Email Lists for Sale Aren’t the Right Lists

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 09:22 AM PST

Don't spam people with unwanted email

When’s the last time you opened your Inbox and were delighted to find all kinds of pitches and offers from companies you never signed up with?

Yeah, we thought so. That’s why Amanda Gagnon of email marketing firm AWeber Communications tells us not to buy email lists.

Amanda explains in her article, Don’t Buy Email Lists, how and where list sellers get the email addresses they’re flogging. She tells us how using these lists can cause companies to be labeled as spammers, a status that can keep a business from reaching its best prospects.

You can learn about other aspects of email marketing in the Learn section of AboutUs.org, and about many other ways to make your company more visible on the Web. Browse through, and let us know if you’d like us to write about another search marketing topic. If you’ve got web marketing expertise of your own to share, let us know: email Editor@AboutUs.org.
