For WordPress Bloggers: Email List Building Ideas

It's a frightening thought that over 90% of bloggers will fail to fully monetize their blog.
Many WordPress bloggers have the erroneous belief that if they just keeping posting daily they will get all the traffic and sales they need to make a profit.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that.
If I told you that, to be successful, you need to learn as much as you can about email list building ideas, would you keep reading? Many so-called experts will advocate setting up RSS every time you create your WordPress blog.
That is fine but it is the least effective method when it comes to the all important task of building lists.
Do yourself a huge favor and, if you do not have an autoresponder, free or fee paying, then get one as soon as you can.
An email autoresponder is vital to your business and is one of the easiest ways of building a positive relationship with your visitors.
There has been enough research conducted to show that customer focused content and well timed follow-up are important factors by which subscribers and visitors measure the credibility and the authority of the blogger and whether they would wish to continue to interact with or subscribe to that blog.
Using autoresponders is only one of many email list building ideas but an important one nonetheless.
Some of the key benefits to WordPress bloggers are:
  • Autoresponders provide an automated interaction with customers and subscribers.
  • They help to enhance customer loyalty.
  • They can let everyone on your list know you have received their emails and even if you are not able to reply at that time, you will do so as soon as possible.
  • If you are fortunate to receive a large amount of emails daily, there is no way you can effectively handle them manually.
    That is where an auto responder comes to your rescue.
  • You can send advance notices to subscribers and, hopefully, potential buyers.
    Knowing they will be contacted when you are available minimizes the risk of them going elsewhere.
  • Build confidence with buyers through purchase confirmation messages maintaining your credibility and professionalism.
  • Effective use of autoresponders by delivering informative helpful content through broadcasts and providing continued support will lead to repeat sales.
If you are a blogger, recognize the power of these email list building ideas.
Set up and manage your email autoresponder to build a loyal customer base and continually satisfy them.
