Use Members Only Area to Gain Subscribers

If you are just like me, or everyone else with a blog, you want to get as many subscribers as you can.  Some bloggers even think that the number of subscribers is the “new pagerank”.  Others think that it can gauge the value of your blog. 

With that said, I wanted to point out a way that I use on my other blogs to gain some subscribers.  Create a Members Only area and offer the passwords to that area to your email subscribers only.

Now, the downside to this is that you have to come up with a report or some kind of content that people will be willing to go the extra mile to subscribe.

How do you do this?  Well, the way that I did this was to simply create a page called “Members Area“.  One this page you can put links to password protected posts and pages.  On my other blog, I wrote a quick report on how I made $400 with ONE post.  I put that link on my Members Area page and when you click it, you have to enter the password before you can see the content.

With that all setup I put a post up on my blog regarding ways you can get the password to the information.  I decided to place the password in my feed using a plugin called feed footer.  This plugin allows you to have additional information at the end of each post in your feed.
