Ezine Hosting
Where To Start?
Ezine Publishing Information
A lot of folks think that there's no need to bother with ezine hosting. However, I beg to differ. You MUST have a list of customers. You want to build a long term, successful online business right? YOU must work towards having your own list! It's that simple.
What is Ezine Hosting?
Think of ezine hosting like this. Imagine you have 100 people on your email list and you want to get a message to all. So you sit down, compose your email and then wack all your friend's emails in the BCC (blind carbon copy) part of your email inbox.
You hit send and your email flies out there and drops into everyone's email boxes. Simple, right? Now let's crank up things a bit. Say you want to send everyone an email on Tuesday next week. Not Monday or Wednesday, but Tuesday. Except... you can't figure out how. What to do?
This is where ezine hosting is so beneficial. You see, when you use an online ezine or autoresponder service like Aweber for example, you can send out emails (your ezine) ANYTIME you wish. You write your emails NOW, and the ezine host will send them for YOU next week, next month, or even next year!
Starting An Ezine?
When you're starting an ezine there's lot of benefits to using an ezine host. Yep, there's some simple things you need to consider so folks don't accuse YOU of spamming. (Yes, it does happen). By using a business like Aweber at around $20 a month, you can rest assured that your emails will go out fully legal and NOT get caught in any spam traps!
Also, for example, Aweber allow your list or customers to unsubscribe with one click, and lets you compose your emails or ezine without triggering any spam filters. You can even use html emails with fancy ezine templates or just simple text emails too. (Your customers will appreciate that you can do this!)
Other Benefits To Ezine Hosting
Sometimes you'll want to send or 'broadcast' an email to everyone right now. You know - you might be running a 24HR special or have 4 hours before your prices go up. You can set up a broadcast email to go out this minute or at a specific time. These babies can make you some serious bank, believe me!
Here's a rundown of what Aweber offers:
- Boost your website's traffic
- Convert more sales
- Top notch customer support (try it!)
- Precise subscriber tracking and targeting
- Html ezine templates or text email options
Imagine for a minute that you set up a years worth of emails to go out. That's only 48 emails if you send one a week. A good half of those you load with valuable content, while the rest are affiliate based promotions. Think that's going to help your bottom line? You betcha!
