Email marketing is emailing people on an email list to persuade them to go to a certain website or offer of the person sending the emails choosing.
It can be an extremely effective way to make traffic go to a page if you can make the people on that list confident in your recommendations. This is normally done by delivering more than expected and aiding them so that when you want to promote something to them, they are very keen to hear what you have to say.
When you get the chance to make an offer or you have something to say to the people on your list, you merely create one email detailing what you have that they may want and see if they're interested and then send it to everybody on the email list.
It can be very lucrative if you have a list that is eager to hear what you have to say and you want to emit an affiliate offer in order to make some money. You would send out the deal to lots of email addresses and then wait for them to buy the products and you get the commission.
If the reader i thinking that this could be considered spamming, then fear not! This is not the case as you have been allowed with a double opt in, so the person who has given you their email address has said "Yes, please send me the information I've asked for and add me to your list". Plus, when done correctly, you are emailing them lots of information and thoughts that can help them and that they will, with any luck, find helpful anyway.
In order to get your email list, you would build a webpage, so that you can give them information of value in exchange for their email address, like a video or a report about the niche you are intending to send offers to. If you give them good information and help them in their activities, you will gain their trust immediately, and then make them want to give you their email in order to hear more from you in the future. And once you have that trust, you are more likely to get their attention when you send them an affiliate offer.
