List Building – Why Build a List Online?

List building has become the backbone of many internet marketers’ incomes over the last few years.

But why should you build a list or lists? Over the course of the last ten years, people have developed products to sell online and have created fortunes targeting the right people to who to sell. By creating a product and an exciting sales page, you can drive visitors to the sales page, convert a percentage of them, and make money. And that is how the big dogs are doing it right now.

With the advent of high-speed internet, the average surfer moves through sites much faster, decreasing the conversion rate of the sales pages for first-time visitors. Even in the traditional sales world, experts tell us that it takes a potential buyer from 7 to 10 exposures to the product before they purchase. But with high speed internet, people are clicking out of sites if they don’t load fast enough – so you really have to be savvy to get the business – and building a list is one good way to do it.

So how do you duplicate that online? Obviously one method would be to continue to drive surfers to our sites, hoping that once they have seen your ad enough times, they will eventually purchase. However, you generally pay a price for each visitor that comes to your web site. But the alternative, the best alternative, is to build a list – so you can repeatedly send those customers back to your web site.

So what if you were to capture the name and email address of each of our visitors, and then send them a friendly reminder to re-visit our site, perhaps once every few days, thus giving them the chance to visit your site 7-10 times and make the purchase? That is the wisdom and the power of the opt in email list.

So that is exactly what you do. You design your web sites in such a fashion that visitors are compelled to give you the needed information, and you begin to develop a list of like-minded individuals online who want to know more about you and your products.

List building is one of the keys to internet income in the future.
