Have you ever been restricted from using the social media? or your site banned by the search engines?

Welcome.
I've been thinking about getting an email list for a while but seems like extra work for not too much engagement!
I understand your frustration, but with a good plan, the list is a great way of building an audience for your blog, besides social media networks, besides you can sell products directly to the list subscribers.
So, does email list guarantee that it'll give more effective communication with followers?
It is not a guarantee, but depending on how you use it, it is a great way of building trust, and even making sales to your audience.
Great tips. I know from experience that I visit more blogs from my mailbox than from any other place, so email list is very important.
Appreciated.
Thanks for reminding me why I need to hustle to build my email list!
