If you want to increase your subscribers, here is a list of what you need to get ready.
Use your notebook or a text file of your choice to keep this information readily available at the click of your mouse.
Be sure to set-up a file with all the information you will need that you can copy and paste, then you can just pop your information into the forms without retyping them every time.
Have Headlines ready 5, 7 and 10 words. Don’t make it sound like an advertisement, just describe what your newsletter offers (because many ezine directories will not list your ezine if it sounds like an ad for your products). Simply use the name of your Newsletter and a couple of descriptive words.
i.e.) If your newsletter is called Bike Racing Weekly you could say… Bike Racing Weekly guide to getting ready before you ride. or: Bike Riding Tips for safe riding.
Have descriptions ready, “again”, be sure to only describe what you offer in your newsletter and DO NOT submit an ad for your products or services.
i.e.) Read articles on safe bike riding, using the right gear, exercises to prepare you for injury free riding and eating right to improve your endurance and health.
Be sure to have many descriptions ready ranging from 10 words to 100 words. Always title or number each of them for easier tracking.
Example
10 word description
15 word description
25 word description
35 word description
50 word description
75 word description
100 word description
