My Personal List of Safelists

We use everyone of these in house for email marketing. Many of them have free memberships to access thousands of email addresses without worrying about spam complaints. Great for affiliate offers.

What follows is my own personal list of traffic exchanges, otherwise known as safelists. If you haven't heard about safelists is likely because none of the fake marketing "gurus" like to ever talk about them. These are a way you can get access to send hundreds and thousands of emails without even having your own list and still stay compliant with the law. They are called safelists because they keep you safe from SPAM complaints. You can read more here on our article called "What is a Safelist?" The best way to monetize on safelists is to send daily or as frequently as the site will allow you to. And do not try to make direct sales out of the emails. It -can- work to a limited degree but you are much better off utilizing safelists to build your own list of subscribers which you can nurture with your own sequence allowing you to market to them as long as you wish or until they unsubscribe.

SOTAM or "State of the Art Mailer" does not look so state of the art at first glance, in face it looks like you went into a time machine back to the web in the 1990s. Brad Webb is the founder and operator of SOTAM and is super cool to work with. This site has been around for 15 years or so and has about 48,000 active members. The free version allows you to send up to 3000 emails every week to their highly responsive list. When you decide you want more, they have very affordable packages starting from 3000 emails every three days for $7 and change per month all the way to 30,000 emails every three days for $86 and change every month. Fractional compared what PPC is costing these days.

Mailer.Gold is an interesting one and a brilliant solution to a common pain point to new affiliate marketers. That is, a lot of people don't have the budget to "try out" paid services in the chance that it might work, so while you are welcome to use it for free, the paid version is cool because they literally charge one set price for a lifetime gold membership which allows you to send to all members every three days. The price will increase by 1 penny per member they currently have. In other words the lifetime gold membership will be $10 more for every 1,000 new members. Currently the price is 20.68 one time fee for a "Lifetime Gold membership. This is the plan we are on.

We have tested a couple dozen above and beyond the ones above but the ones above remain my most responsive. We send mail daily to all of them and have been one of the best investments in marketing I've ever made dollar for dollar.

That's all that we have tested and tried so far and proven results on. As I finish testing others and if I am satisfied with the results I get, I will share them here so please check back here or get ahold of me on social if you need any help.

I hope this section on safelists was helpful to you, and I want you to know that you can reach out to me any time on any of our social channels if you need help with anything at all or just have questions.

Cheers,
Kent

Adchiever has several plans. Just like the others it also has a free plan. Other plans include "Platinum", "Diamond", and "Elite." The free version allows you to email unlimited members every day using credits. The paid versions have different variations of perk increases based on which level is signed up with. At this time they do not have an option for a one-time lifetime membership so it is a monthly membership site.

Pangea Group is another one of my favorite go-tos and it is named after the supercontinent that existed during the late Paleozoic and early Mesozoic eras. It is a group of safelist websites owned by Maryanne Myers. She merged all of her sites together and formed Pangea. (127,000+ members and counting) What I love about Pangea is the fact that they have a pay one time option for a lifetime. They have $49 for 200,000 emails per month, $99 for 400,000 emails per month, and the top tier being $199 for 1,000,000 emails per month! That's 30,000 emails per day! Guess which one we're on?

100 Percent Clicks is a site owned by Frank Salinas. Frank has been in the safelist business for years and operates several high quality sites within his network. I started off with the free plan here that allows you to send 500 emails but after that you have to earn credits to continue. I quickly upgraded to the gold plan now which at the time of this writing is $97 and allows you to send 1000 emails every two days with no need to earn credits.

Mailsy is another site that's been around for quite a long time. While as far as I know they do not have any one time fee for a lifetime membership, their fees are extremely reasonable and they have both monthly and quarterly plans. On the quarterly plans you can save a substantial amount of money on. We currently are gold members and pay quarterly.
