A large, healthy email subscriber list is absolutely fundamental when it comes to running successful email marketing campaigns. However, the majority of email marketers declare that they still struggle to grow their list. This is why we have launched the Get Response List Building Program – an action-based course to build your list with up to 10,000 subscribers. I also decided to browse our blog history and compile a few posts and ideographic in order to offer you a large collection of information on list building.How to Increase Your Email Subscribers 2015.
The GetResponse List Building Program
Since most email marketers claim that building a list of engaged subscribers is the most challenging task, we’ve decided to start the new year with a different approach. This month we have launched the Get Response List Building Program – a comprehensive, action-based course that will help you build a list of up to 10,000 subscribers in either 90 or 180 days.
The course is free for all Get Response customers and provides exclusive and useful information on how to increase the reach of emails, boost conversions, gain engaged subscribers, and how to combine all online tools available to maximize the effectiveness of email marketing. Each session consists of a video tutorial, presentation (pdf), and article (pdf).
Every participant that completes the program receives a Get Response University Certificate of Performance, but most importantly – his email list is substantially bigger.
Install Welcome Gate
Welcome Gate is one of the best and free list building plugins available in the market.
What it does is it creates a beautiful squeeze page on your WordPress site and attracts more people to subscribe to your email list.
This plugin redirects the first time visitors to a great looking landing page (without showing a popup). People are only redirected to the squeeze page when they go to your home page.
Use a popup (light box)
Like it or not, popup’s work. They do a fantastic job in increasing your conversion rates on your email list.
Using cute pop up software like Pippity, Pop up domination, etc won’t hurt your blog readership, instead they boost your email subscribers. According to a recent survey, the sites that use popup’s dramatically improved their list to 400%. It says it all!

Show Proof and Build Trust
No one likes to give their email address if you don’t provide any proof (be it testimonials from others, reviews of your freebies or anything that makes your offer unique).
The best way to capture your first time visitors’ attention is through building credibility.
You can build instant trust by doing these things:
- Make your blog design appealing (it instantly creates a professional feel)
- Show testimonials from real people (ask people to review your product who already have downloaded your stuff; if they like your freebie, they’ll happily do it)
- Get more blog comments on your blog posts (after all, no one likes to feel they’ve landed on a ghost town)
- Show the number of downloads (if you got more than 1000 downloads), it can dramatically attract more people to get their hands on your freebies.
