I have to agree with what Thomas said about the top traffic exchanges not being used. We have our own but there aren't many members who aren't in the hive team already so we're pretty much preaching to the choir there. I've had a lot of good results using traffic exchanges but I'm also using a lot of splash pages and not using a lot of long pages that take time to read. We need to do a splash page for the mailer and point out all it's fine points for people to be able to read it in less than ten seconds on some timers. Everything needs to be before the fold and it needs to be eye catching. And we need to use the best traffic exchanges that Traffic Hoopla has. As far as safeilsts go, they're only as responsive as the ads you send to them. If your subject lines aren't good enough they won't even open the emails. And the response rate is only about a tenth of the amount of open emails. Out of 100 ads you send about 1 will open the email and there's no guarantee that out of that 100 ads that anyone will buy anything so you have to send to several thousand to get one sale. Mass marketing is expensive. If you don't have a lot of upgraded memberships in safelists you can only send about once a week and then only to a certain amount of people so it's necessary to send daily to several safelists. Your time is also valuable. And it's going to take time no matter what you do unless you have the money to spend on professional advertising. That's where teamwork comes in. When you have several people working together and promoting something as a team, it makes the load lighter and you get more done with less time. But we've got to band together and stop trying to do our own thing. It's going to take a lot of effort to get this done and to make enough money to make it worth our while. I'm not trying to be the bearer of bad news but the way we've all been jumping from one thing to the next isn't cutting it. We have to get busy or we're not going to make any money. Becky

Hi Becky

we could make up an XP Splash Page.I think it is a good Idea to use a Fast to Read Splash Page for Traffic Exchanges and Safelist.

We could use a xp mailer splash page would be kewl. I have been focusing on the mailer. I believe that might be the key to us making some monies here. The more we all promote the mailer the better we will be.

Good day team,

Just one quickie here.

People will open your safe list if it has credits in it.
They might not read it, BUT they will see the splash page
or site. This is a given.

So with a colorful, short, GET IN YOUR FACE splash page the XP
mailer should be able to do well.

Hope one of us can come up with a plan of action.

Dennis has made a awesome splash page to help in the promotion of the xp-mailer. Here is the link I have posted it already around I will hope to get it out there more tomorrow finally a day off.

Let him know what you think about it also.

Keep Smiling
