First part of this article about some ezine ad co-ops can be read by visiting this page: Ezine Ad Co-ops – Don’t throw away your money

Fact # 1: According to Steven Boaze, he stopped publishing his ezine “Boaze Publishing Ezine” in 2008:

Fact # 2: Today, February 22, 2009, some ezine ad co-ops still charge you for publishing your ad in Boaze Publishing Ezine. The following screen captures are taken today and contain also the URL’s of the pages where they were taken from:

There is nothing to be added and I don’t want to comment these facts in any way. Anyone is free to have her/his own comments.

What I hope is that these ezine ad co-ops will stop very soon such practices (or whatever they are) and offer the high quality services that I’m sure they are able to provide to their customers.

I would really want their owners to clean their very outdated lists of ezines, come here and post a comment like, “Hey, that was a terrible mistake due to … We updated our ad co-op and we assure ezine advertisers that such mistake will never happen again.”

We are human beings after all, and we all make mistakes. You make mistakes and I make mistakes. What is important is to correct our mistakes and take care not to repeat them.

For a better world!

Five months and a half ago I’ve told you that my good friend Cor Hartenberg was forced to stop publishing his ezine.

Despite the fact that his main website is no longer available and the blog where he posted his ezine states very clear that Cor is no longer publishing his ezine (see here: http://bnmg.blogspot.com/), many ezine ad co-ops still take your money and promise that your ad will be published in Cor’s ezine BestNews Marketing Gazette.

Almost half of year has passed since BestNews Marketing Gazette is no longer published, but those guys are so busy taking orders from customers that they don’t have time to update their ezine ad co-ops.

Since this cannot be an acceptable situation, here you have the list of ezine ad co-ops where sometimes you may throw away money when buying ezine ads.

P.S. I found these links on Google by searching for “BestNews Marketing Gazette”. All pages are active and the payment buttons the same.

My wife has just told me that something is missing from Ad Co-ops News.

“Well,” I told her, “there may be a lot missing from Ad Co-ops News. I am not perfect … and you know it very well ”

When she told me what I’m missing, well, I admitted that she’s right and here I am … writing this short review.

Starting from next week issue, I will add one more ezine ad co-op to the list of serious ad co-ops monitored weekly in Ad Co-ops News.

The ezine ad co-op I am talking about is DynaVert.

I have a lot of work and monitoring one more ad co-op it takes some time. However, what made me decide so quickly to add it to Ad Co-ops News is that DynaVert is owned by two of my online friends: Carmella Leo, the publisher of The Mini-Marketer Newsletter, and Bobbette Madonna, the publisher of LOGON Newsletter.

Since 2007 I am working with both Carmella and Bobbette on another project and what can I tell you about both of them is that they are professional publishers and very serious persons. That’s being said, I will no longer waste your time but I will tell you that I can guarantee you that using their services you will be treated like a valuable customer and your order will be fulfilled very quickly.

That’s it for today and don’t forget: when you decide to advertise in ezines, give DynaVert a try. I’m sure it worths your time & money!

Update: DynaVert was closed on November 2009.

Two classified ad co-ops now offer some mega bonuses.

An interesting test has been conducted during the last 3 months by Anne Marie, the publisher of Jokes Journal, regarding the subscribers provided by two classified ad co-ops. If you’re an ezine publisher, I recommend you to check the result of the test here:
