Each Internet Marketer will tell you how crucial it is to build that list before you do anything else. The reason is that everything concerning marketing will navigate around a group or groups of online contacts. It's similar to commencing a new store and having nobody turn up for the event, that would be crazy right? Well it's similar for online marketing. Create your list first, then you have your first subscriber list to work from. Make the quality of what you offer GREAT and they will stay for more of what you offer. You start with something significant but strong in value and over deliver on quality. Your item or product can be on any topic, a little bit of research put into it first will lead to success at the end to ensure that it is a product or item that clients will purchase. Doing some KEYWORD RESEARCH, yes that's correct, I did say keyword research, to help you find or discover which idea will be the best and the most responsive to run with will set you up in a stronger position for success than most. Write down 20 ideas - anything you think you can comfortably and knowledgeably promote. Put some deep thought into this first step, it will determine what you will end up with. Keyword research the first 10. rnWhat you are looking for is around 15,000 Global Searches per month (around 500 searches a day) for any combination of the primary keyword and a secondary keyword for the same idea in total. You are looking for LOW competition. That's a strong contender. Write down the top 3 of those 10 idea's. Repeat the exercise with the second 10 idea's. Choose the top 3. Now you have the top 6 ideas and you want to reduce those further to just 2, maybe 3, depending on the success of your next search. Go to Market Samurai or any other Online Keyword Data Tool and research those 6. Looking for relevancy of your keyword or 2 keywords, traffic breakdowns, and confirming competition levels, which 2 come out on top? Choose one and get going. Researching will give you other idea's and cause you to see some things in a different light. It will also alert you to related keywords that might just be much better to use if the relevancy is there. All in all the best and greatest objective of keyword researching is just knowing whether the project you are about to invest so many hours into - will win - or lose - before you even start. Building a list will require an autoresponder which are easy to use. It's the same with anything you do, invest a little time once, into learning how to use it and you're off and running. An autoresponder will take the hard yards for you. You do not necessarily need a website, but having one makes it easier and more attractive. Websites are only a few dollars a month anyway, no more than 2 cups of coffee. So decide on your product, just a free report on any specific theme; it could be a natural remedy for arthritis or a solution for baldness, or maybe even on weight loss, although that's a fairly common market with fairly high competition, so this is where your research will come in. You might even have discovered something great that works on the Internet. You can sell that stuff with bonuses or offer it as a free report with a lead to something more substantial. The opportunities are endless. To start with, if you are completely new, you can start with free blogs or websites like Blogspot or Wordpress, or you can step right in with a purchased domain and invest in hosting. Once your site is ready to go, choose an autoresponder service like Aweber, or Getresponse. Whatever your choice though should be the one you keep using, it's difficult to change autoresponder services and can be messy. Most marketers usually just start using another service for a new project as there are one or two of them that provide more advanced services and cost much more too. But sometimes they are necessary. As a new internet marketer, you are bound to make errors in judgement but you will only make them once. Whether you are new or not though, List Building is something that anyone getting into email marketing needs to know, and, if you choose not to take the time to educate yourself, you will, one day in the not so distant future, be slapping yourself for not doing it. It's the concrete foundation before the building is constructed, its the boiling water before being tipped into the coffee cup and without your List, you will have no reason to market anything.
