How Does Free Safelist Advertising Work

Let's start off with what a safelist is. A safelist is a membership site where members can email their opportunities and offers to the members of the safelist. Everyone must opt in by verifiying their list address and contact address. This is called double optin and it is very important because it protects the safelist owner from spam complaints, hence the name "safe" list. Everyone knows when they signup to a safelist that they will be receiving a lot of email from the other members. Members must provide a list address where they will receive email from other members, and a contact email address, where they will receive admin emails and paid solo ads from other members. It is best to get 2 brand new email accounts from GMail and use them strictly for safelist use.

In each email sent out by the safelist there is a credit link. Members must click on the credit link to receive credits. Usually they must view the advertised site for 10 seconds to get their credits. When members earn enough credits they can then use those credits to send their own email to the list. The whole system works by members viewing each others emails and building up credits. That's why they are commondly referred to as credit safelists or credit based safelists. Free safelist advertising is very popular with internet marketers because most safelists have a free safelist membership option which allows you to advertise your opportunity or service for free. All you do is earn enough safelist credits and you can send out your ad in the credit mailer. If you don't have time to earn credits you can purchase safelist credits or upgrade your membership.

Of course there are paid membership options available for those who want to send their ad to the safelist more often, and for those who want to earn more credits for clicking on credit links. Paid safelist membership options also give members a certain amount of free credits every month. Safelist advertising can be very effective those promoting business opportunites or services and are used often in the booming work from home industry.
