Become a Viral Marketing Partner for the Bizwave competition

If only a small percentage of the people visiting your website are currently subscribing to your newsletter then this FREE tool is for you.

Getting visitors on your website to subscribe your newsletter is very valuable, because:

  • Then you can drive traffic to your own website at zero or very little cost.
  • If you are paying search engines and other websites to forward traffic to you, then it is very important that you get a large percentage of those people to subscribe so that you don't lose your advertising investment.
  • Your visitors might not be ready to buy immediately - they might not have the money available or a need for your products at that moment in time. By getting them to subscribe to your newsletter, you can remind them again and again about your website until they are ready to buy.
  • It is easier to get someone to say yes to receive a free newsletter than it is to get them to buy something. Thus, don't push too hard to get them to buy, instead just give them a little push and an incentive to subscribe to your newsletter, else you might lose them completely.

Note: If you don't already have a lot of traffic on your website or if you want to get a really huge number of new subscribers then let us do a viral campaign for you. You could get huge numbers of new opt-in subscribers.

If you don't have a busy website yet and are looking for a solution to get more subscribers on a smaller budget, then our Rent Opt-In Email Subscribers service will be best for you.


The trick to getting more visitors to subscribe to your newsletter is routing them to a place where they very much want to go further, but may only proceed by indicating whether or not they want to receive your newsletter. We have created such a place and you can benefit from using it...

The place that we have created is very good at converting visitors into subscribers. Based on actual results that we have measured you should get 2.6 subscribers for every 1 person who clicks through to this place if 90% of the people select your newsletter.

(95% of the people select our own newsletter, so you should be able to get 90% unless your newsletter is just of interest to a very small section of the population. The reason why the percentage is so high is that the checkbox is checked by default and most people just leave it as it is. Even if a lower percentage of people choose your newsletter, you'll still get more subscribers than would have subscribed through your own website due to the viral nature of this place that we created.)

Yes, you read correctly and it is not a mistake: For every 1 person who clicks through to this place, you'll get 2.6 subscribers back. You will be getting more people back than you sent to us!

And, you will be getting opt-in subscribers back while you are just sending us clicks. An opt-in subscriber is much more valuable than a click because a subscriber might click once a month for the rest of their life from your newsletter to your website. If every subscriber clicks 10 times in his life, then you will be getting 26 clicks back for every 1 click that you sent us! Have you ever heard of a more powerful way to increase the traffic to your website?

But, you might ask, how can you get more people back than you sent us? Who will these additional people be? They will be the friends and collegues of your existing website visitors. Thus, they are likely to have the same demographic profile and interests as your current website visitors. Thus, you'll be getting more of the same types of people who are already interested in your website!

What is this special place that is so good at converting visitors into opt-in subscribers? It is a viral competition...

We host viral competitions for clients to help them build up opt-in email mailing lists. Through these competitions participants are given an incentive to invite their friends to participate too. In this way each initial participant with which the competition is kick-started grows to many participants. Our clients pay for the hosting of their competitions and they also have to pay for the prize that they offer, but you can benefit from their competitions free of charge in exchange for bringing more initial participants to the competitions.

The clever bit is that each person who comes from your website to the competition page will be asked if they want to subscribe to your newsletter before they click to enter the competition. The checkbox next to the description of your newsletter will be checked by default and most people just leave it checked.

250 x 250 pixel advertisement Click below or on any of the example ads on the right to see what the competition page looks like for people who come from our viral marketing partner Freebees:

==>  Experience this viral competition for yourself

Notice the "partner=138" in the hyperlink which tells us that the visitor has come from Freebees. Also notice the description of the Freebees newsletter next to the checkbox on the competition page. You will have your own unique partner ID and can enter your own description for your newsletter.

How does it work?

  • 120 x 600 pixel advertisement We'll give you a special hyperlink that you can put on your website. You could also include it in your newsletter. If you would like a graphical advertisement, let us know which size in pixels it must be and we'll send you one.
  • Some people will click and visit the competition page.
  • Each person who wants to enter the competition will be asked if they want to subscribe to your newsletter by means of a checkbox with a description that you provide. By default the checkbox will be in the checked state, indicating "yes". Thus, it is fully opt-in: these people are not just asking for some generic information - they are asking to receive your newsletter specifically. You will get the data of all those subscribers and will have their full permission to send them your mailings.
  • In order to qualify for the prize each participant must enter the email addresses of a specified number of their friends. These are people with very much the same demographic profile as your current customers, but they are probably not yet in your database, so it will be very valuable for you to get those friends to subscribe to your newsletter.
  • Some of these friends who receive messages through the competition will click and participate. They will also be asked if they want to subscribe to your newsletter.
  • Each of these people in turn will invite more of their friends and they will also be given the option to subscribe to your newsletter, etc, etc, for many levels until the end of the competition. You'll get all those subscribers who asked to receive your newsletter.
  • You will be able to log in to our website and download the data of people who subscribed to your newsletter. Or, you can use our bulk email facilities for sending your newsletter (or ad-hoc mailings) to your new subscribers automatically immediately after they have subscribed (by buying credits for sending to Owned Subscribers).
  • The data you'll receive from us will contain the following details on each subscriber:
    • First Name
    • Last Name
    • Email Address
    • The date and time when the subscriber agreed to receive your newsletter/mailing.
    • The IP address that the subscriber used at the time when he/she agreed to receive your mailing.

Why are we offering this opportunity?

To make this competition expand even faster so that we can reach as many people on the planet as possible before the competition closes.

What is the cost?

FREE!

Why is it free?

It is FREE because it is a win-win business partnership.

Instead of paying you for advertising space on your website, we are giving you something much more valuable - huge numbers of opt-in subscribers for your newsletter. The more people you send to our competition, the more subscribers you will get.

  • We win by getting people from your website to participate in the competition who might not otherwise have participated.
  • You win by receiving many new opt-in subscribers that you can add to your mailing list. With these new subscribers you can generate additional traffic to your website and thereby earn much more in sales and advertising revenue than if you just sold us the ad space.
