I have never been a fan neither of Alertpay or Payza, though I have to say I have always collected my money, considered that I used the account only for doing and receiving payments. I never withdraw cash, because if the system in principle was the less expensive, it was expensive to us because they did no longer accepted neither prepaid cards nor normal mastercards but only bank transfers, which we have to avoid for the problem of currency. They said it was only a temporary problem, but after one year I checked yesterday and they still do not accept credit cards. I work very well with Paypal since years and I have their credit card too where I can transfer or withdraw money instantly with a simple internet connection. Never had a problem and they are very cautions in transactions and at the least problem they call you personally by phone. Very good service.

I spend most of my spare time on internet. Since my family and personal interests require a lot of time my daytime, I mainly work nightime. I read also a lot. I am not an active presence in social networks because I do not like the kind of relationship. I am quite happy.

Personally getting a commission equals to having done a positive result! Impossible to sponsor whatever product or site out of money. It's also true that hard work is often discoured by profits! The shame is when though working hard you don't get any result, and this is a reality! This appears to me a greater problem than the amount of a commission.

It's very hard to make choices. I think one has to rely on people having his trust for advice and make on selection on the basis of his own attitudes and dreams. The rest requires committment and patience. To my knowledge noone has succeded the day after!

Frank Bauer video is very interesting, as a matter of fact it denies all results from more or less official ranking lists. I am in perfect agreement. In practice he states that whatever you write, whatever your splagepage, readers or non-readers go after credits. And if all mailers, safelists or listbuilders, sent emails without credits, what will happen? Credits equal profits? I don't think so. Let's do an example. If I'm a free member I can send mails every seven days to 500 members, no credit involved. If I upgrade I will have a better capacity of mailing according to the type of upgrade. Again I don't need credits. The topic turns into a problem if I upgrade and even if mailing to a greater number of members I don't get any result. Now, if I need prospects I'm obliged to have recourse to safe swaps or solo ads, etc., to buy my credits knowing per sure that I will get a guaranteed positive results. That's why we quote at 5$ the price or return from a prospect. Then upgrading is convenient or not? And why most mailers presently offer very cheap lifetime upgraded memberships? I would like to come back to Viralurl video to make a real example supporting their theory: FastCashAndTraffic, John Bell, both mailer and TE, does not allow mailing for free, and their emails bear from 1 to 3 credits max. They offer however a minimum fee for mailing -3-4$/m. At this level mailing is reduced and credits very low. They present a high conversion rate, which is real in term of signups. What the right policies to adopt? How to get out of the pond and get a fishing licence for the infinite internet market outside the pond?

I personally don't like big safelists and I don't believe in big numbers, very hardly credible! It's enough we have a saw at our personal lists, and we will be able to verify how many are the active prospects, the ones we can rely on, a great minority. The same is true for our sites whatever they are. I agree with Stefan that the human factor is very important. For instance, the real point of force in the ownership of his site is Catarina and their cat. A joke, he is really fine and deserves his success. Let's talk of mailers in general. Small new ones at the beginning give very good results. With the increase in the no. of members their rate of conversion decreases. After six months, results are absoltely the same with the inconvenience of a smaller audience. As to the relationship with TE's I believe that what is happening is a conversion of TE's to mailers. Surfing was totally impersonal. Then some sites have added a chat. We need to socialize. This need to speak with persons you do not know is not satisfied by our social networks, mailing, the most colloquial possible, is the perfect answer. I think this migration from TE's to mailing sites will be positive. The year of mailers, of course.
