Below you will find 4 simple ways to start building a list.

1. Create a Free Viral Report

Offering a free viral report is a quick way to start building a list.  Internet marketers use this method repeatedly.  Why?  Because it’s highly effective.  It’s as simple as creating a short high quality report and submitting it to various directories and other fellow marketers.  Simply asking other internet marketers if they’d be interested in offering your free report to their list is a HUGE opportunity.  Make sure you include a link to a your squeeze page in your report.  Your squeeze page is where you’ll obtain the visitors name and email address while offering them more valuable information for free. Once your report spreads like wildfire, you’ll see clicks to your squeeze page in no time.

2. Adswaps

Adswaps have the ability to be quite effective.  If you aren’t familiar with this, it’s simply the process of one internet marketer advertising their offer on a fellow marketer’s list, and vice versa.  Create an adswap which sends people to the squeeze page which I talked about a few moments ago.  This method will only work if you already have some type of list in place.  But once you have a list, this is a fantastic and profitable way to continuously build it bigger.

3. Offer a Free WSO

Offering a free WSO is an extremely effective way to build a mailing list you can send offers to.  WSO is the short title of a Warrior Special Offer, part of the online internet marketing community Warrior Forum.  If you haven’t spent time hanging around and learning at the Warrior Forum, now is the time to do so.  Once you become familiar with how the forum works, register an account and become part of the community.

Create a high quality product and offer it as a freebie in exchange for their email address.  You can even create an additional profit stream by offering a special one time offer on the back end of your squeeze page.  Now you will have offered a high quality product for free, obtained an email address to add to your mailing list, and have the potential of making some money from the one time offer at the same time.

4. Solo Ads

The last method I’m going to mention is solo ads.  I personally don’t use this method often, but I am aware of its effectiveness.  A solo ad is simply a paid ad on a fellow internet marketers list.  Again, you’ll be using your squeeze page as part of the ad so that you can obtain an email address to build your list.  If you do choose this method, remember to advertise to a list which is related to the niche your marketing in.
