Building a subscriber list is one of the most important parts of marketing your business online. Most Internet markers will agree that keeping in touch with your subscriber base will increase credibility, trust, and sales.
The first thing you must do is to put a subscribe form on every page of your Web Site. Doing this alone will accomplish the goal of building your subscriber base. You should have your designer implement this into your web page plans. The best place is on the top of your page for best results we call this the top fold. This is the best place because most visitors will see it when they arrive. Don’t forget to entice them to subscribe with a free article or report.
Moreover, you will have to work at building your subscriber base consistently by writing articles, submitting them to directories, other publishers, and delivering them to your potential customers. Building your subscriber base will take time and effort on your part.
You'll need to utilize a mailing service to deliver and maintain your subscriber list unless you choose to do it in house which most people do. You may check with your local ISP Internet Service Provider on the price they would charge. There are a few services you can use check the following links.

Don’t buy email addresses from someone who has a million or so addresses. You’ll just get yourself into big trouble and waste your money. Ask where the email addresses came from.
Finally, give something useful to visitors and a reason for them to sign up to your ezine/newsletter. Free reports are an excellent way to get individual visitors to sign up for your newsletters. In addition, a free book or some other free promotional tool will work just as well.
Be sure to add a privacy policy that lets the subscriber know what you'll be doing with their address and information collected from your site. Again, you’ll want to build trust these are real people not just an email
address.
