It helps me to feel more connected with Aweber, and I have learned several good tips from it. I like how the latest blog posts are featured on the Home page, so I can just glance at it to see if there is anything new of interest to me. Well done folks!

I'm practically a brand-new member, and am really, genuinely appreciating the info AND the intention of support behind it. What I'd like more of: Something for the home-based entrepreneurs, mom-preneurs, solo-preneurs (etc.) that don't have the luxury of or desire for a storefront operation. Something for service-based businesses - how to hawk our wares (and services) without selling our souls or asking our clients to. How to go beyond bean counting (open rates, etc.) into cultivating regular, meaningful contact with clients using aweber. Many thanks for your hard work - and congrats on your blog's first birthday!

For example, creating a good subject line, how many times should a link be in an email, links in a regular eZine versus a solo email blast, etc. I would also like to see information about how to keep people subscribed and opening an eZine - should we offer additional free stuff so people keep reading, and don't unsubscribe? Thanks! I would love to see more about how to get good open rates, and good click through rates.

I love the blog section of the site - it's provided me with so many ideas and little snippets of information that I can pick up and run with. You've helped develop the online side of my business in the widest sense - not only in respect of the mailing lists. Keep up your great work All the best from Scotland Well done guys on all your efforts.
