Expand Your Newsletter Reader Base

If you haven’t already started submitting your newsletter to ezine directories, you’re missing out on some extra traffic. While a directory won’t make you rich and famous, it can certainly help bump your readership up a bit and since it requires only a few minutes of your time, why not submit your newsletter?

Most ezine directories are free and it is usually not worth your while to pay for an account upgrade. If you do a quick search on Google for ezine or email newsletter directories, you’ll end up with literally hundreds. There’s no need to submit to all of them at once, but even doing two or three a day is a good way to get your name out there and publicize your newsletter.

Directories, though not the best way to gain subscribers, are an extra way to get free publicity that most newsletter owners forget about or ignore. However, when someone is looking for information on a specific topic, they are likely to end up at one of these directories and if you aren’t on the list . . . they’ll be subscribing to the competition!

While some ezine directories will require you to sign up for an account, others will allow you to submit your newsletter quickly and easily by filling out a few forms. You will need to have a page specifically designed for signups on your site and direct anyone from the directory to this page. Apart from that, some basic information about the subject and frequency of your newsletter will be required and that’s about it.

Taking a minute or two a day to submit your newsletter to ezine directories is a sure way to boost your readership. Go ahead and try it!
