Email Marketing Strategies And Spam Words

Don't use these spam words in your marketing

by Larry Rivera on November 2, 2009 · 18 comments

Today I am going to share with you one of my email marketing strategies. In just about every circle online you will hear people talk about how important building your list is, however just building a list isn’t enough to make money online.  Most people join something and are given a pre-written follow up email series..

These series can run any wheres from 14 days to a month sometimes longer. This is not enough to get sign ups in your business. I REPEAT this is not enough to get sign ups in your business. I tried for a good 3 years to get my automated follow up emails to close my sales, that simply does not work.

About  2 years ago I came across some information that actually worked for me. I started emailing twice a day this started to get me more exposure and people started seeing my offers more. The bottom line the more times a person sees your offer the better chance you have of getting a conversion.

Some people are worried that if they promote to often they are going to ruin their list, the opposite is true if you don’t promote enough your list will not be interested in what you are doing. If they are on your list they are expecting you to share with them good relevant information.

I promote anything that helps a person continually move towards their end goal. In my case help a person start a home business online in the internet network marketing industry.  I do this by giving away free stuff and by documenting what i do online to drive traffic and get sign ups.

Becoming successful online has very little to do with your actual opportunity. It has everything to do with how you brand yourself  to your subscribers. It is very important that you learn many different ways to advertise online. This is the information that people need most.

Email Marketing Tip:

Spam words

Stay away from using words that trigger  the spam filters, this is not a complete list, but here are some words to avoid. Using these spam words is a one way ticket into the spam folder. I would avoid them like the plague.

This is a great post – just remeber when mailing people in your aweber to check the spam level – after you continue to provide your list exceptional content – its a good time to ask them to add you to their safe list

I hate spam comments because it takes more of my time deleting it. Imagine the 2,000 plus spam comments that you have and deleting it. I have tried a lot of ways and still continue receiving spam comments from different people. I hope that next time I won’t be receiving spam by blocking the spam words that you recommend.

It is true that these are words and titles of spammers. Anyway, the only operating lists are double opt-in, and generally these webmasters do not spam.

The best way to avoid spamming is to provide a captcha code in every blog site that we are use to post at.

Established internet marketers engage in email marketing because it works. Just don’t bombard your subscribers with sales pitches and offers in every single email or you run the risk of losing them. You have to serve them first for their loyalty which can eventually lead to sales.

Good information. Thank you Larry. However, I do believe that even if you avoid these words in the email, it is not going to help much. Sure, most likely it will not get filtered out by spam filter. But people these days are trained to avoid unsolicited emails, the only one who would open them would be internet newbies who are not likely to engage in the internet transactions.
