Have you ever been restricted from using the social media? or your site banned by the search engines? Getting banned either by the social media or search engines means that the only way you can get traffic to your site is through your email subscribers. Having an email list gives you an upper hand when it comes to controlling who visits your site and when. There several reasons why a blogger or business person needs to start building an email list now as enumerated below:
How to get started with Building an email list
For you to start building an email list, you need an email service provider to collect the emails and to send people emails from. These emails include automated emails where you write once and set it up to run on autopilot or broadcasts which you write and send immediately to many subscribers. I recommend GetResponse because it is easy to use, affordable and they have trial offer where you can use and test their services free of charge.

I have been working really hard on growing my email list - work in progress but getting there!
Hi Katie, thanks for visiting and comments. Welcome.
I strongly agree with you but I still find it very hard to actually build one. I even tried giving away free ebooks but it did not go through that well. I for myself know that I very rarely subscribe so I get why others won't also. Any suggestions on how to get them to subscribe?

If you check on my blog, I have a call to action Box, it is working well. There is no week that goes by, without getting new subscribers. Try to install a call to action, then put the URL of your subsriber form into it. Currently am using Boxzilla, its kind of a plugin.
The first point is very important. If every blogger thought that way, they'd all pay more attention to their lists!
Hi, Yes, many people overlook the list, if they only knew what the list holds, they will start building it immediately.
Building an email list is definitely key to having success as a blogger as well as a business. Effective way to reach people!

Any marketer knows that "The Money is in the LIST!"
