I've been doing this for a while let's and thought I'd mention 2 list building methods which I suggest you STAY AWAY from. You might get different opinions from other people, but as for me, I've used some of these techniques and burnt my fingers

The first method is buying optin leads. There are some services which will send you a list of subscribers along with their full names, I.P. addresses and date/time stamp. While having all of these as proof that someone opted into a list, it doesn't mean that they opted into your list. If you buy a list of these leads and email them and get a Spam complaint, which will surely happen, you can stay out of trouble because you have all the information as proof that they opted in but it's a continuous fight. Still, I wouldn't go this route. I once bought a list of 10,000 names and after trying to show them that I'm a nice guy and want to help them, I didn't get much of a response from the list. I gave them lots of free stuff but they weren't interested.

The second method is to use Pay per lead programs. These programs are a little better than the above method in that they list your optin form along many other forms, and people have to check your form and fill in their information to get placed directly on your list. Let's say you pay for 500 subscribers for $50 you pay that money first and then they will list your form on one of their partner sites until you get 500 subscribers or the number that you ordered. The better the description you create, the faster you will get to that number that you paid for. The bad thing about this form of optin, which I've also tried, is that people see a bunch of checkboxes, and they just click through each checkbox impulsively. That means that they'll be getting emails from many other people all at the same time, and then they end up getting overwhelmed and unsubscribe from all lists. Heck, I've done this myself.

Those are the two methods of list building which I've tried and will not try again because they produced poor results for me and will do the same for you. You might get different results, but if you don't want to risk being disappointed, rather try some more successful methods to do so.

Thre are a few questions in here I need answers to thanks
By: voterperson | 04-08-2008
QUESTION One: Would you care if your mother, sister, any family member did not like where you shop for clothes or criticized where you shopped for clothes? QUESTION TWO: Would you be wondering if they were laughing at you when you wear your clothes? Give details. QUESTION THREE: How would you handle it if someone did not like where you shop for clothes or criticized where you shopped for clothes? QUESTION FOUR: Do you agree with Roberta that it should not matter what other people think? GIVE DETAILS:   Here is why I asking. Tonight Stacy and her mom went to her sister?s, brother-in-law?s house (and two nephews) for dinner.   Roberta: ?Where did you buy that blouse. At the 99 cent store? Stacy: ?Yes? Stacy thought that was the end of the conversation. But right after Stacy cleaned up the dinner dishes (to help her sister) and came back out to the dining room the following conversation took place. Roberta: ?Why do you want to buy clothes at the 99 cent store. I mean you are not poor? This got Stacy mad and she lashed out at her sister and her mom. Roberta: ?I am not attacking you I am just curious.? Stacy: ?But I like the clothes there. I don?t get the crappy ones and I get a lot of compliments? Roberta: ?But you don?t know who wore them before - they are used. I can see buying jewelry there, paper towels, purses? Stacy: ?I don?t care if someone else wore them I like them. And the ones I buy you cannot tell that they were someone else?s. And I rather buy them there then go to a department store and spend $28? Mom: ?Stacy has tons of clothes from the 99 cent store? Roberta: ?Stop yelling. So you are saying you rather have quality then quantity? Stacy: ?I only get the quality? Stacy was getting madder by the minute Roberta: ?Stop yelling. I am not putting it down I am just curious. I was just asking. All you had to say was the following ?I like them and I prefer to shop at the 99 cent store? instead of going into major explanations?   Then they had a nice discussion. Roberta told Stacy that it really should not matter what other people think. That even though their mom and Roberta feel that they would never buy in the 99 cent store that doesn?t mean that Stacy should stop. And that even though Roberta does not like Macy?s there are people who shop in Macy?s that doesn?t meant these people are wrong for shopping at Macy?s. The same thing with the 99 cent store. That there are people who shop at the 99 cent store and like it. Roberta also said that if Stacy went to Sephora?s with Roberta and Roberta purchased a lot of lipstick Stacy would think that Roberta is crazy. But Roberta would not care because Roberta likes makeup. And also that their mom says plenty of things to Roberta but Roberta ignores their mom. because she does not care what the mom says.   Also Roberta told Stacy that Stacy always dresses nicely and Stacy likes clothes. When Stacy asked do you like this blouse. Her sister did say it was pretty but that is not the point, that Roberta is sure that Roberta has worn things that Stacy did not like, Stacy replied true" so it really is not important if Roberta likes it or not.   Stacy did tell her sister that her mom is a hypocrite because her mother accepted four blouses that Stacy purchased at the 99 cent store and her mom has come with her to the 99 cent store to look at the clothes. Her mother got defensive and said ?I only wore one of the blouses you purchased, it had a ticket on it, and I never purchased anything there?
