Submitting your ezine to each ezine or newsletter directory is an important task if you want your publication to be found. Especially, if you want advertisers for your ad spots, you should submit your newsletter to each directory you can find. Another aspect is that a lot of article authors search for publishers to submit their articles to.

You should prepare a file with the most important details about your publication like descriptions (long and short versions) , information about advertising, guidelines for article submissions and an email address for subscribing to your newsletter.

Use the following checklist to help you.

• Prepared your personal details for readiness in inputting.

• Prepare a description for your e-zine of around 300 words.

• Prepare a short description of your ezine of around 50 words.

• Prepare a brief description of 15 words or less

• List 6 appropriate Keywords for your e-zine.

• Pick the best /most likely “categories” that your ezine would be listed under

• Write down the name of your e-zine

• No. of subscribers.

• Publishing frequency

• Date Founded

• A url where people can subscribe to

• An email address that people can subscribe to

• Instructions people need to do unsubscribe.

It is important that you announce your ezine regularly in these announcement groups as it can bring you a steady flow of new subscribers to your mailing list. You have to look at their guidelines before posting, though. I recommend that you get a mail merge program so you can automate these submissions by preparing your announcement once and then just click on the "send" button. MailKing 3.0 by Messagemedia is an excellent and easy to use piece of email marketing software and can do this submission job for you.

As you can see, most of these ezine announcement groups are hosted at Yahoogroups and Topica. Yahoogroups has taken over some groups which were called Egroups before they took them over. Smartgroups.com also has some of these announcement lists so all in all, you have quite a lot to prepare in order to grow your mailing list .

Announcing a New Article

Writing free ezine articles is one of the best and cheapest promotion methods to get new subscribers for your mailing list. It also makes you known as an expert in your field and that is it what you need to become well known and trusted . Effective email marketing will make you sales. And best of all, you do not only promote your ezine but your web site as well . Ezine publishers are always looking for fresh and original content to use in their newsletters. Your resource box at the end will do all the selling . It's like a little classified ad for you.

Many writers, like Terry Telford for example, use their articles as their main promotional technique. You get your advertising message directly delivered to you prospects' mailboxes and that is email marketing at its' best !

If you submit content to each listed article directory and database regularly, you will often find it published on other sites as well. This, in return also helps you to improve your link popularity for the search engines and will grow your mailing list almost automatically.
