In this article I am going to go over why I think that article marketing is a better way to build a list than many other ways. I am sure that this will convince you that it is a really good way. I have a really high traffic site. It gets between 15,000 and 30,000 visitors a month. Initially I added a subscription box near the top and only got a few leads a month. I then proceeded to add an unblockable popup and was getting roughly 10 to 15 subscribers a day.

Now if you think about those statistics they do not mean much. At least 15,000 visitors and very few actually subscribe to the newsletter. To me a much more efficient way of building a list is to have a mini site. Basically what this consists of is a squeeze page and a sales page. Yes, you read that statement right. Why do you want to make your life complicated?

This method works extremely well with article marketing. you write articles and submit them to all the major article directories. You then include a link to your squeeze page in your bio. When somebody reads your article they will most likely click on your link going through to your squeeze page.

Now what really makes this a powerful list building technique is that unlike search engines where the visitor accidentally stumbled onto your web page there is a very good chance that the reader has read several of your articles first. So this means that there is a much bigger chance that they actually will purchase something from you.
