Perhaps more than any other marketing strategy you employ on your blog, e-mail marketing is the most effective way to build relationships with your customers and to drive conversions. It’s also an excellent way to ensure repeat traffic and repeat business.
In order to create a powerful e-mail marketing list, you first must build up your e-mail subscribers. Here are a few of the most effective strategies for helping you get more subscribers for your blog fast.
Make Attractive Opt-In Boxes
Your opt-in box is your gateway to your e-mail list. Slapping up a generic text box without any color or styling is unlikely to get very many responses. You need to draw attention to the box and make it inviting to encourage people to signup.
Create a unique box that matches the style of your blog design while also standing out enough to get noticed. Use a quirky design or bright colors. The key is to get noticed while also maintaining a professional look.
Include a Unique Call to Action
Many websites use a generic call to action, such as “Sign up for e-mail alerts” or “Click here to subscribe to my e-mail list.” While this is straight-forward, it’s not very inviting. Instead, create a unique call to action that is related to the theme of your blog.
For example, if you run a weight loss blog, you could include a call to action that says something like “Learn more about how to burn belly fat” or “Get recipes to help you get the body of your dreams.”
