7 Ways To Explode The Size of Your List

Make no mistake about it, you can make a great living from your online business. To maximize your online income, you need a list. The real money, the consistent money, the massive profits, come from your list. List building is one area where size really does matter, the bigger your list, the bigger your income.

The way to build a list is through the use of a squeeze page. A squeeze page is web page where people go to join (opt in to) your list. In most cases, they provide their name and email address. Following are the 7 steps to improve your squeeze page and explode the size of your list:

1. Make sure your opt in box is ‘above the fold,’ that means that you can see this box as soon as you enter the web page without having to page up, page down, or otherwise use your mouse. Your opt in box should have a place of prominence on your page. I place mine in the center of the page, just above the fold.

2. There should never be any distractions on your squeeze page. Do not place ads of any kind, links, or messages on your squeeze page. Your one and only goal is to convince the reader to opt in.

3. Use a great headline in bold print. Provide benefits that the visitor will get by opting into your list. You want to compel your reader to submit his name and email address.

4. Keep your opt in box simple. The more information you request, the lower your opt in numbers will be. I ask for name and email address, that’s all, two simple boxes.

5. Most people today, are concerned about their privacy. Provide a privacy statement saying that you won’t rent, share, or sell their information and place it just below the opt in box.

6. Give them something. People like free stuff. I give away a free ebook, but you can use a free report, newsletter, article, e-course or subscription. You are only limited by your imagination. The item that you give away should have some value as perceived by your visitor.

7. Create a sense of urgency, Make sure you provide plenty of reasons to opt in and provide a sense of urgency. If you lose them at this point they will never return.

Real long-term success depends upon the quality and quantity of your list. Remember, the long-term money is in your list, and the size of your list is directly related to the quality of your squeeze page. A well-designed squeeze page with a compelling offer can explode the size of your list.
