Now This I didn't Know !! a new thread for the odd bits of info about online marketing !!

Now This I didn't Know !! a new thread for the odd bits of info about online marketing !!

This is from Bob Osgoodby's newsletter... and it's about ad submitters
and what really happens when you use them for submitting to ezines !!

-----

Hi Bob, Enjoy your newsletters!  Could you please tell me where
I can get one of those ad submitters that submit to all the
ezines?  I did see one a while ago but must have deleted the
email.  Regards Val

Val - save your money. Most Ezine publishers, including myself,
get bombarded by these submission programs. I have filters in my
email program that automatically dumps ads submitted this way to
the trash bin - they are never even seen. How do we know this
happening, you might ask. Well, when you suddenly get bombarded
with ad requests, you know something is remiss.

Ads are submitted to us through a form on our web site. I
include a special statement on the ad that we receive from the
website, and if it isn't there, the ad is simply dumped. If they
break the code and include that statement in their submission
program, I simply change the statement.

To place an ad in this or any of our other publications, go to:

That's Bob Osgoodby's website and newsletter ....

and there's funny's in his newsletter also !!

   Grins

Eggplants
=-=-=-=-=-=

A grocer put up a sign that read "Eggplants, 25¢ each -- three
for a dollar."

All day long, customers came in exclaiming: "Don't be
ridiculous! I should get four for a dollar!"

Meekly the grocer capitulated and packaged four eggplants. The
tailor next door had been watching these antics and finally
asked the grocer, "Aren't you going to fix the mistake on your
sign?"

"What mistake?" the grocer asked. "Before I put up that sign no
one ever bought more than one eggplant."  

Have a great TODAY

Hi Beth

Thanks for the tip...this is really not suprises though, because I've sent ads in, and they never got published.  But it's nice to know what is happening to our ads.
