How To Use Safelists Effectively

Posted in marketing, online marketing, how to market online, safelists at 4:44 pm

Safelist marketing is a great way to get free targeted traffic to any website you own, but if you do not know how to use safelists the right way you will just find yourself spinning your wheels time after time. Believe it or not there is a correct way and a wrong way to go about using safelists.

Today I would like to share with you the correct way to utilize safelist marketing so it can become more profitable and useful for your business.

Now before you join any safelist the first thing you must do is create two junk email accounts, and to do this I recommend you use Gmail which a free email service provided by Google.

Why do you need two junk emails? When you join a bunch of safelists you will start getting a ton of emails, and we all know that you do not want your main email address filling up with a lot of emails now do you? I didnt think so.

Once you completed the sign up process for your two junk emails the next thing to do is join some safelists. Here again you do not just want to join any safelist as not every one of them offers good quality. The quickest and fastest way to find good quality safelists to join is to do a simple search in Google using keywords like free safelists, or credit based safelist.

Which ever safelist you decide to join make sure it is a credit based safelist. With a credit based safelist it ensures members click on the links in the email messages. For each link they click on they earn credits to use to send their own email out.

The next part is sending out your email message. The most important thing about your email will be your headline. You need to write a creative headline that will draw peoples attention, and make them click on it.

To get a good idea of headlines to use simply look at your own email and see what headlines others are using. Then determine which headlines stuck out to you and made you click on them.

Now there is a certain time of day you should send your email out. Some prefer morning others at night, but I like to send my email messages out around lunch time. This way you catch people when they are more likely in front of a computer and probably checking their email.

Apply the above steps and strategies and you can turn any safelist you join into a lead generating machine over night.

Free Classified Tricks and Tips

Posted in marketing, online marketing, how to market online, free traffic at 4:19 pm

If you are an Internet marketer I’m sure at one time or another you’ve posted on free or even paid classified ad sites. Do they really work though, and if they do how would someone get the best results they can?

When I post to my free classified sites I don’t really do anything special expect for a few minor things that boost my click threw rate. You see the most important thing you need to worry about when posting on a free classified site is your headline. Some sites you post to might even put a short description about your ad, and if they do that then you will need to come up with a creative description.

However before I even post an ad I look to see which part of the site gets the most traffic. Once I find where a good majority of the traffic is flowing to I choose a topic to post in that is relevant to my website.

Now its time for the all mighty headline, this will determine how well your ad does. When I write my headline I like to use this website Headline Help. It helps rate your headline with a score from 0 – 100.

In my headlines I try to use words that make people take action like Free, Discover, Learn, Easy, and How to headlines. I find using powerful words helps give you a better click threw rate, and that’s our main goal.

After your headline some classified sites allow you to write a description for your ad, or they use the first few lines you type in your ad as the description. This is another important part.

A lot of people will read your description, and if it doesn’t fit what they are looking for they will not even bother to click on your ad.

So when writing my descriptions I try to be very specific, and tell the user what my ad is about. Why do I do this? I’m looking for a targeted audience, and the more details I can give the person clicking on my ad, the more targeted they will be.

What places do I recommend?

UsFreeAds – This is my favorite place by far, and I like them for a number of difference reasons. One I’ve confirmed a number of sales from this site, and two I love the featured classified option they offer. The amount of traffic this site gets is great which means your ads get a lot of views.

Cash Gifting – Should You Do It

Posted in money, cash gifting at 4:20 pm

Cash Gifting has been blowing up all over the Internet, and it seems like people everywhere are now starting to join some type of gifting program. If you look around on the Internet a new trend is starting. What is it? A new cash gifting system is popping up once a week.

Before cash gifting became big nobody was willing to do it. People where afraid to even say the word “cash gifting”. Now these new systems coming out claim to automated the process, and do 99% of the work for you. They get more hyped up and flashy looking, but they all offer the same exact thing, a cash gifting program with no real value. All you get is the ability to allow others to send you money.

When this starts to happen in a business it means one thing. Gifting will soon be slowing down, and people will find some new type of business to flock to.

Now I’m not saying cash gifting doesn’t work, but have you looked on YouTube yet? Hundreds even thousands of videos are on there, and half the time you see the same gifting video over and over again. It’s even gotten to the point where people are copying one another’s videos and claiming them as their own “video proof”.

Here are some things you should look at before you deiced to join a cash gifting system.

• Is the person you’re joining actually making any money? If your sponsor isn’t making money in gifting then they probably don’t really know what they are doing, and won’t be able to help you out to much.

• Looking out for to good to be true deals like “I’ll let you join for $500 and automatically upgrade you to the $3,500 level”. This is a big warning sign that the person is not doing so hot in cash gifting, and they are willing to do anything to get you to give them your money.

• Will your sponsor be able to help you and answer questions if you have any? Make sure your sponsor is willing to help you. By helping I mean showing you how to advertise, and where to advertise. Also they should be able to talk to you on the phone if you request a phone call for help.

So if your thinking about joining a cash gifting program do so at your own risk, but look out for the tell tail warning signs of joining a bad sponsor.
