Turning Traffic into Subscribers
Traffic is much more economical than Subscribers - here's how to convert one into the other! Traffic into Subscribers (C)2003 Stuart Reid Site Traffic is always more economical in terms of Time and Price compared to Ezine Subscribers. It's quicker to get a hit than a subscriber! Bulk Leads are almost useless for using as subscribers and so-called Co-ops can be expensive. Dedicated Signup pages are one of the best ways to grab subscribers. Creating a good Signup Page is a must in order to make the most of this. Grabbing a visitors attention and getting them to give you their email address is one of the most important things you must do to build your subscriber list. If you go to ebay or other auction sites you'll see that you can buy bulk traffic for very little. These hits come from a variety of sources, such as popups, popunders, hit exchanges and expired domains. Although there are problems with the verification of such traffic it's still a great and cheap way to drive your site rankings in place such as Alexa. You can also generate your own hits using exchanges in combination. Services such as `10 Minutes a Day` are a great way to do this in one place. http://www.10minutesaday.net/members/essjayar/ ( Other traffic generation tips at http://www.netpreneurnow.com/2traffic.html ) Because site visitors, especially random ones, are very flighty it's important a page that is shown as this kind of traffic is targeted and hits you quick. First - NEVER use your main page! It will probably take too long to load and be too `full` to be effective! Make sure any signup box appears at the TOP of the page. If the page loads in a frame or is off-center on the screen then only a small portion will be immediately viewable. Use a catchy headline to grab attention. A graphical headline may work better. It's goal is to get the
viewer to see the page rather than just click the small `x` in the corner! Use a pop-up subscriber box (create one with Magic Subscriber - http://www.netpreneurnow.com/magic ) to immediately grab your visitors email. Don't be sneaky with this. Make sure the visitor knows what they are clicking `Yes` to. A pop-up alert box like this will automatically e-mail your auto subscribe address using your visitors main email. Offer benefits under your headline, such as free downloads or site access. Repeat your signup box near here. Only then list your ezine description in detail, and also include your privacy policy, publishing schedule and other pertinent information. The goal of this signup page is to load fast and grab attention. Don't waste time with frames (they take ages to load) or large graphics. Don't overload with banners, but a few could be useful to take advantage of the traffic you get. Make sure they load at the bottom. Be careful with popups and popunders because they can make your site invalid for hit exchanges and certain bulk traffic sellers. It's advisable to make TWO dedicated signup pages, one with a pop-up (that you can use for your own links and ads) and one without. Subscription Rocket works especially well for this!
