Email Marketing
Building a good opt-in list is crucial to successful email marketing. A small percentage of your visitors will subscribe. If you provide a good ezine, your email list will grow. You can also achieve this by having good content on your sites, to get your visitors’ attention and “reel them in”. If people like what they see and read on your site, they will want much more.
Along with marketing your products or services, a successful email list with a large number of subscribers can also be used to earn additional money. One way to do this is to sell ads. There are many corporations who will be willing to pay to put their banners and ads on a list with many subscribers. Don't sell or rent out your email list itself, as your subscribers may complain of getting spammed and you will lose their trust in you.
Affiliate with other companies that offer similar products or services to the ones on your web site. Have a P4P or pay for performance agreement with these other companies: with every click made on the link that directs or leads a subscriber from your list to their site, the company will pay you. Also ask for a percentage of actual sales made through your list, you can also use clickbank affiliates." guard your email list with your life because
it may very well be!

Tips to get repeat web traffic
Tips to Get Repeat Web Traffic
1. Update the pages on your website frequently. Stagnant sites are dropped by some search engines. You can even put a date counter on the page to show when it was last updated.
2. Offer additional value on your website. For affiliates and partners you can place links to their sites and products and ask them to do the same for you. You can also advertise their books or videos, if these products relate to your industry and are not in competition with your own product.
3. You can allow customers to ‘opt in’ to get discounts and special offers. Place a link on your site to invite customers to ‘opt in’ to get a monthly newsletter or valuable coupons.
4. Add a link to your primary page with a script ‘Book Mark or Add this site to your Favorites’.
5. Add a link ‘Recommend this site to a Friend’ so that the visitor can email your website link, with a prewritten title, “Thought you might be interested in this”, just by clicking on it.
6. Brand your website so that visitors always know they are on your site. Use consistent colors, logos and slogans and always provide a ‘Contact Us’ link on each page.
7. Create a ‘Our Policies’ page that clearly defines your philosophy and principles in dealing with your customers. Also post your privacy policy as well so that clients know they are secure when they visit your site.
8. Create a FAQ page which addresses most of the doubts and clarifications about your product or your company that are likely to be asked. This helps to resolve most of the customers doubts in their first visit to your site.
8. Ensure that each page on your website has appropriate titles and keywords so that your customer can find their way back to your site if they lose the book mark.
9. Never spam a client, who has opted for newsletters, with unsolicited emails. Later if they decide they want to ‘opt out’ of the mailings, be sure you honor their request and take them off the mailing list. They may still come back if they like your products. But they will certainly not come back if you continue to flood their email box with mails they no longer wish to receive.
