Have you ever heard the saying that “The money is in the list” ? This simply points to the fact that building a list is like building a reliable source of income. That’s not all!
Your list is your marketplace where you can always knock with a carton of products and be sure to find happy buyers. The more targeted your list, the more money you can make out of it.
In this post, I point out Email Marketing as one of the rock solid ways to make money online. If you are trying to make money online, I encourage you start building your list (if you are not already doing it).
Your list is also an unfailing source of traffic!
Recently, there have been cries over Google’s changes in search technologies. We cannot fully have control over social media either. Facebook keeps changing its terms and making things more and more complex. SEO has become so erratic. Principles and methods are getting broken every now and then. In this uncertainty, your list remains the only steady source of traffic. Start building your list today!
Choosing an Autoresponder
There are tons of Autoresponders out there and making the right choice is the first step to success. While the price tag is an important factor to consider, a lot other factors over weigh. These include:
- User friendliness,
- Storage capacities,
- Mailing limitations,
- Templates,
- Spam filtering,
- Third party integration,
- Stats and click tracking,
- Up time,
- Customer service,
- Testimonials
- Etc
AWeber is my choice.
One of the key things I resolved to do this year is start building a list. After reading and doing some findings about the most popular autoresponders in the market today, AWeber caught my interest.
AWeber and Third-party Integration.
Integrating AWeber with WordPress, Paypal, Facebook Fanpages, Clickbank,CJ and a myriad of other applications including shopping carts is with a few clicks. What this means is AWeber helps you automatically build a buyers’ list from most of the commonly used shopping scripts and platforms today.
AWeber proves it to thousands of businesses every day.

Hi Shahzad,
Thanks for your comment. I hope you are seeing success with Getresponse.
Good luck bro
I totally agree with you Enstine. While some people may argue that other auto-responders are better, it really doesn’t matter which one you use as long as you’re using one! Getting started with building your list right away is very important to a blogger to make money early in the game!

Hey Wade,
Thanks for your comment. I’m liking the list building thing and hope to get into it more and more
Hope you have a nice week
Great post, Enstine. I totally agree with you. Your list is the most reliable source of traffic you have and is your biggest business asset. That’s why all of my inbound traffic generation efforts are focused around solely building my list. Your list is basically your entire business. If Twitter, Facebook, or even your blog were to disappear, you’d still be in business because you have your list in tact.
Thanks for sharing your insights about this topic with our community. I appreciate it!

Hi Ti,
Thanks for your bright comment and thanks for sharing this on social media. I’m impressed.
I do really hope to see you again here Ti
You are right Enstine, the money is in the list and for the longest time I would hear that but no one taught me how to communicate with them. Oh yeah, I was told to promote to them but not how to communicate with them. Once you have that down then that’s when the money will come but I really don’t believe until that time.
I’m also with Aweber and I’ve used Get Response in the beginning and I hated it. They may be a little cheaper but there is a reason for it. You can’t go wrong with Aweber and you’re right, just get started.

Building a list is one thing and communicating with your subscribers is another. Poor communication can easily burn out your list.
Thanks for the tips on your blog. I’m learning more!
there are also some good autoresponders like Mailchimp but aweber is the best around

That’s correct bro.
Does Mailchimp accept Internet Marketing mails and promotions?
I’d say Email marketing is the best one I’ve tried. Sounds classic, but very reliable one.

Hey Sarah,
Thanks for your comment.
You are correct about Email Marketing too.
Hope to see you again h ere
I am with EM (Enstine Muki) on this one aweber is the only way to go! Man, you nailed it on this post! If more people would just read this stuff and take action I would read more about people succeeding instead of failing due to not knowing where to start or trying to move to the next thing that might work.

Hi Sepna,
Thanks for your comment
Hope you are starting with AWeber. Please use my affiliate link
Great post, . I totally agree with you.
Hi Enstine,
I agree with you that the money is in the list, but it all depends on how you handle your list. Treat them as a human being and they will like and trust you but when you treat them as your money making machine, you’re sure to get many unsubscriptions.
So my point is that its not all about building a list, but knowing how to keep and maintain it.
I also love aweber and getresponse but i don’t have the money now as I’m not making anything yet from my blog. My plan is to switch to any of the two ones i start making some dough to pay the bills. I will rather stick with a free one for now.
Thanks for sharing man.

You can quickly burn out your list if you treat it the wrong way. It’s good to build a relationship first.

I use Aweber, offer a free product and building my list. I love how easy it is to use. And it is so nice to have a list…even if it is still small.

Hi Rudraksh,
Thanks for the comment. Hope you have a great weekend
Heard a lot of good reviews about aweber but have you ever tried other email responder such as mailchimp, their service looks cheap and the same as aweber though I really don’t know the limitations between them.
Hi Arwin,
Mailchimp does not allow internet marketing campaigns. That’s what makes it not good for me
Hey Enstine,
True true. A tightly targeted list is the best asset, especially when we regularly entertain and educate our audience.
I like doing both in every email, which also makes offering something at the end no big deal. It really is okay to sell every day when people love what they’re receiving.

I currently use Aweber to manage my list and I have subscriptions set up in two ways 1) to subscribe to the blog and 2) to subscribe to receive a free party checklist and tips report. I looked at a few ways to do this and i definately thought Aweber was the best way to go
Catherine recently posted..Heart Shaped Chocolates
Hi Cat,
I personally think it’s the right step you took to sign up to AWeber. That’s a high end autoresponder.
Yes, your 2 ways make sense to me. I just signed up to it and I’m see some perfectly cool ways to play around with lists.
Oh! we are 02 and Val’s day is just a few days away. Thanks for the info on the blog
your blog really attractive, it gives me an inspiration for me to apply into my blog … thanks:)
Hey, you can start blogging. Everyone can do it. Let me know if I can help
I use MailChimp and am s-l-o-w-l-y growing a mailing list. Aweber sounds like a great system, but it costs more than I can justify paying with my current list. Someday . . .

Good to hear you are growng Astro. I hope MailChimp is good too. Good luck with it
Thanks for the great article. I’m always looking for ways to increase traffic to my blog. I have actually heard about using email lists before but I haven’t exactly been successful with it. I did try Aweber but I just wasn’t getting enough people to justify the cost. I guess I just don’t get enough traffic to my blog yet.
