The article offers a lot of great tips for building building email lists. However,  I think many of these folks leave out the one single key element, and that's getting people to actually see your email optin forms AKA traffic.

I bolded the tips that I feel include the traffic element. IMO the others a good, solid tips they are more about optimizing your list and you can do them unless you already have traffic.

I also think they all left out one of the very best ways to build lists...and that to offer affiliate programs that can pay up to 100%. One of the tips in the article is to write a book. How do you get traffic? The advice in the article suggests listing it on Amazon. OK, but another option is to sell if for something like $7 and pay influencers 100% commisions. This creates a list of buyers.
