@Nicole: I'm not an expert on purchasing email lists. And while there are certainly reputable email list providers out there, you will want to be absolutely certain that you are dealing with one of them. For now I would encourage you to focus on building your own email list. I'd much rather see you create and use a highly targeted list of 300 or 400 subscribers than blast an email out to thousands of people.

Hi Edward, me again. LOL I will keep asking questions until you tell me to stop. I’m in the thick of things, now, so lots coming up. I launched my services today! Woohoo!

I am anxiously looking forward to your next post in the series. The topic of e-mail marketing has come up. I have been advised not to do it because if people don’t know your name/brand they will mark you as spam and then you’re on “lists” and it can be very detrimental. A contact I have trying to get me to buy his services for an e-mail campaign states this:

“We are all 100% can-spam compliant. Our list are all double opt-in. They will be getting the message from our servers with permission from them. They will not know you, that is correct. That is why we send the mailing multiple time to brand the new site.”

So, what are your thoughts about e-mail campaigns as it pertains to this series you’re writing? Obviously the e-mail campaign guy has interest in selling their service and I can’t imagine they wouldn’t want repeat business and if they get me on “lists”, there goes the business, right? Hmmm…

Hi again, Edward! Thank you once again for some useful information. I started AdWords about 5 days ago and already see what you’re talking about. I wanted to just test the waters, but already see how my money is probably just being thrown away. I only tested with $3 / day and it only results in about 7 or 8 clicks and most of those average 0 seconds on the site. I’m guessing either people trying to just game the system, perhaps, or some sort of bot. How can a human being stay less than 1 second? Seems fishy. Anyway, I do see what you’re talking about.

I do wonder if sponsored links might be a bit better for $100 / month. You get all the clicks you can get, there. Do you have any comments about that?
