    If it sounds too good to be true, it often is.

    Remember that.

    It's better to take your time and do it right than fuck up so bad to begin with that you get banned, blacklisted, and who knows what else :cool:

    All that matters is how many of those 100,000 actually lead to a conversion

    il tell you what sort of question it is, Are these companies that claim to send your email to 100 000 people reputable?

    Not that hard to understand rearly is it dct, They claim to send them to there safelists SPAM FREE.

    It was just a simple question dct, you only learn by asking.

    Lot of wankers in here, thanks for everyone who posts serious answers. Like i said before, still tryin to get my feet on the ground and its very easy to waste a lot of money on advertising.

    As a serious answer then it’s probably not worth it IMO. My previous answer was not one of my best for which I apologise, spam annoys me.

    The only time the 100,000 would be worth it is if you knew the company they were being mailed by.

    Is it part of an opt-in system? Is your Site related to theirs?

    If its a random group of emails the best case scenario is no conversions, while the worst is a violation of some of the laws concerning Spam.

    Just ignore and post good posts...People have short memories. When DCT wrote that, most people here were annoyed with you.

    Now its in the past so its best to just get on with it. The more you call attention to it, the more chance of people looking through your post history to see what you are talking about.

    Cheers
