Methods you can use to build a responsive opt in mail list
Your website. Include an opt in form to the home page of your website. It is no longer enough to just ask them to opt in to your list. You need to give them something valuable in exchange for their emails e.g an ebook or useful software. There are two positions that work particularly well for opt in forms on a website.
- Above the fold:
This is the area of your webpage that is visible without having to scroll. The advantage of putting your opt in form above the fold is every visitor to that page will see the opt in form.
- At the end of your content:

, in exchange for their e mail address. If you have great web site content, this method works very well.
You can write a bunch of informative articles on some aspect of your niche. Your articles should act as a teaser to your readers. Distribute the articles via article submission sites and then have the articles link to a landing page that has an opt in form. Again, if the content of your article is informative and interesting, the readers will want to learn more and are thus in a pre-sold state
Joint Ventures:

You can then identify other internet marketers in a similar niche to yours and ask them if you could do a joint venture with them.
