thanks Nio for being so helpful. i tried but i still have some questions unanswered.

Ok so when i have people signing of for my list i have to email them like twice a week? But what do i tell them? more info regarding the given niche? show them more interesting free offers? or what do i do?
How do i really make money from them? sell them WSO?

OK thank you so much
i am intending to start building my list today since i am only good in one field that i do, i will just give them some great information from what i do.

Nothing uncommon. I asked these questions many times when I strated online. List building is an art and your real estate if done corretctly. Basically for list building you need the following set up in place.

1. An autoresponder
2. A squeeze page
3. Follow up series

All the very best

pardon me but I find it weird that you have been at WF for more than a year and never come across the answers that you are asking?

Anyway.. as mentioned, you also need build relationship with your list and understand what are their needs. Whether OTO, downsell or upsell, you would have to test it out..

If not, find a mentor to guide you along. Beats wondering aimlessly..

my 2 cents~

I advise you to start with social media first. Gather enough Facebook fans, receive lots of visitors first.

If you don't have at least (minimum) 500 daily uniques, then don't even start wasting your money on sophisticated software and promotion to build your list.

You need good relations with the potential buyers (fans), you already need a decent amount of Facebook fans...

Basically the idea is: don't start "list building" from zero. Gain popularity, SM popularity and visitors, only then try building lists...

I hope this helps!

Ok here what you do get a domain name with some searches in the niche you install wordpress and then you optimize press to build your squeeze (bit pricey but worth it) then hook up your auto responder to your to your squeeze page and sort out all that, then load up some valuable follow up emails or gifts and drive traffic with backlinking .

One thing you got to remember is think of your list as a really big group of your friends and all you want to do is help them and recommend things that will help them move forward in what they are doing. Research the product before you send it out to your list you wouldn't recommend your friend something when knowing full well it doesn't work.

There is a lot to list building but when your just starting out you need to keep things very simple and then progress from there

In order to get started all you need is:

1. Auto-responder
2. Squeeze page
3. Qualty Free offer
4. One time offer (low priced/low ticket product to sell)
5. Some follow up emails in place

That is it

Do this and then drive traffic to your squeeze page and then let your follow ups take over and then watch conversions

Once you master this type of process you can then start adding upsells, downsells, pop ups etc etc

Do not try to do everything at once, this is what most people try to do and they fail flat on their face

Hi Areoo!

Download the FREE list building guide below that will get you started.

It will show you where to start, what tools you need and how building up trust and relationships with your subscribers can help to grow your business.

Yeah first you need to get an autoresponder, like Aweber.

Then you will see how to create web forms, set up follow up msgs, broadcasts, set up optin form, confirmation emails, and how to embed code onto your site.

Then using ppc and solo ads, you can build a list pretty quick.

there are tons of free resources right here on WF that will help you with list building.
I won't list them for you because you best do the search yourself..

but in essence you need to build or buy a lead magenet.. something you give away,
build a squeeze page.
set up your autoresponder..
drive traffic to your squeeze page.

Thats internet marketing and list building in a nutshell.

So, now that that is out of the way.. the ball is in your court.
Take action:
research.. grab a program here on WF
read it
follow it
build or buy your lead magnet
build your squeeze page
drive traffic

And there you have it. You are now a list builder and internet marketer.
All the Best,
Patrick

First choose your niche.

Then get a domain and hosting.

Next, look for free plr articles in your niche.

Set up a squeeze page and auto responder.

Offer the plr article for free when someone puts their email and name.

Here Is How to Build an Email List From Scratch...

I'm sure you've heard it before "the money is in the list". It's a reason why they say it. It's true. Building an email list and establishing a relationship with your list will allow you to market products over and over again.

On the surface, list building may seem like a complicated task and a lot of hard work. But in reality, it's really the opposite. So, how do you build a list and a relationship with your subscribers? It's actually quite simple once you have all of the ingredients.

First, you have to decide who your list is going to target, your niche market. After that, you will need to sign up with an auto responder service. There are a few good ones out there, but AWeber seems to be the service chosen by most marketers, including myself. Next, you will write your email messages. This is the part where a lot of people get stuck and back out. we will talk more about that in a moment.

After you've chosen your niche, joined with an auto responder service, and written about 10-20 emails, it's time to move to the next phase, which is building your squeeze page. Building a squeeze page used to require you to know programming code, but nowadays you can find squeeze page generators that will build it for you with a few clicks of a mouse. Once all of that is done, you simply upload your squeeze page to your server and drive targeted traffic. The key word there is "targeted".

Now, getting back to where most people get stuck at. This is the same point where I used to get stuck, writing emails. It's good to have a system to follow. The main goal of your emails is to build a relationship with your subscribers. Building a relationship will make your list trust you. When they trust you, they buy and buy often.

So, how do you build a strong relationship with your list? Simple, deliver quality content and provide value to your subscribers. When you do recommend a product or service, make sure it's something that will be useful to them. You may be thinking, how do will I know what will be valuable and useful to my subscribers? Easy, ask them what they want to learn more about.

Doing this accomplishes a few things; it builds rapport which leads to building relationships and it also tell you what to write your emails about and what types of products/services you list will be interested in buying. The members of your list are getting help solving their problem and you are making money at the same time. It's a win-win situation.

I think the best way to find out in regards to list building is try out different methods and see how quickly your subs rise, different approaches may have a vastly different response in all kinds of niches.

Hi,

First you need to come up with a plan or a marketing/SEO campaign. I suggest that you put all these in one excel file and then fill your sheets with information like keywords list, link building list, goals, and so on.

By having a concrete plan and putting/organizing everything in one file, it'll be easier for you to track your efforts and also measure the results.

As for your questions:

What are the things that i need to start my list building?
Like a said, start with a plan. After that you should be able to come up with a lit of good keywords for your site as well as a list of link building strategy. It is also important that you have a working schedule on which task should be completed on which date, and so on.

How do i start?
Once you are done with your SEO/marketing plan, you can just follow the steps you've indicated in your plan (excel file).

What happens when i some one already signs up to my list? how do we go from there?
What are the things that i can do to my list? Upsell and stuff? what kind of platform is advicable?

This is where you need to learn how to do newsletters. Try to do a research on how to use newsletters effectively. The bottom line to sending out newsletters to your list is to keep them updated of your business by proving them information/products that they need. There are ways on how to do these effectively.

What are the important things that i should take note off?

Always keep yourself updated of the latest SEO and marketing techniques. I suggest that when you do your SEO/marketing plan, try to assess which strategy is working for you and which is not. Again, you'll see how important it is to put everything in a file and get things organized. You get to see everything and can easily work things from your file.

I hope that helps.
