Posting messages to e-mail discussion lists is a

great way to get free advertising. An e-mail

discussion list is a group of people connected

together via e-mail that can communicate with

one another. When you post a message to a list

include your signature file at the end. Your sig

file should be no more than 5 to 6 lines. Include

an attention getting sentence why they should

visit your web site or e-mail your auto responder.

Try to select list's that are archived because your

signature file will be viewed for years to come.

E-mail discussion lists are highly targeted. There

are thousands of discussion lists with thousands

of different subjects. You can usually subscribe

to these lists by sending an e-mail or by filling out

a web form. You want to subscribe to one that

would be related to your target audience. If you

are selling books about marketing, you would

want to post to lists were business people and

marketers would congregate.

Before posting to any e-mail discussion list, read

the FAQ or rules first. They will tell you what

kinds of posts are allowed. Read the messages

for a few days before posting your message to

see what type of messages are being posted. If

the list is archived you could read the older

messages. If you want to make sure, you could

e-mail the list moderator. Never post messages

that are unrelated to the list's subject.

There are many different types of messages you

could post to the e-mail discussion list. You

could post an informative comment or article that

would interest the other list members. Post a

question on the discussion list that you would like

answered. You could answer another person's

question on the list. When you post and answer

questions you will become know as an expert

and meet other experts on the list.

Before you promote any online business educate yourself first by reading the ebook "Success in 10 Steps" by Michael Dlouhy.
