far have talked about JV Giveaways. In my opinion, JV Giveaways are great way to build your list. But, there are some terms like you should promote it to your list & etc.

However, if you are just starting out, just upgrade yourself as the paid contributor and offer an outstanding gift via that giveaway. This will ensure more people to sign up into your list via giveaway. I'm telling you this because this method worked for me & brought 700+ new sign-ups into my list(that's in only giveaway itself). I even set up an OTO to test out whether this list will convert or not and to my surprise more than 10% have converted into buyers. After that, I made a couple of hundreds of dollars via the same list. Building your list is also depends on what niche you're into.

My second opinion is sell a great product (it could be yours or remake of any quality PLR product) and get affiliates to promote it. For this you need a system. In my opinion RAP working perfectly on this. Affliates who love instant commissions definitely will promote your product. Where to get the affiliates? Simple, definitely you'll be in someone's list & check out those list owners. I've seen more affiliates are coming forward to promote a product which have instant commissions. Hope this info will help you.

Good Luck in building your list.

I'd recommend you check out Andre Chaperon's Autoresponder Madness (Official Site) (no affiliate link) because this guy gets amazing conversions - 600 people to buy his product from a list of ONLY 2400 people. I recommend this guy HIGH enough and his product is of top quality!

AFTER ALL, You want buyers on your list and not just subscribers who don't make you money!

I would agree with you. For newbie like me, what kinda strategy can I use to build my list fast?

Doing clasified ads now, and the result seems so so ... :confused:

the fastest way to build your list apart from creating a product and offering 100% commission is:

to buy solo ads

solo ads are my secret weapon ;-)

you can get set up in a matter of hours

with solo ads you dont need to jump through hoops like you do for ppc and fb ads

its easy, fast and profitable just make sure you have a good squeeze page set up and a basic sales funnel with a oto and you are good to go

paul

Indeed paid traffic is the way to go for fast list building. You have to be careful though,
cause if you don't know what you are doing you can lose a lot of money, especially with
PPC. The risk is smaller with solo ads, but you need to have good converting landing
page to make the most out of it.

Solo Ads are the best and fastest!!

Fastest?----->PAID!

-Banner Buys

-Solo Ads

-2nd tier add networks (google content network)


KaL.

create a solid product and OTO, give 100% commission on both
Rinse, repeat

I agree. The best way is to make an awesome product and offer 100% commission. You'll be building a high quality list of buyers and you can offer an upsell or companion product so you can make some money off the original offer. You can do this for very little money if you do all the creation and writing yourself.

Then find some well known marketers and bloggers and get in touch with them about promoting your offer.

Matt. Use the oldest method in the book: GIVE AWAY SOMETHING FREE, BUT SOMETHING GOOD !!

And if you will go with the paid traffic route, please buy legitimate traffic from legitimate sources. A lot of "buy traffic" companies are simply a farce !

solo ads works best for now...you may also try PPC

Make your landing page and offers so irresistible and professional then do all things to give traffic to your site. Traffic, traffic, traffic is really important right after you test the conversion rate of your landing page.

Here is the list you need to remember.

LIST of freebies seekers are for peasants

LIST of BUYERS are for Gentlemen

LIST of repeat buyers are for kings!

The real question now is not HOW FAST can you build a list, but what type are you going to build.

With all of this in your mind now, What sort of a list do you want to create for you and Your business. :-)

Great advice indiahow, really useful info. I'll try this myself

Paid way is always faster, may buy solo ads. A tip when buying solo ads, always buy the least click to know how well your seller list convert. Only if it does convert well, you can go for the higher amount of clicks. Then you can go for ad swap when you reach at least 200 subscribers. But there are cons too for ad swap as you are again diluting your subscribers.

But building list is not a day or two thing, you will need to slowly work to cum to a big list.
Other great method for building list is writing article and video, these 2 may be slower but it is very proven system that works.

If you have some budget, launch a free wso + a few solo ads :-)

Paid advertising will build it up for you super quick, but make sure you start small and tweak your conversions.

This thread will get you started:

Also do yourself a favor and pick up Jonathan Mizel's Traffic Evolution before you try any of this.

FOCUS... If you want to build your list reliably you need to realize that Paid Traffic is the way to go. Now most people get all nervous and scarred when they hear the words "Paid Traffic"

They assume it's money lost... But if you have everything setup correctly you can actually make your ad spend back most of the time. (At least that's been my experience)

Now, if you don't then that's okay because your investment is still working for you. Your tracking scripts will tell you what you are doing right and what you need to change. Your advertising costs are providing you with the data you need to make the changes necessary in order for your pages to convert better.

The data I'm talking about is the paid traffic sources you are using. After you buy your ads, the traffic will tell you which page is better.

Start small... you can buy good sources of paid advertising for $25 to $75 that will produce subscribers for you. (and no I'm not talking about Ad.fly traffic)

The fastest and easiest way of building a list is doing adswaps and buying solo
mailings. I do this all the time and it can ad hundreds of new subs to your list.

The best place to start of for both of these is over at Safeswaps.

Hope this helps!

If I were you, I would give one of the articles you've written away for free when people opt in. To see the fastest results, buy solo ads promoting it.

Unfortunately I don't think there is a quick way to build a highly responsive list you just have to keep working hard and things start to snowball good luck

solo ads I would say. You can get targeted subscribers from there

Have to agree with the guys who said about creating a FREE eBook and giving it away for free. Follow this up with more free content whether a informative video or another informative article related to your niche. The quickest way though is to really target someone with an authority and get them to promote your offer. I've done this a few times with people who have a Youtube authority, i've sponsored a video they've released which promoted my free offer and opt in page and i've received some pretty quick sign ups. If your opt in page has no traffic, you've got no real social media prescence the quickest way is to team up with someone who has this...

Solo ads/ Ad swaps work well for building a list fast.

You have to be careful though,
cause if you don't know what you are doing you can lose a lot of money, especially with
PPC. The risk is smaller with solo ads,
