The Quick Ways To Increase Your E-zines Subscriber Base

1. Give Incentives
Give people an incentive to subscribe to your e-zine. Offer
them a freebie if they subscribe. It could be a free e-book,
free report, free advertising, etc. Make sure the freebie will
attract your target audience.
      
   
2. Joint Venture
Joint venture with a similar e-zine. Combine your subscriber
bases together and publish one e-zine. Edit and publish
each issue together. You both will be promoting the e-zine
which means more subscribers.
      
   
3. Allow Archiving
Allow your subscribers to archive back issues of your
e-zine on their web site. They may need content for their
web site. If people visit their web site and like your e-zine,
they will subscribe.

   
4. Form An E-zine Ring
Form an e-zine ring. Team up with 4 to 10 similar e-zines.
All the publishers would agree to list each others e-zine
name and subscribing information in every issue. You could
call this section "Other Free E-zines You Might Enjoy"
      
   
5. Ask Subscribers
Ask subscribers to forward your e-zine to close friends,
family, or associates. If they enjoy your e-zine, they will
subscribe. It's almost like your subscribers are endorsing
your e-zine.
