Yes, newsletters can be effective, and yes, email marketing is valuable. But for most businesses, where products are sold and shipped, this kind of system does not work. Buyers of that kind of product simply will not leave their email or signup for anything when arriving at a site. They want to shop, compare prices, and leave - if they do that much. So the kind of marketing that works, depends largely on the target market. I look forward to hearing your results. Laura This method does not work for most businesses.

I agreed with you. And I have one comment: About the lack of residual effect after you turn off GA. It is true, but you can organize a funnel, asking to visitors their email . Then you can send emails building a relationshiph, and later you can sell to them. Some visitors become to customers, after some period of time. The last week I run a campaign in GA, from monday - friday. 235 clicks, 50 USD, 106 suscribers to a serie of Jommla's videos. Now I am sending to suscribers the second video about choose a hosting, register a domain,install Joomla, buy a Template, personalize the template, install adittional modules, how do bakcups, etc. And in each step I recommend them a company: namecheap.com for domains, me (I sell hosting and domains) or hostgator for hosting, Rockettheme for templates, etc. Then I am affiliate in each company. Then if the visitors becomes -> suscribers becomes -> buyers then I can profit. Maybe in 3-4 weeks I will see the results. I will share the results with you and your readers. I expect that 1 of my suscribers may buy from Hostgator, and them I will even. See you soon. Hi Laura.
