Are Safelists Good?

Deedboy · 06-29-07, 06:50 AM

Is anyone getting rich with this marketing method?

I think this is a little worse because most of the emails you send are just few of millions that the target receives. I think that when a person looks at his email inbox he delete those emails without reading them because they're too much and they seems all the same.

Does anyone know some techniques to attract the target?

And do you think that safelists are a powerful marketing method?

p.s. sorry, my english isn't too good

I don't like it but it may work for some body, but not me.

Safelists send so many emails that nobody actually looks at them, they are just deleted. It's just a waste of time and you get a lot of junk email. There are better ways to spend you time and/or money.

Well Safelists not good for marketing because of most of mail user does not looks mails and they just deleted. It is a waste of time and money. I think there few some good way of matketing which gives you better results for you.

I read a post once by a fellow that stated 'use whatever you can to promote your business'. And I think if you do use a safelist the credit based list has a better chance of being viewed than a safelist that is just sent out to everyone that has signed up.

what do you mean by a credit base list

I DO get responses from some safelist advertising but here are a few things to keep in mind:

Use a good subject line. This may take some experimentation. But it must be attention grabbing and not boring.

Do NOT promote your main business. In other words most safelist members are also promoting their businesses so they are not likely to be looking for another biz opp to join.

Best thing to promote on a safelist is something that would be helpful to the members like information products, tools they can use in their promotions, resources, etc.

Do NOT try to sell your lotions and potions through a safelist.

Do NOT send an ad that's 10 paragraphs long. Most people are not going to read it. You simply want to grab their attention enough to get them to click on your link. If you have a good enough website things will be explained there. You don't need to do it in your email.

Use an ad tracker so you know whether or not your links are getting clicked on.

And also use safelists that reward people for clicking on someone's email or link there within.
Better chance of your email or website being seen. Rewards are usually something like credits/points (some safelsits have other rewards like prizes worth banner impressions or even small cash) which can be used to post your ads.

That's it for now....

If you have a good opportunity it works, but you've got to know what to promote. And create good ad copy. It's not the most effective form of advertising out there but it does work.

At least for me i guess.

Hi,

YES, safelists work. Me personally, I go to my list email every day and clear it out, delete everything. So how can that work? Isn't everybody doing the same?

No, surprisingly, they are not. Don't forget there are many people out there using safelists and traffic exchanges to promote their business, but there are even more, new people searching for an opportunity that speaks to them, going online for the first time, etc. that DO NOT treat traffic exchanges and safelists the same way some of us internet marketers do. Those are the people we are trying to find.

For me, I have proof that they work, because I do not promote my primary business directly. My system has a sign-up tracker that tells me where each person who joins me came from, be it a capture page, a traffic exchange or a safelist. So I know for a fact that safelists work, if you work them.

Don't forget the basics. BE CONSISTENT AND PERSITENT and you will succeed. Here is a formula. X number of exposures to your opportunity = goals realized. It is that simple.

There is a great place to find the hottest and most effective traffic exchanges and safelists, and that is a place called TrafficHoopla. You can sign up free here: TrafficHoopla is a free traffic builder

I guarantee that if you create accounts at the best safelists, and submit effective ads consistently and persistently on an ongoing basis, you will see results. I do.

Thanks,
