Ask Mr. D - Ezine Circulation
Dear Mr. D,
Recently I started a new weekly ezine, which I publish every Wednesday. I'm using a list management company that automatically handle the subscribe and unsubscribe requests.
Here's my question: Initially my circulation was growing nicely, but all of a sudden it has started to shrink. What's going on? How can I turn this thing around.
Sincerely,
Shrinking list

Dear Shrinking List,
You will lose some subscribers through normal attrition. Some will just lose interest in the subject material of your publication. Some will change email address, but forget to notify you, etc. There's not much you can do about these types of lost subscribers. You just have to market your ezine enough to make up for these dropouts.
But, there are

several other reasons why a subscriber chooses to unsubscribe from an ezine that you can prevent by taking a good objective look at your publication. Check out these subscriber killers.
1. More ads than content.
2. Boring content.
3. Poorly written content.
4. Content not targeted to your subscriber base.
5. Poorly formatted - visually hard to read.
You need to check your ezine for these subscriber turnoffs and correct any that apply. Above all keep marketing your publication. That should turn your situation around.
Best wishes,
Mr. D
