Ezine Publishing As A Business

Written by Elena Fawkner


Continued from page 1

Before you publish your first issue, write a few articles about your chosen subject and submit them, together with a resource box that includes a way for people to subscribe to your new ezine. This is just to drum up interest so that you actually have a few subscribers to send your first issue to.

What do I mean by "submitting" your articles? There are many ezine publishers and webmasters looking for fresh, quality content for their ezines and web sites that they don't want to have to create for themselves.

In response to this demand, a number of services and web sites have sprung up to collect content contributions from people like you and make it available to people like them.

Here's a list of article submission points to get you started:

=> Announcement Lists

Yahoo Groups (submit fromrepparttar Yahoo Groups website at http://groups.yahoo.com/ - you'll need to subscribe to these groups first):
