What to think about before creating an e-zine.

Decide on what you want your e-zine to be about- For example: If your e-zine is about teens, do you want it for eating disorders, homework help, teen relationship help?

Cost- Will you have a cost to subscribe to your e-zine?

Advertising- Where will you advertise your e-zine to attain subscribers? You e-mail signature? On message boards? E-zine directories?

Mailing list- Who will you sign up with for your mailing list management? Free or paid service?

Ads- Do you accept ads? Paid or free? Swap with other e-zines?

Format- Will your e-zine be in PDF, text or HTML?

Delivery- Will your e-zine be weekly, bi-monthly-monthly or quarterly?

Material- Will your material come from paying contributors or from free article directories?

Contact- Make sure you have a public e-mail address for others to contact.

Links- Will you provide additional places for your readers to check out regarding your content for that e-zine issue?

Creating an e-zine can be fun and profitable, but there are no guarantees. Good luck!
