Some Helpful Tips when Joining Sites Part One

Some Helpful Tips when Joining Sites Part One

Choosing a Good Email Address is Important!

First Off, You need to know that when you join a Safe list or Mailing List
You Will Receive a Whole lot of mail.
I recommend using Gmail.com it is Free and Safe list Friendly. This is provided by Google
https://www.google.com/

Do NOT use Your ISP email box: by this I mean Your Internet provider whether it is AOL, Frontier, charter.net ,cox.net etc.. they do not allow bulk emails and will block the Safe list from sending emails to your Account.
Most Safe lists, List mailers/ Ad Exchanges etc provide a Banned Domain list and you will find most ISP providers will be listed.
When you join a Safe lists, List mailers/ Ad Exchanges etc.. Check out their banned domains list.

Also: I have seen a lot of people use their own domain address: username@Yourdomain.com
This also causes problems with the mail as most hosting providers have a limit to the emails that are allowed to be mailed to a box per hour! If you belong to 25-50 or more Safe lists especially as a Free member
The mail will Exceed what your hosting company will allow and the mail will back up in the Server that the Site is being hosted on.. waiting to be sent out to your domain address.
I know this as I host many safe lists on our servers. I have checked our servers and have found hundreds of emails to Domain addresses sitting there Just waiting to be delivered. So please use a Gmail.com email address or a Safe list Friendly email box when joining.

Most Safe lists, List mailers/ Ad Exchanges etc.. do not allow: hotmail, msn, yahoo, etc either as they block emails from the safe lists.
Especially if there was a lot of mail that has gone into the Spam folder.

Always White List and Use Filters!

Once You Join a Site Use Your Filters!
Always White list the Email address from the site you just joined
Gmail now has a nice feature when you open the email to Validate your email address
Open the email
Look at the top right corner of that email where it says: Reply
there is an arrow that points down
Click that with your mouse
Scroll to Add to contact list
this will white list that email address
Do this for your Contact and List Email address (for Safe lists)

Now Add a Filter
This function is Easy to do in Gmail
This function is Also listed to the right of the opened email same as above
or click on Settings in the Very Top Far Right of your screen
Then click on Filters
This will provide you with labels to direct Your Emails to go in those folders (labels)
You can skip the inbox completely and just have your emails going into the labeled area
You can request it Never to go to Spam folder
Check it out ..it sure will make your life easier and free up a lot of your time!
If you find a Fellow Marketer that You want to make sure you see their Ads and what they are promoting
Make a Filter with their user name of that list by using the filter function :"That has the words"
All Safe lists provide the user name at the very bottom of each email that was sent.. so when you use the function:
:"That has the words" The filter will search all the emails with that user name and filter them for you. I love Filters! Can You Tell!

Remember with a Safe list they will ask for 2 email addresses:
Contact Email Address: where you will receive Admin updates/ important news regarding contests etc.. , and Solo Ads which are Purchased Advertising sent to all members with higher credits.
2nd Email Address is your subscription/list email address:
This is where you will get a whole lot of emails especially as a free member.

Be Respectful to Your Fellow Marketers
You want people to Read Your Ads You Send Out so it is Only but right to Read Others Emails Also!
Of course when you join Many Safe lists, List mailers/ Ad Exchanges etc and Receiving hundreds to thousands per day. it is difficult to Read ALL of your email. That is not productive of your time!
That is why it is important as a Marketer to use Catchy subject lines to Grab the Readers Attention

Until Next Time
Happy Marketing!

Best Wishes to Your Success

May your troubles be less,
your blessings more,
and nothing but happiness comes through your door!

How to Filter Standard Mail from Credit Mail from Safe lists at Gmail

How To Filter Out Credit Emails from Standard Mailers at Gmail Email Boxes

This Article will tell you step by Step instructions as to how to filter your email at Gmail Email Accounts to Separate the Standard Mail from the Credit Based Emails from a Particular Safe list so that You can find your Credit links Easily

I had been asked how to filter the emails that you receive from Safe lists that allow Standard Mail
and have Credit Emails to click.

Like I stated in my other article (New to Internet Marketing? What are Safe lists?  )
I do not open any Standard Emails as I feel that the members who use them do not have Credits which means to me that they are not earning the Credits (Reading other members emails)
So I use a Filter to separate the 2 emails from that particular Safe list

Here is how:
Log in to your Gmail box
Click on Settings
Click on Filter
Scroll down to Set Up Filter
Where it says From: Add the Email Address of the Safe list you want to filter
Bounce@thesafelist.com
Click Next Step


Tick the Box next to: Apply the label:
Use the Scroll bar and choose NEW Label
type in the name of the Safe list here
Tick box: Never sent to Spam
then before you Click Create Filter look to the right of it
It will tell how many emails are in your box with that particular email address
with a Tick box next to it: Also apply filter to 500 conversations below.
If you have lots of emails as I do .. tick that box
then click Create Filter

Now Go Back to the Set up Filters as instructed above
this time
Add the email address Again as you did above
Now this time Look to the Right it says:
Has the words:
This time put in this box:Click this link to earn credits
or put in: to earn credits

Click Next Step
(You can tick the box: Skip inbox if you want NONE of these emails to go in the inbox and be sent directly to
the label)
Go to the Apply Label Again and this time make a new label with:
The safe list name Credits
and tick never send to Spam
now look at the tick box on the right of Apply filter if it says you have:
Also apply filter to 200 conversations below
Tick that box and Apply filter

Walla it is made successfully

Now I have to Make mention for you to be aware of this:
When emptying the boxes
Go to Your : The Safe list Credits Label FIRST
click all the emails with Credits you want to click then go to
the label with Just the Safe list Name and then empty that
This will Empty BOTH labels.

