Woo! 100 Subscriber landmark!

    I finally topped 100 subscribers to my newsletter. These emails are verified so I know that each person is truly enjoying the material! I found a bug within my website and it was preventing users from registering- I fixed it and now I'm seeing around 5 signups a day :).

    How many subscribers do I need to start selling ads in newsletters and actually make some money? :p

    I want to know whether there are people whose blog is not under a particular niche, but still has a lot of subscribers

    Well done, any targeted list is a good thing.
    "they" reckon that each list member is woth $1 a month, if you send out offers and they are buyers.
    I have just watched a rather good video by a guy called Frank Kern, I believe his niche list is 600,000
    Good info, although as always they are selling stuff. Nowt wrong with that as that is why we are all here.

    It took about a month or two, but as I said, I had a huge setback because my signup link was broken for probably a few weeks, and I just noticed a few days ago :).

    Traffic is largely from wikipedia and stumbleupon. Seeing more and more from google though :D

    Congrats bud. I'm stuck at 99 for the past three days ( :( ) but when I do I'll celebrate (I presume you're talking about RSS subscribers).

    I did 110 subscribers to my newsletter in three days (the last three actually) - stuff is so much easier when you're giving away something free :p

    Nope! I'm talking about opt-in email subscribers. I just started an RSS feed a week or so ago, and it has around 15 subscribers I think. But I really push the newsletter, and don't advertise the feed much. I think newsletter subscribers are worth more ;)
