Aweber Email Marketing Get Started Guide

written by John Chow on June 2, 2011

My friends over at Aweber have created a cool get started guide to email marketing. The 19 page guide walks you through the entire process of setting up a list and auto responder sales funnel using Aweber. If you’re new to Aweber, this is a great way to learn the system.

Best off all, the guide is 100% free. You don’t even need to opt in to any email list to get it. Here is the direct download link.

Try Aweber for Only $1.00

If your blog doesn’t have an email list, you are leaving a ton of money on the table. My mailing list is the number one reason why my blog makes income that it does. Aweber is the best email service I have ever used. Their feature set is beyond anything else in the industry.

Aweber offers a $1 trial account for all new customers. The account is just like a normal Aweber account and includes unlimited email campaigns, newsletter, broadcasts and follow ups. It’s a great way to test drive Aweber to see what it can do for your blog. Your satisfaction is guaranteed. If you find that email marketing is not for you, contact Aweber within 30 days and they’ll give you the $1 back.

Great timing considering I’m already going to start my first email marketing campaigns.

Thanks for the guide John, it’ll definitely save me some precious time!

Kevin Kimes June 2, 2011 at 4:23 pm

I’m preparing to fully implement an email list with my blog currently as well, so this is indeed great timing.

PPC Ian June 2, 2011 at 8:30 pm: You can’t start early enough. The sooner you collect email addresses, the more you will have! It’s just a game of time.

Flyer Templates June 3, 2011 at 3:45 am

Good luck Sergio and wish you all the best…

Carl Coddington June 2, 2011 at 2:42 pm

I refuse to use Aweber any more. There are too many free services that work too well.

Kevin Kimes June 2, 2011 at 4:31 pm

Like what? Free for what list size?

PPC Ian June 2, 2011 at 8:29 pm

I’d be curious too! I have found AWeber cost effective for what they provide.

Louie Sison June 2, 2011 at 9:12 pm: Let us know those as well, @carl

ZK @ Web Marketing Tips June 2, 2011 at 8:54 pm

Kindly mention name of those services.

he is maybe talking about mailchimp?

Kutun June 2, 2011 at 3:07 pm

difficul of marketing online is email list

fazal mayar June 2, 2011 at 9:20 pm: no i dont think so kutun, the difficult of any marketing online or business online is traffic but building a very big email list is no easy task i agree

Gary June 2, 2011 at 3:50 pm

I tried the free month for a $1 and then cancelled after the free month.
It’s an extremely ‘controlled’ mailer system and as mentioned above, there are so many free options now available with not so many restrictions and rules.

John Chow June 2, 2011 at 5:18 pm

The control system is what allows Aweber to have the highest deliverability rate in the industry. I have seen as much as 25% of my emails blocked when using free options. Sometimes, free can be extremely expensive.

ZK @ Web Marketing Tips June 2, 2011 at 9:01 pm: yes quite agree with you, you should never take any chance with your business.
Louie Sison June 2, 2011 at 9:11 pm: “Sometimes, free can be extremely expensive.” – Wow, these are deep words

Nishant Soni June 2, 2011 at 5:10 pm

Thanks for the heads up Jhon.
I actually didn’t have clear information about aweber as I’ve never used it before.

Yes, Aweber is the absolute best. If you’re going to spend money on anything, make sure to get a good autoresponder like Aweber!

PPC Ian June 2, 2011 at 8:27 pm

Thanks appreciate the advice, Aweber is awesome.

Brooklyn Dentist June 2, 2011 at 11:21 pm

Aweber is the best. Those who haven’t use it yet must do so now.

Richard June 3, 2011 at 1:59 am

I agree 100 percent in Aweber. Without that email list, there are no possibilities in earning an income. I use this service and quite happy to pay chicken feed to make it happen.

Thanks Aweber..

Richard

Yeah this is useful,
Email marketing is a form of direct marketing which uses electronic mail as a means of communicating commercial or fund-raising messages to an audience.

Thanks John for guidance and aweber is one of the most versatile email marketing providers available to bloggers.

Andrew June 4, 2011 at 4:10 am

Thanks for the link, this guide is really a helpful thing.

PPC Ian June 5, 2011 at 4:54 pm: I agree. I’m already getting use out of it. AWeber keeps upgrading their platform more and more. I’m blown away every time I log in to my account!

Mike June 5, 2011 at 6:20 am

Thanks John! Perfect timing. I will be sure to sign up via your link!! My challenge comes with capturing the emails opt-in. I want to make it very easy for my audience to opt-in. My other challenge comes with preparing a autoresponder series and deciding exactly how often to send the emails. Finally and most important is how to monitize this list? My niche is sports betting, how would you monitize this? Would you include some Amazon and Clickbank links in every other email? Any Suggestions?

Shell June 5, 2011 at 2:10 pm

Hiya,
Fab site! However I just tried to download the 19 Page Aweber guide and it wouldn’t load, I’m using Firefox on a new computer? No message or anything, just a blank page, maybe the link has changed? If you could have a look that would be great, thanks!

Kent June 5, 2011 at 8:23 pm

I heard that if you don’t upgrade to the premium package with Aweber, your email list is restricted to only a few hundred. So anyone who’s cheap and only plans to pay $1 and nothing else has another thing coming. Hah.

I havent signed up for it yet, but I will next month. I’ve searched around, its the most recommended. Plus if you start a list with another company and try to transfer it to Aweber, its not going to happen. You’ll have to start from scratch. So whoever you start with..you have to stay with.

Kavya Hari June 7, 2011 at 3:53 am

Thank you so much John for given great post about e-mail marketing data on here And, it has an unlimited email campaigns with the satisfaction guarantee and so on.

At the began of my blogging career i choose Email Marketing to increase my blog traffic and that was a nice approach. I think still it is a good tool for internet marketer.

Whitney June 21, 2011 at 10:29 pm

I am in the beginning phases of email marketing on my blog. I currently use ListWire since it’s free, but as time goes on I would like to switch to Aweber. I think email marketing is super important though……as they say the money is in the list!
