Protecting Your Inbox

Marketing your new affiliate landing page can be a daunting task that requires special tools to make it as painless as possible. The number one marketing method I enjoy doing requires me to have a membership on multiple forums. Furthermore each membership will generally have a unique name and password, but with the same email address.

Keep in mind I'm not spamming, but honestly contributing to the forums growth, only utilizing my signature links within the forums TOS. To remain as anonymous as possible though, I don't like using my personal email account or an account associated with my affiliate site. Most public free email accounts are not allowed to sign up with forums, so using Hotmail, Yahoo, and similar accounts goes out the window. This has created a problem for my mass marketing endeavors and need to keep accounts separate and that's when I found HushMail.

HushMail.com is a trusted email service that provides free limited access to an email inbox. They do not offer HUGE storage or a lot of extra inbox options, but it does provide a spam free working environment for handling my multiple forum marketing identities. Plus HushMail uses several spam protectors for signing up as well, so it's a trusted email while signing up to forums.

Hushmail provides a high level of security combined with total ease of use. All you need is a computer with an Internet connection and a current Web browser. Just sign up for a free Hushmail address, create a passphrase, and login to your account to begin. You'll immediately be able to communicate securely with other Hush users, and you can access your Hushmail account from anywhere in the world.

Conclusion

If you are looking for an email service that you can take with you on any computer and have a trusted spam free email provider, then HushMail.com is the service for you. As long as you don't plan on archiving a ton of messages, you'll find their service top notch and rarely any spam makes it through. That's why I use HushMail as my #1 email service provider for managing my marketing campaigns.

Start Generating an Email List With Your WordPress Blog

WordPress is one of the greatest blogging platforms on the planet.(Yes I feel that way even though I use Blogger for this blog.) One of the best features of WordPress is it's use of Plugins or addons that allow you to modify and use the blogging software as you see fit. The latest gem I will be adding to my arsenal is a little plugin that helps you create a double opt-in email list.

WP Double Opt-In List Management is one of the strongest tools in any web marketers arsenal. Not because it creates something completely new and unheard of, but because it simplifies the process and streamlines it for consumption. Using software to build the list is the most difficult part, but this plugin automates the sending of confirmation emails so that you remain within the Can Spam act.

Not just a normal subscriber, but also list management, check out the features:

• users can subscribe to your mailing list from your blog;
• users can update their subscription details and unsubscribe;
• sends a subscription confirmation email to the user;
• sends a welcome email to each new subscriber (optional);
• sends an unsubscribe notification to the user (optional);
• saves the subscriber’s details to your internal WordPress database;
• you can customize the signup form as you like (add fields, remove fields, re-order fields);
• you can build own in-house permission based email list using a double opt-in subscription method;
• you can manage your opt-in mailing list inside WordPress (unsubscribe or delete users);
• you can export your mailing list from WordPress

The plugin is free to download and a breeze to install, but there is a lot of configuring to do once it's ready to roll. All the emails are configurable and can be tailored to the receiver with simple commands. After building your list your marketing campaign can be as simple or extravagant as you want and that's the beauty of the WP Double Opt-In List Management plugin.
