Time for the 5th and final article in my step-by-step list building series. In the first 4 articles I have focused on setting up a full list building system, monetizing the sign up process, and putting up a great follow up series, featuring good affiliate programs (you will find links to the first 4 articles at the end of this post). Today we’re going to take what you’ve learned so far, and explore how you can take it to the next level.
So How Do You Get Filthy Rich On The Internet?
Following the steps in the first 4 articles is a very good start. Building your
own list is extremely important if you want to be successful in internet marketing, and you can make a very decent income just from promoting affiliate products… But in order to take your internet marketing career to the next level (the filthy rich part), you really need to have your own products. As you are about to discover, setting up your own product isn’t that difficult. But first lets take a look at some of the benefits from having your own products.

You have been building your list for some time now. Perhaps you have 100 subscribers to your list, or maybe you have 500 or 5000.
You have heard that some internet marketers can earn up to one dollar for every name on their list, per month, but you aren’t near that. Why?
One of the most important things to know and remember about list building is that list building is not just about assembling a collection of emails. If that were the case, you could buy a list of one million and make one million per month, right?

In my previous list building article I was discussing how to drive massive amounts of traffic to your squeeze page. Though very effective, the traffic sources I listed were also very beginner friendly. Today I’m going to take it to the next level and show you have to drive even more traffic, with some more advanced resources – note that these aren’t supposed to replace the resources in the last article, they are meant to be add-ons to your overall traffic strategy.
But before we get started on that we need to take a close look at your conversion tracking…

What’s the easiest way to make your site visitors come back for more and more and more?
The answer? Spend just a couple of hours each week building a massive website filled with content? content? content.
You heard me say it over and over again? content is number one. The more beneficial information you offer to your site readers, the more they will want to return to see what’s new. The idea here is to capture the attention of your visitors and hold on to it. This can be done in a number of ways.
1. Use free content
This is the cheapest way to find content for your site. There are literally tons of websites, known as article directories, where you can source free articles covering a wide variety of topics. The articles are posted with the understanding that the members can use them as they please, just as long as you do not edit or delete the resource box. The most preferred way to getting free content, is to join an affiliate program that offers free, pre-written content for members to use.

Email marketing is something that can be easy or hard to implement; it depends on you. The basis of email marketing is a list; though there are many companies selling email lists, it is better for you to create your own email list. If and when you build your own list, you develop cordial relationships with these people which make email marketing easier. So the first step to effective email marketing is building your own list.
Though auto responders have their own personalization feature, it is better for you to be personal in your emails. Speak directly to the recipient of the email so that the email doesn’t look like it has come from an auto responder, but directly from you. this is the second step to effective email marketing.
Content is an important aspect of effective email marketing. Make sure you have content that people are interested in reaching and not something that will make them bored about reading. Just consider how you would accept the email if you received it, and whether you would read it if you received the email. If you would read the email if you received it, then it is more than likely that your recipients too would read it.
