and what is also going on with blair and chuck‘s uncle?

There is a lot between them, a lot has been said (and not said) and they have been through a lot together. If they do get back together, it won’t be until Chuck heals. I am very worried about what happened with Blair and Jack (and it kills me there are no spoilers for that area of the story). Obviously, if they slept together (most likely that they did), Chuck will find out. I don’t think he will be happy about it. I just don’t know WHY Blair would sleep with Jack. I can only see her doing it if it was going to help Chuck in some way (Jack wouldn’t help her unless she slept with him?). It is hard to say at this point. I do believe they will END UP together at some point, when I do not know. Do remember the spoilers say something about Blair and Nate at the end of the season (Ew). That is not necessarily romantic though. But Blair loves Chuck too much to completely let him go. I am pretty sure he loves her too. He wouldn’t have come down off the building for her if some part of him didn’t still feel something for her. Though I hope with all my heart and every other part of me that they get back together, it honestly doesn’t look good from what we see for next week. But remember, I think we would all rather they NOT be together, but end up together, than have them together now and totally screw things up between them for good. Because you know if they are together now, the show will eventually break them up for a long time, because thats what shows do and it’s terrible, but true. We know that they are each other’s "one and only", and have to keep faith that their love will prevail. But for now, we must watch the cards fall where they must, and hope for the best. And be patient, for you know they must end up together in the end. They just have to.

in what episode in season 2 of gossip girl do chuck and blair finally stop ‘arguing’ and act like a happy couple? i live in the UK so i’ve only watched the first few episodes of season 2. thanks! =)

there really isn’t an ep like that except when blair is about to tell chuck she loves him then doesn’t because she thought he was playing games. and chuck comes to see her later and tells her they both aren’t readyto say they love each other b/c they won’t be able to play their little cat and mouse game and that it would be way too weird and that they should wait til they are older. that was episode 8 of season 2

One of the oldest methods in the world of selling products or services has been the venerable mailing list. From old time “direct mail” letters to modern email messages, the “LIST” has almost reached mythical proportions in marketing circles.

And with good reason because lists work! But most marketers are not sure exactly how to start and maintain a good email list. Read the 6 tips below to understand how to increase your email list building skills.

(1) Add a Sign Up For on Every Single Webpage of Your Site

most people both old and new marketers forget this simple concept. Put your form in front of your visitors’ faces. Go to www.build-own-list.com most people that come to your website will be “tourists” in one second and then they click away gone forever. Others are genuinely interested in what you to offer but either don’t have the need for it at the current time or don’t have the money. Make it easy for those interested to keep in contact with you. Put a sign-up form “above the fold” on each every page.

(2) Tout the Benefits of Joining Your List

On your subscription or landing page, “prove” to potential subscribers that your newsletter will not be (a) spam (b) a waste of their time. People have lots of info overload in their lives, so they want to read things in their inboxes that are interesting, useful or informative. Offer testimonials, sample messages or an archive of older newsletter issues. Show them “what’s in it for me”.

(3) Offer Special Opt-in Incentives

Okay, this seems like a bribe right? So? People have spam on top of spam, piling into their inboxes everyday and most of them of very tired of it. By creating a really good special report, giving away discount coupons, or great video or pod cast series, you are offering a bit of carrot to a very timid gun-shy rabbit. You drop a little carrot here; a little lettuce there, and soon, they will come of their holes and take a full nibble of what you to offer. So start developing that bunny food.

(4) Use basic SEO Tactics

The most underutilized SEO (Search Engine Optimization) tip, I know about is page title names. Most people either don’t know or don’t bother to rename their webpage titles to reflect the content of the page. Say you write a serious kick-butt article on list building but on your website it’s named “list1.html”, “list2.html”. Give the search engines and potential prospects a chance to find you! You could rename them, “how-list-building-rocks.html” or “increase-profits-with-list-building.html”. Be clear about what’s on the page.

(5) Use Pay-per-Click Ads to Drive Traffic

if you have the budget, you can use something like Google’s Adwords program to push traffic to your email subscription landing page. Go to www.freelist-pro.com you can select the keywords you want to use and then create a campaign around them, using classified like ads to get people to sign up. Make sure you have a great landing page, because every person who “clicks away” without signing up costs you money!

(6) Run a “Membership Drive”

Ask your current readers to help you get more subscribers. Set up “Send to a Friend” options on your website and ask people to send emails to their friends and business associates asking them to sign up. Give away a special report or coupons or some kind of prize to person who has the most “friends” to sign up.

By using these six tips for email list building, should you be well on your way to developing an awesome email list and powerful downline.
