When trying to get more subscribers to your opt in box, try Internet advertising to improve your flow of traffic. Usually the best way is to start with free or low-cost advertising until you have developed a high-converting opt-in page. Then begin experimenting with some paid methods, being careful to test your market response before paying too much.
Paid Advertising
1. Paying the search engines and directories for placement. You can rank high in search engines and directories through sponsored placements and pay-per-click ads. Google and Yahoo are some of the top places to put in these ads. Although they do generate almost instant traffic, they can be expensive. They are worth doing if the money made from sales is more than the cost of advertising advertising.
2. Pop Ups. Although promoted as an excellent way to get people to sign up for your opt-in list or to buy a product, this form of advertising is controversial. This is because while it does work, it also irks visitors because it is so intrusive. Many browsers now have a feature to stop pop-ups and people often have these turned on. Unless you are sure that your pop-up makes an irresistible offer, it is better to save your money.
3. Podcasts. This is a highly effective way of presenting information, but it does involve quite a few expenses. It is best to use podcasts if you have a well-established subscriber list.
Free Advertising
1. Create backlinks. One of the most powerful traffic generating methods is the use of backlinks. By putting your website information on other people’s website, visitors have a way to follow the links to your website. It is almost like putting up text ads. There are many ways to get backlinks, including link exchanges, article writing, video promotion, and forum marketing.
2. Submit your website information to search engines and directories. Search engines and directories allow you to submit your website URL to them for indexing.
3. Blogging. Blogging is a popular way to generate free traffic. The search engines love blogs because of the fresh content. Blogs can be set up free or at a low cost. Blogs that do well have keyword-rich posts and build up a readership because of content.
