Cool way to build your mailing list - use comments
I just came across this post by Mind Valley Labs. In a nut shell here is the way to go about building your mailing list with your blog comments. When a user comments on your blog customize the results page to prompt them to opt in to your mail list.
Seems like a simple mod and I will work on doing it with my blogs this week. Should be a pretty easy thing to do in word press and I will post the exact how to once I get it figured out. This is one of those "well duh" tip. Something so obvious once you hear it but something at the same time no one talks about or seems to bother to do. Great tip! A simple and over looked form of email list building.

I’ve though about this before. But, with too many email leads capture pages on the internet trying to get consumers to opt-in, I think it can make your readers a little up set, and lower your readers participation. I would like to see the results of testing this list building technique. So, please share your results after applying it.
Thanks for the tip,
