How to Use Safelists Effectively

Choose a targeted list if you are targeting Internet Marketers, then dont subscribe to lists that are contain home owners. The more focused the list, the better your chances of success.

Use a benefit-laden headline in your ad if you dont capture the attention of users in the brief second they see your headline, they will pass you by.

Use a follow-up strategy direct customers from your ad to your web site or your sequential autoresponder. It often takes up to 7 times for users to see your ad before they respond to your offer. Instead of losing them after the first message, allow them to see another sample of your offer by following up on them every few days. This will increase your chances of making the sale.

Tracking and Testing track the responses to your ads to know exactly which one works and which does not. You can then test which headline pulls the best. After a one-month subscription, you will have some idea if the safelist is worth staying with.

If it isnt, unsubscribe!

If you are getting a good response from the free lists, then pay the monthly subscription fee, so you can send your ad more often. You will also benefit from all the features they provide.

Subscribe as a free member to several paid lists. Test which safelist pulls the best response. Paid safe lists are of higher quality than the ones that are free (no paid subscriptions). As a free member you can often send your ad once a week to all members. If the response is great, pay your subscription and send your ad more often.

Utilizing Opt-in safelists is one strategy in your marketing arsenal that will quickly determine if your ad will be successful.
