Joel Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 What ticks you off or makes you happy when safelisting? A few of my own dislikes includes:Being forced to view ads before I can send.Having to click "Leave this page" after every single ad (a few safelists do have this "feature", it's not the advertiser's doing)Captcha security checks (I'd much rather do a simple click on an icon rather than have to type in 2 or 3 words)Tiny credit rewards (1 credit per ad? Really??) My likes include:Short timers for non-paid ads (Contact solos and the like, sure, but why 30 seconds for free ads??)Opening at least 10 ads at a time, with timers running simultaneously.Personalization on free account mailings So what are your likes/dislikes?

apsuccess Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 I don't like floods of email in my inbox. I dream of a list that allows me to receive less emails for a small upgrade price. I like the exposure. Quote Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted June 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Thanks for your input, apsuccess. That would be nice, for sure. Anyone else? My intention here is not to be confrontational or to diss anyone's list. I'm just trying to get a feel for what people like/dislike, in case I want to run my own in the near future.

Len Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Too time consuming and not knowing what the traffic is really like no stats etc. Quote http://i.imgur.com/PuY9j9V.pngEmail Marketing Training At It's Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margot Lawrence Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 I dislike the ones where I've paid for an upgrade and then find that it's impossible to actually mail to the maximum limit of my upgrade - for example, if my upgrade allows me to mail up to 3000 every 3 days, but I only earn 10 credits for each mail that I click and I only receive 5 mails per day...

wordsmatter2me Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 For me I dislike having more email credits that one can use in the day and especially being limited to the amount of emails one can send in a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

market101 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 I dislike having to watch a video before I get to see the Q & A and other stats. If I have to see a video 1st, I delete the whole thing. Unless it was sent to me from someone I trust a whole lot! Also, 30 sec ads are a waste of time. 10 sec should be the maximum. As far as your inbox being flooded; no one I know gives out their real email address.

Kevin J Timothy Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 The thing that peeves me the most about using safelistsis when you receive your own email advertisements. I don't believe all safelists allow this, but I am a memberof some that after you send out your very own ad, youwill see it in your own inbox. It defeats the purpose, not to mention skews the CTR stats. What sense does it make for you to view your own ad? Quote I get super high on this tree!

ansgar Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 What I dislike the most: Having to click through the same Upsells EVERY day when logging in....Seeing tons of ads and solos for obvious ScamsNot being allowed to use as many credits as I earn as a free member Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 I appreciate all the responses so far, and welcome more. It's helping me to figure out how to best serve the people who join my safelist when I launch it in the near future. Quote Taking another kick at the can, because I can.

An upsell every now & then would be fine, as a reminder, but every single time is just too much. Seeing tons of ads and solos for obvious Scams Agreed, though I'm not sure how that can be avoided without hiring a full-time team of vetters to check every business opportunity that gets advertised. Not being allowed to use as many credits as I earn as a free member Again, yes, that doesn't seem fair. Not sure what the logic is behind it, but I'll probably find out when I start running my own list. Quote Taking another kick at the can, because I can.

Robert David Smith Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 I would like to add the same banner more than one time. Many sites will not allow that.I figure if I earn the credits or have an upgraded account, that I should be able to use the banner more than once!

Guest kingmaker Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Sometime its the persons ad link and not the Owners fault no no it is hosting firewall setting, to block some range of ip, so in that you will get 403 forbidden error.

Many sites will not allow that.I figure if I earn the credits or have an upgraded account, that I should be able to use the banner more than once!If I understand SL's correctly instead of putting the same banner in more than once just add credits to the banner, should result in the same thing, in some SL's I have the same banner more than once but that is due to either a mistake on my part or the older version has expired. I think you would want a different banner for the same site instead of the same banner more than once, This is just what I have observed having been in this for more than 5 years. Those who own SL;s and TE's should chime in here since they have the most knowledge of how these work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

I can see the value of more than one, I thought one would get the results of two but I see the flaw in my thinking, I thought that the owners would try to avoid having the same item repeated but I guess not.

Len Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 The think I like most are the one's that have solo ads, they seem to get a better response rate rather than the emailer they use.

target Posted October 17, 2015 Report Share Posted October 17, 2015 One thing that grinds my gears is a site that lets you accumulate small sums of cash but will not allow you to purchase network ads with the balance. If they call it cash but do not accept it as cash it smells pretty bad. Another issue is a site that does not disclose the size of its membership. I have joined sites that turned out to only have ,say ,65 members. I have promoted and recruited 3 or 4more and a year later the membership stands at about 70. If a site is fairly new it can be advantageous to get in early but a site that has been around for a while and still has a tiny membership is a total waste of time. If the owner does not promote his own site what else does not get done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diane Mumm Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Oh boy this is a loaded question.. I have a few things I wish would change with mailers.. 1)can only open few mails at a time 2)1-5 credits per click I often wonder if some of these owners do any surfing , as I feel if they did they would see what a pain this is.. 3)Mailing to inactive members-meaning many signup to a mailer and never again use it or they only use it once in a great while.. 4) Not enough credits to earn when upgraded to mail to the entire membership for the month.. say they have 4000 subscribed members, and I can only have enough mails to earn 1000 credits.. for that next days mailing, this means I don't reach all the members.. really pointless.. 5) yes multiple ads when you log in... very spammy!

captkirk Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi Joel. I don't have any dislikes using safelist. I like that I post my ads to the members without having a list of my own.
