1.Pop-ups increase sign-ups
Pop-up windows have a bad reputation in
industry for annoying visitors. However, if you use it in a non-intrusive way, it can triple your subscription rate. I used to run ads for my ezine without pop-ups and could only get less than 10% of my visitors to opt in. After implementing a pop-up box, my conversion rate increased by more than 20%.
You can pick up a java script that runs a pop-up from

2.Give a free bonus to your subscribers
Freebies never go out of fashion. Add a few free bonuses to your offer and they increase
perceived value of your product in
eyes of prospects. Similarly, give away some free goodies for subscribing to your ezine and you will notice a healthy increase in subscription rate. When giving out freebies, make sure they tie in with
focus of your site and that they give value to your subscribers. An outdated ebook given as a free gift cheapens your ezine and it is worse than not having a free bonus.
3.Submit your ezine to every directory available
Regularly find places to list your ezine. Although you won’t get thousands of subscribers from these directories, there will be a small steady stream of leads to your site. Do a search on Google and you will be able to locate dozens of ezine directories.
