    I have an email list which i bought from someone on another forum. There are 1 million+ emails in that list. Person who sold it to me told me that it is opt in and not harvested however i doubt that because i bought it for very cheap price. I now want to send out emails about my website which is listed in all major search engines including google. I do not have adsense on the site but i do plan to put adsense soon. Do you think sending emails will get me banned from search engines. I know it can from adsense thats why i dont have adsense on it yet but after 1 advertising shoot i will put adsense after few days. What do you guys think,suggest

    Will it get me banned from search engines ... Google :( :confused:

    No, it wont get you banned from search engines.

    I could send out spam from all of my competitors if that was true.

    I really don't think the engines can ban you for this, however if a couple people on the e-mail list report you as spam to your host you may lose your site.

    I just doubt very much whether the emails are genuine, never mind opt-in............your local ISP will jump all over you if you try and send from your local connection

    Just be careful as it is best to not get into trouble .......... a hard working trouble free working day is best... that usually brings in a few bucks

    I think IMHO:)

    Then don't spam! Why the hell are you asking us?

    If you're going to spam, you should at least understand how to spam and what the risks are.

    Good luck! :rolleyes:

    Thats why i have hired someone in Ukraine to do that for me and my servers are in Pakistan. I doubt that emails are opt-in because i bought that list for $45 and if i owned something like that and it was opt-in quality list i wouldnt sell it for $45 but maybe its just me

    I am not going to spam. Well i am not considering it spam because to my knowledge it is opt-in and i will have everything in place to comply with spam laws like opt-out link. I however want to know if it is possibility that it can happen. Well Rob i dont understand your high IQ level answers :D :D So you might want to clarify that to help me out plzz :)

    Just make sure your email has a link for people to be removed from the list.

    email spam will not get you banned from google.

    it might get you banned from your host or ISP though
