What is an Online Newsletter and How Can it Drive Traffic to My Web site?

By: Keith R Lunt

First, what is an online newsletter?
Well, it is only a way of you communicating with previous and current visitors, whilst maybe making them an offer. A newsletter might give details of latest ideas and posts, or a summary of new additions on your web site and links to go to in order to read them fully. You may want to use a newsletter, or ezine, as a way of communicating special offers to customers in the hope that they will come back to your site and buy from you.

Regularly you would send the online newsletter via email direct to the reader's email address. So, if they are interested in whatever you are offering, they will give you there email address and perhaps several other details. As for instance, they might tell you exactly which types of offers they are interested in.

So an online newsletter is simply a way of sending a newsletter to signed up visitors direct to their email box.

How does an online newsletter generate visitors?
An online newsletter is aimed at people who have already visited your web site and want to find out more. It is not aimed at new traffic, unless you fall to the level of spam lists with their pathetic success rates. Do not get involved with spam!

Instead you are sending previous visitors offers and latest updates. You are hoping to tempt them back in excess of to your website, maybe to read a latest interesting post or to have a look at latest stock and your great new offers.

It might, at first, seem that because the newsletter is targeted at previous traffic that there is a limited audience and that a small target audience will give limited results. But the fact is that these people have already visited your web site, they are interested in it and what you provide and have had the confidence in your web site to give you their email addresses.

This all mounts up to one vital factor - they are highly budding to respond to your newsletter now and in the future.

So it does not drive new visitors to your site, but encourages qualified previous visitors to make the return trip, perhaps even then remembering to come back again in the future.

And there's more?
What happens when the offer that you put in the newsletter is too good to miss? What happens when the latest post that you are talking around is a must read piece of information? Well the recipients are your fans, and this means that if the online newsletter contains something valuable, they might even pass it onto their friends. So driving brand new visitors is possible through an online newsletter, only not the main visitors generation method.

In conclusion
An online newsletter is actually very straightforward to set up, with various sites offering such services totally for free. Make good offers to encourage your visitors to sign up for the newsletter and make further offers in the newsletters to make sure that that they stay subscribed and are tempted into visiting your web site.
