Description of service

This service description is for safelist advertising online. The cost of $35 is for a solo email to 39,000 opt-in subscribers. Opt-in means that the people have all agreed to receive the emails, so there is no chance of spam complaints. With safelist advertising, generally the customers are all promoters of their own products, and in return for advertising in the emails, they have agreed to be put on the email list.


Review of Service

The quality of the service I received here was fair. Most of the subscribers, myself included, probably use a separate email address for these larger volumes of emails that we receive. Therefore, many of the advertisers here already know that about 75% of these emails will not be read. But, that still leaves about 5000 to 7000 or more emails that will be read. So, based on those figures you will receive at least 5000 business oriented readers for $35. I would recommend this type of service for promotion. You can also expect to get a few orders or leads.


Tips

Many of the safelist websites offer a way to get free advertising. How this works is that you get points/credits for each email you read from them. In return, you can send your solo email to the lists. The amount you can send depends on the amount of credits you have earned. It takes a little time to accumulate enough points to send to the entire list, but, for beginners this is a great way to start without spending any money.
