Building Your Opt-In List - Part II


Hi, Folks!

Hope you're doing just great today, and that you're ready to move right along building your opt-in lists!

If you've finished your plans from Part I, by this point you've set up


If you haven't finished (or even started!) that process yet, you can retreive the info from the archive. Stop and do it now - today's steps build on those, so make sure they're in place first.

Today we'll focus on two of my favorite types of tools - tools that are FREE, VIRAL & PROVEN EFFECTIVE!!! And better yet, both are 'SET & FORGET' resources - tools that take only a few minutes to enable, and then require no further work to keep them working for you long term...

Both of these viral list-builders operate on a similar basis. By placing their code on your page, you create an additional signup form with a few related e-zines on it for people to sign up through. For every page-view you receive, your e-zine or e-course info shows up in a subscription form on other people's sites!

These programs have been responsible for adding literally hundreds of opt-in subscribers to our lists and yet it took less than an hour to join and get the codes for both programs working on our various sites as appropriate. Not a bad return for the time spent, eh?

And the beauty of it is that they'll just keep on adding signups to our lists as time goes on, without any intervention from us whatsoever! True 'Set & Forget' technology!

Read through the signup pages and then register for your own account at each:

OptIn Storm

List Inferno

Go ahead - Click through to each of them using the above links... I'll wait...

Dum-De-Dum-Dum... (Hmmm... never knew a person could type off-key...)

Welcome back! Gee, that didn't take long, did it? And like I said - both services are totally free - neither charged you a cent, tried to upgrade you to some other level or anything, did they?

Go ahead and add the codes to your page now, and to your home page, and to any other high-traffic page in your site. The List Inferno code will place a subscription box wherever you put it on your page (we always put it at the bottom so it doesn't interrupt our visitors' flow), while the OptIn Storm code produces a pop-up subscription form as the person leaves your page.

Once your code's in place, upload the page to overwrite the original one and away it goes. If you're one of the people who got the FloatIn Windows Generator from us this week, make sure you've set it to slide in when the person first comes to the page so that the OptIn Storm popup on exit isn't annoying overkill.

Wow - what an opt-in trap you've built! There's the Float-In when they arrive, the subscription form on the page, and now another chance for them to sign up when they're leaving the page - plus dozen, hundreds or possibly even thousands of other peoples' sites showing your e-course, depending on your web site traffic levels...

What a List-Building Wizard you've become! And there's still more ways to come!!!

Keep that 'Superior-To-All-Others' feeling going, and we'll talk more soon!

All the best,

Doug Champigny.
Welland, ON, Canada.
