Future-proof your marketing with
online newsfeeds
By Kim Franck
«¤»„«¤»§«¤»„«¤»§«¤»„«¤»§«¤»
64% of business
e-mail is never opened. And there's no way to know how many
copies of your e-zine gather dust in busy mailboxes or how many are
destroyed by spam filters before they get that chance.
Marketing messages never reaching their audience should worry any
marketer,
but life is more worrying if the audience is also getting harder to
grow.
Today, everyone is uneasy about privacy loss, spyware, spam, identity
theft,
and unnamed menaces that might have been invented but we just haven't
heard
about yet. That can only make people even more reluctant to disclose
their
name and e-mail address to get your e-zine than they might have been
in the
past.
Taken together, those trends make marketing by e-zine alone more
difficult
and less effective.
What can you do about it?
If you look at your e-zine as a product, you can think about
diversifying
your product range in response to a changing market. Keep publishing
your
e-zine as standard, but publish a parallel version of it as an online
newsfeed.
It doesn't take a great leap of technology, or of know-how, to get a
newsfeed off the ground; you can do the job quickly and relatively
easily.
But, like their offline friends, online businesses can be slow to
grasp new
opportunities, and for some, it might require a small leap of faith.
Those who have embraced newsfeeds already have an advantage over those
who
have not because newsfeeds overcome the inherent risks of 'e-zine
only'
marketing. Because newsfeeds don't involve e-mail at all, they can't
get
stuck in spam filters, and they can't get lost in mailboxes.
They simply make your news available in a form anyone around the world
can
subscribe to - without telling you about it and without giving you
their
address. That deprives you of a mailing list opportunity that an e-zine
subscription would have provided, but that's the point - your e-zine
subscriptions are dropping off anyway!
New subscribers get to keep their privacy, and you get them to read
your
news, whenever you want, for zero cost. Your newsfeed keeps them
interested
in your website, because your news items link to it, and it also
provides a
richer reading experience than your e-zine currently does. Everyone
wins.
Subscribers read newsfeeds using a type of web browser--called a
newsreader--which frees you to publish material you would otherwise
have to
send as e-mail attachments and so make your e-zine more susceptible to
filtering by anti-virus systems.
There is nothing an e-zine can do that a newsfeed can't do better. And
there
are some things a newsfeed can do that an e-zine can't do at all. You
can
include pictures, video, and audio in newsfeeds, making your news as
sharp
and attractive as your website.
They're a great way to showcase products and special offers, and there
are
no mailing lists to worry about.
Subscriber expectations of an e-zine mean you have to wait until you
have
enough news to make a reasonably sized edition. Not so with a newsfeed;
you
can publish news when you have it. Any amount of news, however small,
will
be automatically collected for subscribers by their newsreader
software
without you having to mail out anything to anyone. Think of it as
'always
on' publishing.
So how do you get people to subscribe?
At the very least, you can promote your newsfeed in your e-zine and on
your
website. But there are more than a hundred search engines and
directories
specializing in newsfeeds, most of which are free to use. By telling
them
your newsfeed exists, you automatically give it momentum and expose
your
website to potentially wider audiences.
Newsfeeds help to insure against subscriber drop-off by giving people
a more
convenient way of getting your news, and they give you a chance to
reach
wider, or less crowded, markets.
Why get into newsfeeds? You should because you can, because your
competition probably has, and because the future is no longer the
future.

setting up your own newsfeed, and going live with it today.

HOT BIZ*TIP
_____________________
Squeeze Pages
Squeeze Pages are cleverly designed data collection tools on the
web, designed to gather targeted information. They usually
offer something free which is valuable, and in order to get it,
you have to supply a great deal of information about yourself,
earnings, level of education attained, buying habits, etc., and
give them permission to contact you. If you complete the forms,
you will find that your email as well as your snail mail will
increase dramatically.
Now, if you do fill out a form for something free, don't hold
your breathe until you get it. Many of these offers have a
caveat relieving them of responsibility for the delivery of the
merchandise. You most likely will see something like this in the
fine print: "This is an independent rewards program and is not
affiliated with the listed merchants. The listed merchants in
no way endorse or sponsor this activity. These merchants are not
liable for any alleged or actual claims related to this offer'."
Others, after they have collected all the data will have a final
page asking you to enter a user name and password so you can
come back to the web site to check the status of your gift. A
common ploy used here is to have the page fail, and an error
page is then displayed warning that if this information is not
entered, you will not receive the free offer. No matter how hard
you try, the page will always fail and after a few failed
attempts you simply give up, or they might state that the page
has "timed out" for security reasons.
In the terms and conditions, you will also see something like
this: "All gifts and offers are based on a first-come,
first-served basis, and we reserve the right to cancel any offer
at any time for any reason." In other words, in all probability
you will not get anything for the information you give them,
other than a lot of unwanted email clogging your mail box.
Is it legal for them to send you email based on the information
you gave them? Yes - in the fine print you specifically give
them permission to contact you and this does pass the test of
the "Can-Spam Act." So how do these companies making
these
offers make money from this enterprise? Simple - they either
sell the lists as "opt in" lists to others, or they charge
other
advertisers to send offers to their list of contacts.
My advice on this one folks, is if you get an offer for a free
something, "click on by".
