Easy Ezine Promotion

If you have a website or e-business, you should definitely consider publishing an ezine. Once you have made the decision to publish an ezine and have decided on the content,you now must learn how to promote your newsletter. There are many easy and free waysto promote your new ezine.

Here are some of my favorites:

Ezine Directories

There are hundreds of ezine directories on the web in which you can list your ezine for FREE. You might be asked to run their ad in your ezine or on your site in return for the free service. This is a good idea anyway, because the more people that read the directory, the more people that will see YOUR listing. Here are a few to get you going.

Announcement Lists

Announcement lists are a great way to get the word out about your ezine. Subscribe to the lists and be sure to follow the guidelines for posting on each list. Once you get established on the lists, you should drop your postings to about once a month or every other week. This will prevent "overloading" people with your ad. Get started with these announcement lists.

Ad Swaps

Once you get your ezine started, you will want to get your ad in other quality publications. A good and economical way of doing this is by ad swapping. You agree to place another publisher's ad in your ezine and he/she places your ad in their ezine. This is a very effective way of gaining subscribers. Subscribe to these lists for finding publishers who want to swap ads.

Sigtags

Every time you send out your email you can be sending out an announcement about your ezine. Put a small but informative signature at the bottom of your email.

Example:

Terri Seymour My Own Ezine Subscribe Now for Up-to-Date Resources mailto:subscribe@myownezine.com

You can also put borders around your sigtag to bring more attention to it.

Write And Submit Articles

Just about the most important thing you should do to promote your business and your ezine is to write articles and submit them to other sites and ezines. In doing this you will build a reputation as an expert in your field. People will come to trust you and acknowledge your business.

A couple of great sites to help you with this:

Publishing and promoting an ezine is a lot of work, but the rewards are well worth it. You build relationships with your subscribers, other publishers and writers. Publishing your own ezine gives you a feeling of accomplishment and purpose. These benefits plus the unlimited possibilities for income, make all the effort worthwhile.
