Are you building your list?

If you are then great!

If not, are you participating in giveaway events?

You should be!  The secrets out, it’s a great list building strategy.

I get a steady trickle of subscribers to my list via my free list building ebook on this blog (if that includes you, thankyou for joining, I have some good things planned for the future).

But now my list is growing at a steady pace, all thanks to giveaway events. And it’s really easy to get involved.

What You Need

1. Something to give away, if you don’t have your own gift you can use some PLR that you have giveaway rights to;
2. An auto responder service;
3. A domain name;
4. A hosting account;
5. A simple squeeze page;
6. A simple thank you page;
7. The knowledge to link them all together.

And that’s really all you need, except of course some giveaway events to participate in.

How To Set It Up

To begin, you will select a suitable gift, and then you will set up an auto-responder list-name and Web-form. I use a new list-name for each gift product so that I know what my subscribers are interested in.

Include the re-direct URL on the confirmed opt-in set up to send your subscribers to your thank you page.

Create your web form and enter the appropriate code into your squeeze page. Set up your thankyou page with the gift name and download link. You don’t need to do anything elaborate for your pages, they only need to be very basic and simple.

Once you have all of that you just need to assemble a folder containing all of the files for your giveaway offering including an image, squeeze and thank-you pages, .pdf file etc. for your gift.

You then FTP the folder and files up to your hosting account into the public html folder.

Test It

Check that your gift and pages are set up correctly by entering your URL’s into your browser to see that they open as they should. If so, then you are all set to enter your gift into a giveaway event.

You will need to sign up as a contributor to the giveaway and enter your gift details. This will include the relevant URL’s, an image of your gift, the title and a short description. You then submit your gift for approval.

Once completed, you can use the same gift over and over on multiple giveaway events. This makes it really easy to do giveaways as you will probably only need to change a few words for each new event.

Some Good Events

These are some events that are just setting up that you could contribute to:

Friday The 13th Giveaway

The Big Fat Giveaway

The 100% Giveaway

It is free to join but you have the option to upgrade to a paid contributor. This has the added benefit that you get extra points that are required to rank and move your gift closer to the top of the list making it more likely to be selected.

You can also contribute additional gifts instead of just one and you can earn commission when people that you refer sign up and spend money to upgrade or buy any of the offers.

I hope that this has been helpful and you now can go on to participate in a giveaway event. And if you do, I am sure you will be pleased with the results.

If you need any further help, or you just want to ask a question or leave a comment, please do so and I will do my best to get your questions answered. I wish you luck with it. Happy list building!
