Yes, visitors were coming to the site, but the opt-in list was growing painfully slow. A new approach was called for, and a friend recommended trying a co-registration effort. And darned if it didn't work! With both free and paid variations available, co-registration is based on the practice of presenting a prospect with multiple opt-in opportunities (usually subscriptions or memberships) at the same time. The Free Way: The free method of co-registration involves a cooperative effort between competitors, where each offers their list the chance to sign up for a competing ezine(s), often on a confirmation page after a purchase is made. In this way, members of the co-op 'share' each others traffic. You can think of this as a type of joint venture. It works best when you partner with one or two other ezine publishers, offering 3-4 ezine options. You must limit the choices, as too many can be overwhelming to the prospect. The Paid Way: There are a number of services popping up across the Internet where an ezine publisher can pay to have their ezine posted with others, in a directory setting. A prospect visiting these sites will be presented with a number of sign up opportunities to opt-in. These services are also known as pay-per-subscriber directories. However, as with other forms of paid promotions, before investigating a paid co-registration service, you MUST have a firm understanding of your numbers. Do you know how much a new subscriber is worth to you? Once you've grown your opt-in list to around 500, run your conversion rates; know how much you can afford per lead beforehand to break even. If you're brand new and haven't yet gotten a firm sense of your return-on-investment (ROI), wait until you do before signing up. Without an understanding of your revenue and conversion, you could end up overpaying. Remember, the internet is a numbers game - make sure you know yours before proceeding. When considering a co-registration service, there are a few critical questions you must ask: *Does the service provide only opt-in traffic? If it doesn't, move on. The more targeted the lead, the better. *Can the new leads be automatically subscribed/added to your opt-in list? Or will the service give you a list of new subscribers that you'll need to input manually? *If you're paying, try to avoid buying leads that have been shared too heavily with ezines that have a target market identical to yours. *Only use those services that allow potential subscribers to read short descriptions of the ezines being offered - again, this serves to sort, target and pre-qualify the potential opt-in traffic. The closer their interests match your offered information, the better. *Avoid those services that collect email addresses based on promotions and/or contests. These leads are not as qualified, since subscribers often opt-in only to win a prize. Their interest may be short-term, while you are looking to build a long-term, lasting customer relationship.
