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.

To your success,

Frank

My review of List Hero

After probably almost a year of being a member of List Hero and not
doing anything with it (when I joined I didn’t know what I was doing),
I decided to delete my account and signup again (so I could take
advantage of the OTO :) ).
List Hero is a program that helps you build your list, if you have
an autoresponder account, with GetResponse, AWeber or similar
companies.


You join and then follow 7 simple steps to setup your account, then
you paste a snippet of Javascript on all your sites.  The code
produces an exit grabber popup “squeeze page” that shows
your ad along with other List Hero members’ ads.  Visitors leaving
your site will have a chance to optin to your newsletter as well as
the other members’ newsletters.  Similar to a coregistration system.
You get points every time your ads show, so the more points you
have the more times your ad is shown across the List Hero
network of members.
I rejoined about a week ago and already have 51 optins!  You can
see proof here:
Not too bad for adding the code to a just a few of my websites!
I am very impressed with List Hero, it works great for me, I know
it will for you too..

good blog post about double optin verification

I need to read Aweber’s blog more often. It is a wealth of information.

Twitter – I joined finally

Published on April 27, 2008 by in web 2.0

Do you Twitter?

I was ignoring this site for a while but kept hearing and reading about it…so I gave in… and I have to tell you, it’s pretty nifty once you check it out.

Think of it as quick way to stay in touch with your friends, clients, potential clients and future business partners.

It’s easy to use and free.

Get started using Twitter and “follow” some of the top marketers; in no time you’ll notice people start following you!

See you there.

List Joe Review – Is List Joe’s OTO Worth It?

I wanted to let you know about this site you might have overlooked.

This powerful advertising resource makes me money every 3 days, like clockwork.

I joined List Joe less than 3 months ago after hearing about it for over a year and never joining.

I wish I would have joined back then!

For every email you read, you can earn anywhere from 5 – 20
credits.  And every credit you receive means you can email 1 random person in the list.

Here’s a screenshot of referrals to my site after 1 of my mailings on List Joe:

Of course, results will vary depending on your ad

You’ll get about 20+ emails a day, so you can easily earn 100-300 credits per day.

Which means at the end of the week, you can email 1000-1500+ random members.

You get 100 credits free just for signing up and you can promote up to 9 listbuilders at the same time.

If you have the funds… Truly consider the one-time offer.  It is only $197.  It allows you to email 3,000 members every 3 days***  And if you buy the OTO, you’ll get $100 for every OTO you refer!  I’ve only referred 35 members and 5 have have bought the OTO.  That is over a 14% conversion!  So you’ll not only make money promoting your programs on List Joe, you’ll also make money promoting List Joe!

So my review is….join today!
