DO you SPAM?
 

You know

Spam marketing in my opinion is called that because the selling style is about as subtle as being hit in the head with a CAN OF MEAT.

So don't be a meathead:

spam doesnt work

OK, you just go ahead and continue to believe that................................

Spam is hella annoying but it could be effective if done in the right way and place. Personally I don't relay on spamming to get a message across.

Spammers :321GFY

Spamming sucks.. Lot of work, verry annoying and less result!

"Spam is hella annoying but it could be effective if done in the right way"

what??

...He's kidding. Right?

It's crap like this that put me in a hospital bed a few years back

Frust

okay let's define spamming exactly... bombarding people with links via facebook, twitter etc that are not your friends and they're not following you is spam... actually even if they are it's still spam...
However to some extent, most webmasters spam... what about email blast, or piggy backing off of somebody's email? Or if a site allows you to input a web link in a comment box and you just make stupid comments to display your link lol... that's a form of spam is it not...
But in general, no I don't spam... Spam is very annoying...

nope., it needs lots of talent.

Anyone in this thread wanna buy some cock pills?

:(
 

Fuck no!

Nope, we dont and wont spam, sell your info, etc... We do everything to protect our customers data and prevent spam.

BUT honestly spam is effective to the spammer, i.e. ppc stuff. Not the end recipient. Do you think someone clicking on a link saying kittens, and going to a bondage site really going to sign up?

I don't spam but I wrote my own little program I call April for mass mailing yahoo groups with ads for my movies.

Why spam? Let bots spam for you, right?

so let me break this down

1. whitehat methods work, but the overhead is absolutely stupid dumb. However, its nice to have isps and datacenters backing you when push comes to shove. Keep in mind for a huge drop you need to have your mailbox, which tunnels through to a /27 or greater CIDR to keep those ips off the RBLs and your IP reputation in good standings with the big email companies.

2. blackhat mailing is a real bitch. Contact mailing, finding insecure tell a friend scripts, dealing with the big 3 of the webmail clients, accounts, proxies, filter evasion. the headache involved in doin the work is one thing. Coding the shit is a whole different beast in itself. talk about old shit gets old. I know a few people involved in this and they come and go as fast as the 24 year old virgin that got to fuck britney skye.(EDIT: get a 2 pump chumper from her, dont think he actually got to fuck her.)

See, the ideal mailing setup would involve a list that youve built over a lengthy period, demographically seperated(females from males, US from Foreign, age groups, etc) Targeted data, not General Internet.

If you have a 40 million email list of data that youve broken down, cleaned, deduped, cleaned again, removed hard/soft bounces/dead accounts/old accounts/tracked who opened and who didnt, you stand a good chance at making a decent living off it.

If youre a broke back mailing like 95% of the people in the mailing industry hitting general internet, youll fail and fail more times than the internet and your success will depend solely on your methods and how long they live.

tl;dr:

Is there money in spamming? fuck yes. If done right. Inbox is an art, it takes time, and knowledge. you dont just jump into it and get rich overnight. as is true with anything

I see new sites/webmasters spamming other sites to get people to notice their site, specially if they have adsense on it. Like previously mentioned in the end it ends up hurting you. People will think your site is mediocre because its webmasters engage in spamming. I think its best to be patient do seo for your site and the end you will see good results but you have to be patient!

Sure. Posting ads on classifieds sites is, too, good way of getting more traffic and links to your sites. What do you guys think about this?

I used to at the start, but now i stopped because i realized in the long run it could have a bad affect on you.

imo you must have good content for appropriate feedback

nope. But thinking to try one day. Heard successful stories from friends on the local mainstream market
