How to Select the Right Ezine for Your Ad Campaign

I still remember the jittery excitement of placing my first ezine ad. I imagined the riches I’d have if only 1% of the subscribers bought my product … that would be a profit of – gulp – over $1000! A few of these ads and I’d be able to retire in no time at all!

Since then, I’ve learned to ignore the hype surrounding “fast money” with ezine ads. Like everything else, ezine advertising is something you get better at with practice, experience and knowledge. Here are a few things to consider before you buy an ad …

Email Marketing: Spam Filter Triggers & Parrots

Many internet marketers know about the spam filters threat. However, it is really surprising to see that besides the less experienced marketers, even many people known as internet marketing experts don’t have a clue on how to deal with spam filter triggers properly. Today’s article tries to wake you up and take you from the amateurs crowd to the next level.

First of all, what are spam filter triggers? They are common words and expressions that are penalized by spam filters. When the penalty points assigned to a certain email message pass over a certain threshold, that message is usually routed to the intended recipient’s spam folder, rejected or even deleted at server level.

How to deal with such a problem?

Get ‘em Clicking with Good Ad Copy!

Never mind if you haven’t had good response from your ads in the past. That doesn’t matter. You can learn how to write an ad that will have people clicking their little fingers off! I’m going to teach you how to do that right now.

We all know how important the headline is. We also know it’s the hardest part of the ad to write. So we’re going to leave that until last. Know why? Because you can spend so much time creating the perfect headline that you never get to the ad itself. Besides that, if we leave it until last we’ll be writing a headline that goes with the ad, not an ad that goes with a headline.

Okay, so what’s our first step going to be then?

Ezine Advertising – The Fastest Way to Affiliate Profits

If you’re on a tight budget or want to get started quickly without a website or a list of your own, then ezine advertising should be your number one choice.

Ezine advertising is the perfect solution for beginners who want to test a market and get into profit fast. Here’s why:

• It’s highly targeted. People subscribe to ezines to receive information about specific topics. You just need to find ezines that cover topics related to the product your are promoting.
• It’s cost effective. You can find ezines that sell ads for as little as $8 – perfect for testing a new product idea.
• It’s a cheap way to test your ad copy. You can track several ads at the same time for next to nothing and find out which ad pulls the best.

The Most Effective Form of Free Ezine Advertising

Some ezine publishers offer free ezine ads to their subscribers. The bigger the readership of such ezine, the more ads – which means the less chances for your own ad to be noticed in a sea of advertisements. The smaller the readership, the less potential prospects for you. Conclusion? This model cannot be the most effective form of free ezine advertising … We have to find out something else …

The problem with the model I just described is that everyone can follow that path. Why? Because it’s free and you don’t need special skills or knowledge. Consequence? A fierce competition – your ad is competing with many other ads.

Prerequisite Steps for a Successful Ezine Advertising Campaign

Simplistically speaking, it’s easy to establish what the target of an ezine advertising campaign is: success. It’s understandable, no one plans to fail. But are you ready to succeed?

The first step is to get rid of illusions like ezine advertising is a 1-2-3 simple path: copy an ad, buy ad space in an ezine recommended by a person you didn’t know a few hours or days ago and then sit & wait for profits to come.

No, ten thousands times, no! Successful advertising is not something that is done “in the meantime” and it involves work.

An Overlooked Way of Improving Your Ezine Ads

When it comes to ezine ads, it’s easy to notice that almost all advertisers focus their attention exclusively on the text of the advertisement. It’s not bad at all to focus on the wording. Great headlines and calls to action are essential for the success of your ezine advertising campaign. However, is that all?

One of the major inconveniences that an advertiser faces when it comes to top sponsor ads or ezine classified ads is the very limited length of the ad copy. There are only a few lines (or a maximum number of words plus a link – it depends on publisher’s guidelines) where the advertiser is supposed to include a lot of things such as the headline, the benefits, the call to action & the link to advertiser’s web page.

I have good news for you: there is an overlooked way of extending the number of words or keywords used in your ezine ad, without breaking the publisher’s guidelines…

Ezine Advertising – The Truth About Responsive Lists

I have always wondered what some ezine advertisers understand by “responsive list“. A newsletter where any ezine ad written by any newbie who promotes any “business opportunity” will end up returning the expected result? Hmmm …

Some articles writers even teach their readers to ask the publishers whether their ezines are responsive or not. Why on earth would you like to ask an ezine publisher such a non-sense question?

12 Guaranteed Guru Secrets, For Better Ezine Ad Results

From buying expensive solo ads to placing free classifieds in ezines the past three years, you can be assured of my qualifications to write this article. I’m a Guru aren’t I? :-)

1. I place most ezine ads in an ezine that is not delivered regularly on schedule. People love surprises and it’s a real surprise if this ezine arrives on schedule. (I bet on a high number of subs, here)

2. I just love to put ezine ads in an ezine classified section, where it is competing with dozens of other ads. If I do get a clickthrough this means my dollar sign characters stood out above the rest.

3. I don’t bother to spell check my ad copy. That misspelled word is sure to get noticed, and that’s what it is all about, right?
