List building, actually quality list building does not have to be a difficult task if you know where to go on how to approach it. Some methods take longer than others but the money strategies are typically the fastest ways to start building a highly targeted list. Running a Google AdWords campaign is probably THE fastest way to build a top-quality list because Google is used by millions and millions of people.

Another fast way to build a top-quality list is doing solo ads or solo advertising. Basically, what that means is that you go out and you pay somebody that has a list, a newsletter, or a group of people that are in your target market or in your niche to send an email out for you. There are some places out there that specifically base their business model around this concept. You pay them money and they mail.

For example, one place that I personally use if I want to go after authors, speakers, coaches, and consultants is Speaker New News. If I’m looking for people in the health industry, the health niche, the personal development, self help, I use SelfGrowth.com. If I’m looking for people that have a lot of money that are interested in investments and things like that, then I go to NewsMax.com. If I’m looking for some people that are into business opportunities or internet marketing, a great place I go to is Ezines-R-Us . I’ve gotten a lot of subscribers from each one of these and would have to say that it was money well spent.

So , you’ve got solo ads, you have Google AdWords and another great way to build a list which is also one of the fastest ways is finding joint ventures. Finding people that have newsletters or a list that’s in the same market as yours and basically having them mail out for you to make things happen. Basically, you don’t pay them like a solo ad, instead you work out some kind of a deal with them – perhaps a portion of the profits, for them to mail it out for you.

In my opinion, those are the three great ways and quick ways to build a top-quality list.

So there’s this thing called Dynamic Keyword Insertion….ever hear about it? No, I thought not. The truth is most people have not heard of it and have no idea what it is. However, this is something that is actually really good and will save you a lot of time with your ad campaigns.

Basically, it is an advanced strategy of pay per click where you use this special code to sub in and out different keywords, depending on the term being searched. This is why it is called “dynamic” because the keyword in your ad constantly changes to match the related search term.

I’m sure you are somewhat confused at this point, so let me try to shed more light. Say, for instance you were creating a campaign to advertise clothing and you had a whole bunch of keywords that you wanted in your ads, such as: jeans, pants, t-shirts, sweaters, swimsuits, jackets, etc. Rather than creating individual ads to encompass all your keywords, which would take forever, you simply ad the following code.

{Keyword: Clothing Warehouse}

Discount {Keyword: Clothing}

Free Shipping

Clothingwarehouse.com/{Keyword: Clothing}

As soon as you activate your campaign, the keyword in your ad will change to reflect what was searched for. So, if we took the words listed above and pretended these were the search terms, our ads would look something like this:

Jeans T-Shirts

Discount T-shirts Discount Jeans

Free Shipping Free Shipping

Clothingwarehouse.com/t-shirts Clothingwarehouse.com/jeans

If the search term included more than one keyword, your ad would automatically revert to the default:

Clothing Warehouse

Discount Clothing

Free Shipping

Clothingwarehouse.com/Clothing

A few things you have to be careful about is that your ads stay relevant, they make sense and your keyword headlines are no more than 25 characters in length. Don’t add a lot of keywords that have no relation to what you are selling. If you do, your ads may be incoherent and your click-throughs will go down causing your ads to no longer be targeted.

Social networking is the way of the future. There are so many sites available like MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Squidoo… there are a ton of them. But, it’s important to understand the social networking groups as well as your reasoning for joining them are. I can tell you about my experience…

I am in multiple different social networking groups and Amazon, who has their own social networking site, is one of them. I have a blog on Amazon. You can find friends on Amazon networking. If you haven’t noticed or joined this social networking group I highly recommend it. The reason I say this is because anybody can have an Amazon account, offer information, critiques and suggestions and could be more likely to sell or offer those individuals different things from which to generate revenue, such as your own books or products.

Another place I use is MySpace.com. MySpace isn’t one of my favourite ones out there. However, I still use them because the purpose of my MySpace account is to collect friends. Why? Because the more friends you have, the more you can promote yourself.

I also use FaceBook.com. FaceBook is probably the one that I use the most out of all the social networking sites out there. The interesting thing about FaceBook is that there are a lot of people that are using it on a regular basis and I find there are a lot more people that are in my target market and in my niche, that I’m focusing on. Though I do personally use FaceBook, I tend to kind of glance through FaceBook pretty much once a day and I do it whenever I’m bored or have nothing else to do. Notice that I did say “when I’m bored or have nothing else to do” or when I just need something to distract me away from the rest of the world, I’ll play in the FaceBook world. Basically, it’s a great networking site that I highly recommend you try especially if you’re trying to build your business.

Digg.com is another great choice! Digg allows you to have friends and followers and things like that. It’s great because it allows you to make announcements or post things that are newsworthy. This builds your credibility.

The last one I use is a place called Twitter. Twitter is a great social networking place and I like it probably the most of every single one. The reason I like it the best is because I only have to write a few words. You don’t have to write much, and you get to follow people’s lives on there. What happens is a lot of people are updating you on their lives. If you visit the site you’ll understand what I mean. But this is the way that I personally use. You can see what people are doing – sometimes an hourly basis or on a daily basis. It’s a good way to contact and keep up with people.

So, to summarize if you’re not using social networking to build your network, I suggest you start right away. It’s amazing how many contacts you can meet and this can help grow your business exponentially. The top ones I highly recommend are Digg, FaceBook, MySpace, Amazon, and Twitter.
