    Hello Friends,

    Do you know 70% of affiliate business is coming from email marketing ? I just want to learn few things.

    1. Email list source... Can we buy email lists with time stamps and IP
    2. Where are the servers to send those millions of mails daily.

    Regards
    Sam

    Not to worry! IF somebody, namely those millions of subscribers you mention, want your e-mail, they will flock to your site and sign up. I guarantee it. Give your site 48 hours and billions may sign up. Happens every day.

    This is not spam. he is talking about legit email marketing (that's why he asked for timestamp etc.)

    Sure you can buy thoose lists and servers, but it's more usefull to build your own lists on your niche anyways.

    I agree with multicolorguru, However I know a very well known guru whose uses these million email marketing services and he says he has good results. Of course you want to use a good mailing list make sure they ware double optin, and the company is legit. and I must add when they are legit they charge arms and legs.
    anyway when you do this, you can build your own list.
    make sure you have user frindly site before yous pend the money.

    good luck

    Well yeah there's tons of money with mass mailing on thoose million email lists. problem just is you need huge resources expensive emailing software/scripts + servers.
    point being, this aint for anyone who needs to ask about it.

    That's why I suggested to build your own niche list (you'll get more out of this anyways).

    As long as you build a legit, opt in list that has an opt out link when you send every email, it's fine. Buying a list can be rather risky so the best course of action as described above is to build your own opt in list. There's a free video course on email marketing in my sig if it helps you.

    And, speaking from experience, a targeted opt in list is one of the most valuable assets your online business will ever have.

    Forget about it. It's not worth it to buy lists, legit or otherwise. As they said, it's better to build your own.
