GetResponse released something called Perfect Timing, which sends the broadcast to the individuals on your list at the time they are most likely to open it. They said it increases opens by 23% and click rates by 20%. It's not useful for time-sensitive broadcasts but if there is no rush it's pretty cool.

As I own the sites there really is no need to join under me

Well, with many of my sites you can select how many mails you want to receive per day, and you will receive no more than that many. For example, Adchiever, BuildMyDownlines, DownlineMaxx.. but I don't think I've rolled it out to all of my sites. Apart from that, I'm not aware of any sites that do that.

Abandoned Safelists/Mailers
Darren Olander replied to Steve Jones's topic in Safelists, Mailers, Autoresponders
I don't think so.. I don't see anyone using that anymore. -
No, if you put the same banner in more than once and they all have credits assigned you will get more impressions than if you had just one banner. (two banners = twice the impressions) The system is rotating all the banners evenly instead of per account.

Traffic Exchanges? Useful or Waste of Time?
Darren Olander replied to Kurt Tasche's topic in PTC & Traffic Exchanges
For me the biggest benefit of TEs is getting referrals. As you get referrals and they surf.. most TEs reward you with free credits from your downline activity.. which can generate a lot of free traffic if you build considerable downlines. Use a downline builder and get the same people joining multiple different TEs and doing that is not too hard.- 96 replies

I noticed you're not using a tracking link.. how do you know what kind of results you are getting from craigslist? Also I've heard sometimes they "ghost ban" people at times, not sure if that is the correct term, but it means you will see your ad but other people will not.. you must have avoided it by only having a limited amount of ads at a time and deleting your old ones? I think that's important for anyone looking to give it a try.

For me PPC and Solo Ads.

Avoid Twice Confirmed Traffic At All Cost
Darren Olander replied to a topic in Scams, Rip-offs, and More
It appears to be from the same person - there is a thread on it here: http://www.marketingcheckpoint.com/topic/749-anyone-tried-organic-prospects/?hl=%2Borganic+%2Bprospects -
I wouldn't call it a scam.. but I hear they have upsells past the $7 - so it's not actually just $7.

Personally I really like GetResponse, they have reliable delivery, everything is easy to use, and they are pushing it with innovation. Recently they released a "perfect timing" option when sending broadcasts that will send the broadcast to a user at the time of day that they are most likely to open and read your mail... pretty cool idea! They say it is increasing open rates by 23% and click rates by 20%.

HTML mailer problem - any advice?
Darren Olander replied to Joel's topic in Safelists, Mailers, Autoresponders
Interesting.. because I've had a similar issue when adding HTML source code for login ads on other sites (not mailers) where the editor will go grey, but I submit it and it seems to still display properly in the end. Is there a way you can test the message - or receive it yourself? Then you could just paste the code and even if it is greyed out just send and see what it looks like? The other way is not to use the source code and instead just copy and paste into the WSIWYG editor your actual content (not code) and that will not grey anything out. -
4corners seems to be a big one right now, although I'm not in it personally. I've been in GlobalNPN forever. Pureleverage is another one that is still popular I think.

Payment Processors
Darren Olander replied to ViralAdStore.com's topic in Safelists, Mailers, Autoresponders
Good question... PayPal is definitely dominating. I tried bitcoin on about 3 of my sites I think and it wasn't worth integrating for me, but maybe it will pick up in the future. There is a decent amount through Payza, but again PayPal is definitely the lionshare. -
My top tips would be: 1) Use a password management tool such as Roboform or LastPass. It will save you soo much trouble remembering all your logins and help keep everything secure too. 2) Use Google calendar for specific date reminders 3) I now use todoist (if you use google chrome you can add it on to your browser) for putting down tasks, for me it's showing to be better than writing everything down when pen and paper. You can even put it on your smartphone if you want.

Anyone tried Organic Prospects?
Darren Olander replied to celiacoach's topic in PTC & Traffic Exchanges
So many red flags. 1) All sites run by this scammer use the freshdesk support desk. (yea, that's thin since I suppose a lot of people use freshdesk...) 2) The other programs ran by this scammer, as you mentioned one - USA Leads Club and there are others that names escape me.. have the same exact price point. 3) The first review is by a Joshua Purington, Now according to Google you can't find ANYTHING on this person, which is quite unusual in the days we live in. Moreso, Joshua has a website - http://www.joshpurington.com/ - it's a blog, but guess what.. it only has ONE post. And it is of course to support Organic Prospects. This same person with no record of existing online apart from this ONE blog post, has 6 comments from people all super ecstatic about their results from Organic Prospects. Can it get any more unbelievable? 4) There are at least a couple additional fake review sites that are set up that this scammer is utilizing to get search traffic... they are fake because they are sites that are relatively new and have only one post.. and it is about Organic Prospects. For example: http://setupawebsite4free.com/ and http://scambusterdude.com , these one post blogs also have several comments. If you can set up a blog and start getting comments like this online business would be easy huh? I've honestly never imagined someone would go through so much work to scam people. -
Here is a cool free tool that lets you check how the site looks on many mobile devices - http://www.responsinator.com/ Responsive design means your site adapts to how it is being viewed (PC, tablet, mobile phone, etc.).
