    Spamming can be an aspect of email marketing (a very low efficient way of doing it). If you want to market your site via email, instead of sending them to masses of people (usually who don't want it), use a newsletter instead.. and send them to people who actually sign up for it. This is more efficient.

    With email marketing you can get of the list!! With spamming this is not possible.
    Also most of the time you signed up (opt-in list) on email markting site.

    Don't send unsolicited emails to people.

    If you have some newsletters or some email list building technique through which you have made a mailing list then you can send them emails.

    Personal thought: Don't send lots and lots of emails. Send less but send perfectly groomed emails so that the person reading it would click on it the next time he sees it is from you.

    Thanks.

    It's up to law in the particular country. In EU most countries have a "opt-in law" (not "opt-out"). What is the difference?

    Opt-in: you should put your email, agree to conditions and only after this you will be getting mails

    Opt-out: they can get your email in some way and you will be able only to unsubscribe

    I think one should focus on opt-in marketing, meaning, everywhere you can try to get someone to subscribe to your mail list and send them relevant marketing information.

    Yes, newsletter is the best way to get traffic. But do not send bulk email to any email account.

    thank you

    Apart from the legal differences... email marketing works, emailing spamming doesn't.

    The easiest way to start marketing via email is to create a special report or ebook then setup a name capture page where people have to sign up to your email list to receive the special report.

    You give the report away for free in order to build your list, which you can then offer your other products and affiliate products.

    Obviously you can make this system much more complex, but that is a good place to start.

    Regards
    Kyle

    A spam message is an unsolicited, usually commercial e-mail message.

    Spamming is the process of sending unsolicited commercial mail to readers.Apart from being an offense, it is a trial and error method of marketing a site. Email marketing refers to the practice of reaching out to potential customers through email messages.There are many ways to go about this marketing including building email lists and ezine subscription.

    Try to ask yourself,if a foreign email asking your to join an investment,isn't you believe it or just delete?Frankly talk I'll delete this email.Spamming is non proper marketing strategi.Avoid spamming to have high credibility as an internet marketer.
