Discover the power of list building by growing a massive list of subscribers to your website or blog newsletter.

List building is one of the most important components to creating a successful website, blog, brand or business on the internet. The sad truth is that more than 70% of the people that come to your site for the first time are going leave and never come back. This is simply due to there being way too much content on the internet and people easily forget where they've been. The only way for you to keep this audience coming back time and time again is through the use of an email list and newsletter.

Good news! As one of the top bloggers in the world today, I know what it takes to grow a large mailing list and set up the necessary call to actions on your site that get people to subscribe fast. Gone are the days when a simple subscription form on the side of your page works. Now it's all about giving away something for free, having exciting email subscription forms and also using popup windows and exit-intent windows to get a visitor to take action before leaving your site.

Even more exciting news, this is going to be easy enough for anyone to set up themselves. Starting a list or newsletter of your own is very simple, fast and affordable. All it takes is getting set up with a list hosting service and connecting a few plugins and widgets to your site. These are all things that I cover within the video tutorials. Also, remember that that is "List Building 101", so we aren't going to be covering extremely detailed or advanced topics -- just the basics of what you need to get started with your own list.

Let's take a look at the different topics covered in this list building course.

How a eMail Marketing and Mailing List Work - Just like a website or blog has web hosting, a mailing list needs to have a list hosting service.
