Email Marketing via Safelists

Hi, I am an affiliate of the spider web marketing system and although it is FREE program that generates income for you without having to lift a finger, I want to show you how I market the program myself so that you can apply it to this program and any other program of your choice. I want to show you how I market affiliate programs because it works for me, but more importantly because I am fed up with gurus and super affiliates who claim to have made ridiculous sums of money almost magically but who always seem to remain evasive on how it is done. You can, if you choose just wait and see to find out whether I succeed or fail or you can join the program and apply the techniques I use for your own benefit. It is totally FREE to join and as I said, it will generate your income automatically, but I have heard this before and will not take any chances.

Safelists don't Work - That's a Lie!

Many argue that safelists don't work, but they are wrong because they do and I am doing it all the time.

Best Email Tactics - Topics and Headings

You just have to be innovative. You need to choose catchy headings and the angle of the topic should be changed every time you mail. So a program could generate a list and that could be your first topic and the same program could generate traffic and that could be your second angle and the same program yet again might generate earnings. Indeed there could be other angles and you should study the programs so you know what to offer.

Please note that safelist communities are small so if you offer the same thing again and again, the results will start diminishing. So try to figure out when to go onto something else.

Honesty is the Best Policy

Exaggerating or fabricating are not things I like and in my opinion the results are much lower. Besides once you get a down line you want to ensure that they are active and if you exaggerate or fabricate the chances of your down line being profitably active is nil or nearly next next to nil.

The words FREE and HOT are really good to use, but use them when it is true because your readers aren't stupid.

Short is Sweet

I prefer short messages, but you will be surprised at the number of long messages. I prefer to let my readers know everything a single glance.

HTML and Colours

HTML is useful and is my preference as mentioned earlier - most of programs i mentioned before didn't have them, but they yield better results than safelists so don't forget them. Some people use multiple colours and when I started I did too. However after experimenting with different colours and backgrounds, I am convinced that a white background and only one other colour is better. Neon colours hurt my eyes and I suspect they hurt readers eyes too.

To make my mails more catchy, I use tables, sometimes a single small banner, two colours and inverted colours.

If you are worried about not knowing HTML don't be because all of the safelists I have mentioned below have really good rich text editors. You can also use Yahoo rich text editor which you find when posting to groups because it is really easy to use. For it's worth, I don't know html. I understand it, but I don't need to write in html ever because there are great editors out there. Macromedia Dreamweaver and Microsoft Frontpage are some of most famous, but I am sure there are better ones out there.

Automative or Multiple Safelist Submitter

I use only 4 safelists. I have tried the multiple and automative methods, but you need to manage a continuance and it simply is too time consuming if there are too many lists. What I mean my managing a continuance is earning the credits and so unless you only want to mail and few times and then stop forever, I suggest that you stick to a few.

My Choice of Safelists

The safetlists I use are listed below:

FREE Safelist Mailer: You can send to about 16,000 people at a time. List mails earn 75 credits and contact mails earn 5000 credits. You can send every day and the HTML feature is open.

Vital Ad Views: You can send to about 1500 people at a time. List mails earn 55 credits and contact mails earn 300 credits. HTML Feature is available and you can mail once a day. There is also a standard feature in addition to the credit mailer.

The best thing probably is that you get 100 FREE Blasters and good reading on how to make blasters very effective. You are not short of advice in this program and I don't mind the smaller numbers.

SafelistPro: You can send to almost 1000 people. List mails earn 125 credits and contact mails earn 500 credits. You can post once every three days, but although that limits the number of times you can post a week, it actually increases the chances of a sign up.

Tropical List: You can post to only 65 people. List mails earn 35 credits and contact mails 127 credits. When I started there were less than 30 members and you might note it is fairly new.

The most obvious thing you will note is that the potential audience is very small, but that doesn't matter. We are marketing to communities and so even a list as small as tropical list gets you sign ups all the time.

Typical Results with Safelists

Typically I average 2 to 3 sign ups altogether, but over a week that is a good number towards my target of a 100 sign ups.

If you are not happy with the numbers, you can join other safelists after you log in. By the way, I am not claiming that the ones i have suggested are the best, but they work for me and should do the same for you.

All of the above safelists offer great incentives to turn pro or executive, but this blog is about FREE methods of marketing, so please do not think I am suggesting it. You can if you want to at a later date once good and consistent results are proven.

Blasters

By the way, I am not going to mention anything about blasters because vital ad views will give you access to 100 for FREE and to top this up, they will give you sound advice so that you succeed in using them.

As mentioned before blasters are programs that post to safelists except you don't receive mails, so the results are much lower (no credit incentive).

You get a much higher audience, though, and if you search through the search engines you will find 100s more. If you have an audience of a 1 million a day, you will typically get about 1 signup altogether, but on a lucky day (maybe twice a week) you could get 5 to 6. My highest is 11 signups (almost impossible to get), but I have had days with zero, too. You might note that zero sign ups doesn't happen often with the other programs, but with blasters, there is more to it and you can never can tell. But since you do get signups as well as rejections, you can't ignore them altogether.

With non html blasters, I tend to space my lines and keep the lines short. This seems to work best. Capitals are also useful in certain places.
