Safelists provide a great way of building your e-mail opt in list. However there is a great deal of confusion and a misconception regarding exactly what safelist is. If you are looking for a way to expand your subscriber list and you are considering using safe lists then read this article to find out what a safe list is.

A safe list is a list of people who have opted in to receive e-mails from other marketers. If you are in the Internet marketing niche then safe lists provide a great way of advertising your offers and services to other marketers.

There are two basic types of safe list. The two types of safe list are credit-based safe lists and non-credit-based safe lists. In a credit-based safe list you earn credits by viewing the websites of other safe list users.

Each day you receive e-mails from other safe list users who are advertising their products and services to you. You click on a link in the e-mail which takes you to their websites. Usually you have to view their website for a set amount of time. This may be anything from 15 seconds to 30 seconds. This will earn you a set amount of credits ranging from 10 to 50. Each credit can be used to send one e-mail to another member of the safelist.

A non-credit-based safe list enables you to e-mail other members of the safelist but there is no link within the e-mail to earn credits with. There is therefore very little incentive for people to read your e-mails because they are not going to earn credits by doing so.

A lot of people say that non-credit-based safe lists are less effective than credit based safe lists. However, if you have a great title to your e-mail which captures their attention and curiosity then marketing using non-credit-based safe lists can be effective. I have recently been using an e-mail on non-credit-based safe lists which has got me between seven and nine signups a day.

Safe this provide a great way to try out different ads, e-mail subject lines and sales copy. If you find a winning add which converts well on safe list traffic then you can go on to use this ad in other advertising campaigns knowing that it will convert well in advance.

Hope you found this introduction to safe lists useful. If you’re not already using them to increase your opt in subscribers to your e-mail list then you should give them a go as they can be really effective.

Everyone says that the money is in the list. If you want to find out what list building tools you need to build an e-mail list then read this article to find out more.

The first thing that you need is a domain name. You can get one of these from any of the well-known registrars, such as Godaddy or Namecheap. Your domain name should reflect the niche of your opt in e-mail list. It should also be a com domain as these are most trusted by Internet users and building trust is very important in e-mail marketing.

You need to get yourself a hosting account if you don’t already have one. You do not need a dedicated server at this point and you should be perfectly okay with a virtual hosting account. You can get one of these for just a few dollars a month.

You need a reliable auto responder service to manage your e-mail list building campaign. Go with one of the better-known providers who can ensure that your e-mails get delivered. The two better-known services which are both inexpensive and reliable are Getresponse and Aweber.

Once you have these in place you need to come up with a reason for people to want to join your list. The most commonly used tactic is to provide an incentive for people to subscribe. This is known as a lead magnet or bribe. This can take a variety of formats such as a report, video, webinar, ecourse or a piece of software. Free reports are a popular incentive for your prospects, and this is because they are easily accessible and fast to access the contents. Not everyone has the time to sit through a webinar or watch a long video. People want information fast, and a free report is a good method of providing it to them.

Once you have all of these in place you need to setup a page for your subscribers to opt in to your e-mail list. This is known as a squeeze page and its sole objective is to either get people to opt in to your list or leave the page. There should be no other links or distractions on this page.

You then need to set up a thank you page which will show to your subscribers after they have opted in to your list.

Once you have all of these parts in place, you will have an effective system for generating subscribers to your opt in e-mail list. All that remains to be done is to generate traffic to your squeeze page.

adding an opt in form to your wordpress blog is a great way to increase your subscribers

Split testing your squeeze page can dramatically increase your opt in email conversion rates, getting more subscribers for the same traffic

Writing a free report is a great way to encourage opt in email subscribers to join your list

Good morning, how is your list building going?
