Do all safelists suck?
I’m sure that title caught your attention.
Most marketers believe that either all safelists suck or that they
are a good way to get traffic and a valuable tool in their marketing
efforts.
Well, you might think they suck too… and I am here to let you know
that MOST do but there is an exception to the rule.
You see, I got started in marketing on the safelists and they are
actually the main tool I used in the beginning.
I can attribute my success to consistent daily ad postings on these
safelists.
The ones that brought me good results and still do today are
credit-based safelists.
Did you know that Mike Filsaime started on safelists years ago? He
sure did..he built a list of over 7,000 subscribers using nothing
but safelists…
If you’re unfamiliar with safelists let me give you a quick run down…
1. What is a safelist?
A safelist is a mailing list where all members can mail to each
other. These emails cannot be considered as spam because every
member has opted in and confirmed their email address. A safelist
can be used to advertise websites, business opportunities, build your
list and so forth.
2. Do safelists really work?
Yes, they do as long as you are a member to more than a few and post
regularly.
3. How does the credit based mailer work?
With the credit based mailer you can email your ads to the entire
safelist a certain amount of times a day (depending on your
membership level) as long as you have credits left.
Credit mailings include credit links that members click on to earn
credits – this gives you guaranteed traffic. This is a really good
feature because it allows you to save your credits and use them
whenever you want to.
Now that you have an idea on how safelists work, I want to recommend
to you the sites that I like best for great results.
I have put together a page with banners linked to the top safelists
in my book. Visit the link and signup for any of the sites you are
not a member of yet.
They are in no particular order, however, just so you know, the top
2 are mine! 
They are both less than a year old but both have
very responsive members.

Once you signup to them all, decide on which ones you would like to
upgrade to. Being a paid member on these sites can give you way
more mailings where you can really leverage your efforts.
If you are active on these sites daily you will steadily be bringing
in signups on a daily basis.
To this day, I still use them daily and always see good results.

I just rec’d your email about Safelists. I just started using them. I was wondering and have not been able to find the answer so far.
When you advertise on a safelist and you receive mail to your email inbox, can you add these people as your own subscribers or are you only able to email them through the safelist?
