Noob Questions

[Alexander27]

Hello everyone, Im new here and after browsing the posts for a week or two Its clear that there are many people here that know whats up. Anyways Im almost done with my first site
Slutsandsmut com and I think it should be up today or tomorrow in its early stages. My questions are firstly, is there a way to email market that isnt gonna get me in trouble? And secondly what are, in your opinions the best sponsors that would give me the best return for my traffic. My site is a free site basically pics and video as well as text links.
Any (valid) info is greatly appreciated.

If email marketing means spam most sponsors will ban you instantly!

which leads to my question. is there a way to email market that wouldnt fall under that catagory (spam).
for one Im not looking to annoy customers the whole point is to get them to come to the site. In addition I dont want to ruffle any feathers with my sponsors. So again is there a way to use email marketing. or is that a useless idea?

If so then what are some good ways of generating traffic/

Email Marketing

Do some research on permission based email marketing and build your email database. There are many ways to do so, through promotions and exclusive offers. An example of this would be a 5 free pics daily in your email site or something that entices the visitor to give you permission to send them email.

I know this is not exactly your question, but you simply cannot send anyone email without receiving their permission to do so.

As for good sponsors, make sure you give us a try! We're a kickass niche that sells like crazy, which means good return for your traffic. Make sure you get in touch with me if you need any help whatsoever.

thanks a bunch I appreciate the info. I have 40k Emails i got from a buddy that has a pay site. All the addresses are of people that have paid memberships to his site. So I know they are in the market so to speak. Im fairly certain they would produce I just dont want to get in trouble or fuk anyone over. should i just trash them or continue to seek a way to legally utilize them? Im gonna try to get my site up by the end of the week. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or info that you guys think could help me be successful. Im determined to make this work.

This is what I would do: have your friend send out the email to his 40k addresses as his site, presenting your site. Check the terms and conditions of his site, and of your sponsor site(s) to assure that everything is ok and not considered spam. If you can't do this either, just accept that it will take a lot of work to build your database and get to it!
