One way is to give away Free stuff related to your niche. And to make money, fill it with affiliate links.
If users are impressed with your site then they will trust you with their email so I personally think that the quality of the site is the biggest determining factor.
Haha silveraden! Free stuff would be a short quality report, PLR products, a free audio.. anything to gain their trust. Then they will come back.
Here is a post which would help you out How to get more subscribers And right now, am following one of the steps, small contests like this.
I would also try to do some joint ventures. I have just contacted a few people in order to promote my new e-book. I am asking them to give my "members" some great discounts for their products or even giving me their products for free so I can give them to my "members". The reason why someone with a great product will give you their stuff for free or give great discounts, is because you willl be helping them get more members or more sales. This way, both you and your partners will be happy Jens
Free eBooks are a good thing, but it seems the net is flooded with way too many eBooks. I think you need to give something worth a tad more, depending on the product you plan to market to your list that you are building. Then again, if you give someone something that they need/desire for free, then you'll get them to subscribe either way.
Free offers always have worked and always will for list building. It's basic relationship psychology....You must talk before you date and date before you marry.....nuff said. Good luck

Are you thinking of a "thank you" page? I am using Aweber and it's just to type the url you want as the "thank you" url and everything is ready for you in a few minutes. So, you just make a thank you page on your server and link to it at the aweber options. It's really easy. Jens
