Email marketing for bloggers.
Have you ever signed up for a newsletter from a blog?
I have, and sometimes the letter is just a summary of their latest posts, but most often, it's news about what's going on at their blog like contests, favorite posts of the last week, and articles of interest.
One of the most used ways I've seen to send this newsletter is from icontact, and now they have a new community all about tips and tricks for email marketing.
I happen to think that more bloggers should offer a newsletter.
Feed reading is great, but sometimes there are so many posts, I'm sure I over look some really great posts.
A newsletter that highlights those posts, sent out once a week, would help attract more views to those great articles.
The bloggers would get double the page views, and possibly Stumbled or Dugg, which would drive even more traffic to those posts of interest.
I've been checking out the community forums, it seems to have just been started not long ago, and it has some great posts of interest.
I've often thought about a newsletter for my own blog, but I honestly don't have the kind of content to warrant one.
I'm a personal mommy blogger, but I do sign up for newsletters from other bloggers that have great articles about blogging.
I have subscriptions to some of the pro-bloggers, mom bloggers, and even a few arts and crafts bloggers.
I enjoy all the different aspects of each type of blog, and the newsletters help me read the more valuable posts on each.
Do you have one? Do you subscribe to any?

I don't have content that would warrant a newsletter, either. I won't even invest in my own domain name!
I don't subscribe to them, either.
