You can earn a lot of money with email marketing even as a beginner so here are some ways to earn with email marketing.

Selling AD (advertisement) Space:

Step 2: Building your email list

Most people consider building an email list as the hardest part of email marketing but we do not because we believe with the right email practices you will get through this part smoothly, here are some of the ways we convert our audience to potential subscribers:

Offer Incentive:

Offering incentive is a very effective method in email marketing because people won’t give their email until they see an advantage, so if you offer them an incentive they will see a reason to join your list, examples of incentives: E-books, content upgrade e.t.c

Host Giveaways:

Just like offering incentives, hosting giveaways is also very effective because this time you are giving a cash prize and you collect their email at the point of entry or anywhere else, the cash prize don’t have to be too big but remember the bigger the prize the bigger the opt-ins.

Create a quiz.

A user can also participate in a quiz for fun meanwhile you just want their email, utilize this method very well for good results, it is also an effective method.

Here are some useful tips to get you started:

Always create original and relevant content.

Use an attractive topic/headline.

Use bold and engaging CTA button (Call-To-Action button)

Do not use no-reply email addresses

Finally, Email marketing is best for you to get started as a beginner because websites/blogs these days have low success rates with over 1 billion blogs and most of them realistically over 90 per cent of them are not getting traffic, but don’t get me wrong it is also very possible to start a blog and succeed but I advice you use both email marketing and blogging conjointly to yield better results and don’t ignore email marketing as most people do.
