12 Profit Increasing Tips For Ezine Publishers
1. Provide your subscribers with special offers, discounts or sales that only they are privy to.
This could include subscriber only bonuses for purchasing your product, a two for one sale, or you could sell your product at a lower price for a limited time to boost your sales.
2. Include a publisher's note or welcome message before you get into your ezine's content.
This will help you to add your personality to your ezine as well as help you to build up your subscriber's trust in you and your business.
Your publisher's note is also a great place to be self promotional by telling your subscribers of any special offers or subscriber only discounts you have running.
3. Use bonuses to get more subscriptions to your publication such as ebooks you've written, ebooks you have the resell rights to, a marketing course, or anything else that your visitors would find to be valuable.
4. Promote your ezine on every page of your site with a subscription box that advertises your ezine.
Ask for your subscriber's first name on your subscription box so that you can personalize your ezine with your subscriber's name.
5. Swap ads with other ezine publishers. This will give you an effective way to increase your circulation by promoting your ezine in publications that target the same audience as your ezine does.
Swap ads for at least three issues in a row and track your ad swaps so that you will be able to tell which ezines and which ads get the best response.
6. Purchase classified ads and sponsor ads in other ezines.
As with your ad swaps track your ads so that you can identify which ezines are best to advertise in and which ads are the most effective in increasing your subscriptions.

This will get your publication noticed by people interested in subscribing to ezines like yours. In addition most announcement lists will allow you to submit your ezine on a weekly or monthly basis which will give you ongoing promotion of your ezine.
