How do I make an email listThis is a really important question. If you are looking to earn an income online, then you will need to make an email list as soon as possible because it is the only way you really can earn an income online.

Your email list is your personal list of contacts. People have signed up specifically to receive more information from you. You have the opportunity to send your subscribers useful information and product recommendations regularly.

When they buy, you will earn a commission. (Sending people directly to a sales page does not work, because no one buys anything the first time they see an offer.) This is why you need to follow up regularly to build trust with your subscribers over a longer period of time.

How to Create an Email List in 4 Easy Steps:

Making an email list is not completely free. However, the cost is really small, and if you are looking to earn an income from the web, you will need to invest in your new business. The only thing you really need to make money online is an email list with lots of active subscribers, and this is also the only thing you must invest money in.

 

Step #1: You will need to create a professional-looking opt-in form.

Your opt-in form needs to convert visitors into subscribers. This is why you will need to create a professional-looking opt-in form where people can subscribe to your newsletter. You can create a beautiful opt-in form directly in your autoresponder account. An autoresponder is an email service that will send out your emails automatically to your subscribers once they have signed up.

I highly recommend getting an autoresponder account that offers you unlimited subscribers, lists, broadcasts, tracking, etc. for a small flat monthly fee, like SendSteed, which is a part of LeadsLeap.com.

(Normally, autoresponder companies charge you according to the size of your email list, and this can become really expensive as your list grows.)

 

Step #2: You will need to create a great "freebie"!

The idea is to get people to subscribe to your email newsletter. For this to work, you will need to have a  something of real value that you can give away in exchange for their name and email address.

The "freebie" can be an ebook, a pdf report, "how-to" video training, a webinar, etc., anything that is closely related to what you will share in your newsletter.

If you have no idea how to create your own "freebie,"  there are ready-made PLR products online that you can use. A great site where you can get instant access to thousands of PLR products with giveaway rights is called PLRProducts.com. This site has content in every niche you can think of.

 

Step #3: You will need to create email messages to be sent automatically to your subscribers.

When you have your autoresponder account and have created your opt-in form, then you need to write follow-up email messages. These email messages will be sent automatically to your subscribers over time. Before sending traffic to your optin form, make sure everything works by subscribing to your own email list!

You should share useful and helpful information in these email messages, as well as recommend products and services that are closely related. You will earn a commission every time a product or service is sold. This will take time, but it is the most effective way to earn a passive income online from home.

One of the best places to look for affiliate products to recommend is ShareASale.com; another great place to find digital products to promote is ClickBank.com.

 

Step #4: You will need to send targeted traffic to your opt-in form.

There are both free and paid methods you can use to get targeted traffic to your email opt-in form. Below is more information about the different traffic methods and helpful tips for getting the most out of them.
