Here are some of my favorites: 1. Promote to social news and bookmarking sites each article from the newsletter (the online version). You mentioned junta42.com and SmallBusinessBrief.com, I like them too, but I also think Stumbleupon, dzone.com for the tech interviews from the newsletter, are interesting. It really depends on your niche, before finding which ones are working you need to test and measure. 2. Promote to industry forums, communities, wikis. 3. Have interesting content and try to be creative (everyday try to learn something) 4. Manage correctly your subscribers database: make a segmentation and deliver specific content 5. Offer free tools and whitepapers / e-books to obtain more email addresses. (you could use A/B Testing on one page where you can request an email address for downloading your useful e-book and on the other page without and compare the abandon rates) Thank you Newt for mentioning some of our techniques to increase subscribers list for Avangate Digest Newsletter.
