With a free e-book, you’re going to see many benefits to giving it away for free.

First, I let people know I’m giving away a free e-book in all my classifieds and articles. People love to get free stuff, so they come to my site to grab goods. This has created a surge in traffic to my site.

Second, it’s targeted traffic coming to my website because title of my e-book is “Secrets of Hard-Hitting Copywriting”! People that come to my site to get their free book are interested in learning how to write better copy. Then, my site revolves around how they can have better copy for their website.

Third, my sign up rate for my free newsletter has increased because people have more motivation to sign up. They’re getting two things for free with their subscription. Not only a newsletter, but an e-book too.