My mistake was I emptied the safe list label and then went to the safe list label Credits and it was empty! As Gmail will combine ALL email in the Main Safe list Label and separate them into the Credit label

Hope this helps and hopefully it makes sense
Let me know if you need further help

Best Wishes

New to Internet Marketing? What are Safe lists?

New to Internet Marketing? What are Safe Lists and How Can they Help You to Advertise Your Business, Affiliate Marketing and More?

You may have Read My First Post Introducing Myself with Links to Safe lists, Text Ad Exchanges, and Other Advertising places that I own. You may ask what the difference is between them?

I personally use Several different Advertising types but the majority of the time, I use Safe lists and Text Ad Exchanges for my Advertising Needs.

Safe lists are spam free email marketing. The members are double opt in
and all members agree to receive emails from other members.

The Safe lists I  join, are the Credit Based Safe lists - Members Earn Credits to send their Ads to other members.
I prefer Safe list ProX type Safe lists, as most of the other types of Safe lists have submitters attached to them and are not as responsive!

Safe lists offer Several Membership types:
Most of them are Free to Join
Free Members usually have to Read more Emails and Click the Credit
Links inside the emails to earn points. With the Safe list PorX type you view the Website for X amount of Seconds to receive Your Credits. Each Safe list Varies as to the length of the timer.
Usually Free Members can only send an Ad to Other Free Members to the list and Only allowed to Send once every 3-5 days.

Some Safe lists also have a Standard Mailer- which has NO Credit Links inside the emails to earn Credits- I personally do not Like these types and Your Email box is full of Unwanted Emails with No Credits. (If you belong to this type of List, then you will want to set up filters to separate the credit emails from the standard mailer emails).
I have all of my safe lists set up so that the Standard Mailer is Removed and only have the Credit mailers for our members to use. This keeps the list more responsive in my opinion
and keeps the mail to a minimum, and Active members who are reading other members ads are sending out and being rewarded for their efforts.


Pro Membership:
Some Safe lists when they open their doors give Free PRO memberships away to X amount of members to get their lists Started. Pro Members can mail to other pro members and Free members. This gives you a bigger membership base to mail to.
They usually can mail to the list more often then the Free members and they also Earn Higher Credits per Email/Credit Link Viewed.

Executive Members:
In some Safe lists this is the top level membership and can mail to All members to the list .
They usually can mail 2-5 emails a day and in most sites can mail daily or every 2 days.
This is far more responsive as you reach more members and get your Ads out more often.

A person usually has to Read an Ad or See a Website Several Times Before they join, so the more you can mail out, the better chance you have for people to join or purchase your product!

Some sites also provide their Executive Members with Monthly Solo Ads as a bonus
These are the Safe lists I love to belong to!
A Solo Ad is sent out to the Contact Email Address where they have a Far better chance to be Read, plus they also give the members Higher Credits for Viewing the website. So members like to click these emails as they build their credits up faster than viewing members ads that go to their subscription/list email address.

Safe lists require a Contact Email Address- for Admin emails/updates and Solo Ads to be sent. They also Require a 2nd Email Address: Subscription/list email address: where all members ads are sent and for some Safe lists they send out List Solo Ads.

Be Careful when you do purchase Solo Ads as some Safe lists Sell List Solo Ads which are lower priced and do not Receive as many views as they are sent to the subscription /list email address NOT the Contact Email Address where Solo Ads are sent. They still provide more click rates then a regular member ad does but Solo Ads receive a lot more clicks/views
and are more responsive. So Read Carefully as to what you are purchasing.

Some Safe lists have Top Level memberships that Receive NO Members Ads, so no emails are sent to the subscription/list email address at all.. The only emails this membership receives are Admin updates and Solo Ads.
This is an Awesome membership as they provide their Top Level membership More time to Advertise and not worry about the Emails and Clicking for Credits! This membership usually also receives monthly credits and monthly solo Ads with your membership so it provides you with Excellent Advertising at a low cost. These Safe lists give you More Bang for your Buck and Save you lots of Money and Time!

Safe lists also provide their members with Banner and Text Advertising.
The banners rotate around the site and in Some Safe lists they rotate on each click link when viewing a members Ad and clicking for credits. Some safe lists do not have this set up, but I love the ones that do as it gives the members more exposure to their banners! In a Safe lists members do not receive credits for Clicking on Banners or Text Ads!
Where in Text Ad Exchanges members DO Receive Credits for viewing All types of Advertising. I will write another Article about Text Ad Exchanges soon.


I hope this Article helps give you a better understanding of how the Credit Based Safe lists work and the different types of memberships available. They provide and Excellent Spam Free Way to Advertise Your Business or Affiliate Marketing.!

Best Wishes to Your Success
