To do email marketing, Internet gurus usually start with a web page called a 'squeeze' page or lead capture page. Capture the information of the visitors to your website by getting them to register or opt-in. This data is stored in an emailing system called an autoresponder and once they are inside your autoresponder, you can do email marketing to these leads or prospects over and over again.

Social networking sites are good options to build a list for email marketing. Internet gurus like to use Facebook and Myspace. Another method is video, where you create a series of videos and post them on YouTube and other video sites. These videos will have a link pointing viewers to your 'squeeze' page. You can also record content on audio and post them on podcasting sites like iTunes with your website address at the end of the audio to point people there.

The third method to build a list for email marketing is article marketing, which is very effective for branding. Write a 300 to 500 word article with your website address at the bottom, post it to article marketing websites and direct readers back to your 'squeeze' page.

Internet gurus also like to do a lot of joint ventures (JVs) where you promote someone else's products and vice versa. JVs can help you build a huge list within a very short period of time. JVs are a no-cost, high-profit margin method that you can use.

Blogging is another way and you can use your blog to brand yourself and communicate with your prospects as it is the only place where they can post their comments. Also, no one will bookmark a sales page but people bookmark blogs so there is a high chance for readers to come back frequently if you have good content on your blog.

Driving traffic to your website is a continuous process. According to Internet gurus, a lack of consistency is why 97% of people fail online. They do their traffic generation methods one time and expect miracles to happen.
In order to make your email marketing business run smoothly and achieve five-figures every month like Internet gurus, you need to do the traffic-generation methods that I shared above week after week, month after month. It's not the methods or secret tips that will make you a success, it is the consistency of your actions that matter.
