Building a list with your blog couldn’t be simpler or easier (especially when you’re using ListHero to help you!)

Here’s all you need to do step-by-step…

1. Make sure you have a newsletter created, in this blog you’ll find out where to get content from and I also give you a newsletter template you can use.

Here are a few of those posts I’ve made that’ll help you with this…

Pick up a free newsletter or ezine template here

Here you’ll find out where to get your newsletter or ezine content from

2. Make sure you have an autoresponder that allows subscriptions via email, I recommend using GetResponse.

3. Make sure you have a blog installed on your website. This does assume you (a) have a subject to talk about (b) know how to purchase a domain name (c) know how to post to a blog (d) know how to add some code to your blog template.

If you don’t know anything about (a) through to (d) then I recommend starting out here:
http://BigSellingNiches.com …get the free niche marketing ebook and also picking up your copy of the Niche Checklist Workbook where you can find out what subject you should be focusing your blog (and your newsletter on).

To find out anything else you need to know I recommend joining this forum where you’ll be able to get lots of free advice and help in getting started:  http://www.warriorforum.com/forum/

Ok, let’s move on…

4.  What you need to do next is to create a free ListHero account which you can do here:
http://ListHero.com

Follow all of the 7 steps you’re given (this is critical) watch the videos you’ll find on each step (if you get stuck). Make sure you write a really great advertisement for your newsletter (this gets you more subscribers). Think of your ListHero advertisement as a classified ad that you might see in a newspaper. It needs to grab attention, generate interest, create a desire and make people want to take action.

5. Copy the ListHero code you’re given on step 4 to a text file and save it to your computers desktop.

6. Go here and create a ListHero popin window for free:
http://popinbuilder.icoder.com/

7. Add your ListHero code and adjust the settings so that your popin window appears as you want it to. Then take the code you’re given from the Popin builder website and add it to the most appropriate page template for your blog.

8. So now whenever someone visits your blog you’ll be building your list because they’ll see your popin window appear containing your ListHero squeeze box. Then over time as you build up more ad exposure credits your list building goes to autopilot as you newsletter or ezine ad is seen on countless other websites (thanks to ListHero).

Here’s a video that explains how ListHero can work for you…
