Hi all,

Can you give me some advice on list building, I'm finding it difficult to build my list, and have been stuck on 1.2k for a year now. Ad swaps aren't helping.

Is there any way I can boost my list up other than solo ads?

Also my OTO is not converting brilliantly.
What other ways are there to build lists?

thanks
B

    I don´t know how you get your traffic, but a way to increase your list is getting extra traffic, and make sure there is a interesting offer (eBook, mp3, video or whatever), to give them incentive to signup, and thereby increase your list. Then market to your list.
    And easy way to instantly generate traffic for any site you want, is the Yahoo Answers!
    If you Get/upgrade to an level2 account, you will be able to post a clickable link, and then answer questions in the forum, regarded to your niche. Great way to get steady, increasing traffic.

    The best way to increase your list you to organize competitions . You can also share or distribute freebies like ebook, software download to enlarge your list.

    May I ask what do you mean by List building? Or are you referring to link building? Sorry but I can hardly understand it.

    Well there is WSO's, PPC, CPV, Media buying etc...

    WHy solo ads do not work for you? It's for me a good way to build my list...

    Also are you constantly trying to increase your subscribers number?

    Try to at least add 200-300 people per month on your list...

    Try to offer something free but useable in exchange for the email then communicate to create good repo before start selling.

      You should try WSOs. Its a great way to build a targeted list of responsive subscribers in a relatively short time. However I would also advise revisiting solo ads here on the WF, if you look around, look for good reviews by fellow warriors, there are some gems of lists there on offer.

      I am aware you don't want to reveal your niche, but is it a micro niche of some sort, if it is and its not a popular one, maybe thats the issue

    I would definitely offer an incentive such as a free e-book to get them to subscribe.

    You didn't give any of us enough information to help you
    specifically with your problem:

    1. What NICHE are you in (listen, I don't CARE about your
    niche and neither anyone else here. Believe me. It's not
    as *exclusive* as you might think.)

    2. Are you offering VALUE to people when they join your
    list?

    3. Did you take an HONEST look at what YOU'RE doing
    wrong?

    To answer your question on other ways to build a list...
    although it won't help you any...

    you can do articles, videos, doc sharing sites, and various
    other PPC methods.

    So. There you have it. It won't solve the real problem you
    are facing, but you got what you want.

    Fact its, Solo-Ads is one of the best and highest leverage
    tools you'll get access to next to PPC, Media buys, and
    other paid traffic -- and you say your OTO isn't converting?

    It's something you're doing wrong, and it's one of two things:

    1. It's not TARGETED to what your list opted in your list for.

    2. They don't TRUST you enough to BUY recommendations
    from you.

    Are you focusing on HELPING others get what THEY want
    before you ask them to buy stuff? It doesn't sound like it...

    anyways...

    just a few questions for you to ponder on your own time. No
    need to answer them in this forum.
