Why You Should Publish an Ezine
You can make money on the Internet without your own product. In fact, there are thousands who do exactly that. One way to do this is to create and publish your own ezine also known as an electronic newsletter.
For you to publish an ezine, requires very few tools. You create your content on regularly and send to your subscribers. Using an autoresponder with a broadcast feature, greatly simplifies this task and also allows you to schedule issues in advance, so with a little effort you could have an entire year of emails ready to go.
Ezine publishers are environmentally friendly as they don’t use paper, they’re sent electronically. Everyone is used to subscribing to ezines of interest and getting them in their inboxes. Ordinary individuals can create spectacular ezines in a particular niche which have a large and faithful following.
The cost of setting up an ezine is practically nil. You need a page where people can sign up to join your mailing list. As offering an ezine on it’s own is probably not enough these days to get people to part with their email address, find a free giveaway you can offer them in exchange for their details.
You can get great articles and content cheaply or for free if you don’t want to create all of your own. You can offer ‘guest’ spots and ask for authors, or choose from the thousands of articles on article directories. You can get your articles written by a ghostwriter and claim copyright or you can purchase PLR articles.
- Ezines with a good sized subscriber list can attract advertisers and you can make money selling space in your ezine.
- You can find affiliate products in your niche that you can promote and make money from commissions when anyone purchases the products through your link.
The benefits of having an opt-in list of subscribers who are interested in what you have to tell them is that they are more likely to be loyal to you. They have more trust in you and therefore are better prospects. The conversion rates for sales to these prospects is much higher than you will get from your website.
You don’t have to create your own product or any support for it and you can organize your ezine issues through an autoresponder so you aren’t tied to your desk every day, or week or however often you send out your issues. You can make money fairly passively by recommending products and selling ad space. Publishing your own ezine can be one of the wisest and more profitable decisions you can make given the impressive marketing power you can capture and use to make money online.
