In the previous post, you learnt about how to migrate Http to Https. Now, it is about E-Mail marketing. Do not think it as a rocket science. If you want to take your blog to the next level, you need to build list. You may ask us what list? Have you heard about the subscribers? They are the returning visitors. That means they will keep coming to your blog for every post published.
When someone subscribes to your blog, they will get notified whenever you publish a new post. They will get notifications via Email. How can someone subscribe to your blog? You need to create a subscription or optin form. Check our subscription form in the sidebar.
Apart from the subscription form, you can send newsletters to your subscribers. Be it an announcement, update or offer, you can let them know by mailing them. This is called email marketing. It is difficult for the new bloggers to afford for the email marketing services. This problem was understood by the some companies and they started offering free plans.
The main purpose of the email marketing is to keep visitors engaging and increasing conversions.
