Ezine Advertising

These days I’ve tested for a third time within the last 6 months an advertising resource named Solo-Ads Ezine.

Solo-Ads Ezine is the sole ezine I know that is … not an ezine! An ezine is a periodic publication containing articles & information on a specific topic. When you “subscribe” to Solo-Ads Ezine you’ll never receive an ezine. All you receive are solo ads containing links that you have to click on if you want to get credits.

The credits can be used only for buying solo ads and those ads are called Free Solo Ads.

Quite misleading marketing … If you have to work to get something … then it’s NOT free …

First two times I have advertised AdsHome Classified Ad Co-op and the result was disappointing: many hits, no sales. (Here is the result of the first advertising campaign from June 2007).

What I have advertised this time is my brand new report How to Avoid Spam Filters.

For $25 the ad was sent to 4,000 subscribers.

So far the result is the following one:

Dec. 26: 370 hits, no sales.
Dec. 27: 135 hits, no sales.
Dec. 28: 41 hits, no sales.
Dec. 29: 29 hits, no sales.
Dec. 30: 8 hits, no sales.

The result was far much better when I’ve sent the same ad to 550 subscribers of Ad Co-ops News Ezine …

Since this Solo-Ads.com seems to be a kind of traffic exchange program where people click on links to get credits but never read or buy anything …

I am afraid I have to strongly NOT recommend you to waste your time using this advertising resource.

By the way, if you didn’t get yet your copy of “How to Avoid Spam Filters”, you should hurry.

The introductory price is valid only till tomorrow … and your competition may already having and using the information from this report …

Happy New Year!

Trying to save some time for the holidays that are just around the corner, I’ve prepared today in advance some issues of Ezine Advertising Info Newsletter and Ad Co-ops News.

Part of this process was the testing of the ads that are scheduled to be published in the next issues.

I had to modify a lot of words because otherwise the issues were in danger of being blocked by spam filters.

I had to spend a lot of time checking whether the domain names from the links are on a blocklist or not.

You would be surprised to find out how many of the affiliate links you use in your ads or even your own domain names are blacklisted.

Many advertisers don’t have a clue on how much money they lose by using spammer like ads containing lots of exlamations signs, full lines written using only capitals, blacklisted domain names and so on.

It’s not very difficult to learn how to avoid your ads being blocked by spam filters …

But very few advertisers are willing to learn this important part of today’s ezine marketing.

Are you making the same mistake?

Today I will let you know some of the programs that are very much advertised by today’s marketers (they are taken from YOUR ads) while their domain names are blacklisted and consequently creating you big losses if you don’t hide your affiliate link.

If you want to improve the deliverability of your ads there is one single way … learn how to avoid spam filters. Don’t assume that others will do it for you … 90% of the ezine publishers don’t know or wrongly believe they know how to avoid the spam filters. I am not willing to start a war here so I’ll stop … but you would better learn to do it alone.

After a break of almost 2 months, Ezine Ad Helper Solo Ad Co-op is now re-opened.

Very small team (4 ezines only) and subscribers base (12,435 subscribers).

You are not required to subscribe to the ezines that will publish your ad, however the price of a solo ad is – as usually – very high: $49.99.
