Credit Based List Builders continue to be the most effective form of advertising I’ve been using and have been directly responsible for growing my business over the past months.

Since I use multiple credit-based list builders for generating leads for my primary business, I’ve found the following tool a huge time-saver for managing all those different mailers and the marketing messages I send.  If you’re going to use multiple credit-based list builders, you’ve got to first get this tool and set up each of your mailers so you can manage, track, and partially automate your regular mailings.

Viral Mail Profits
I have used this system to manage all my credit based list builders and have been very happy with them since they added their own mailer. This is always the first thing I open when working mailers.  I can quickly scan the mailers I have loaded in the system to see which ones are ready to send mailings and with just a few mouse clicks I can copy/paste my ads in the mailers and track my results.

Following are some of the List Builders I use and recommend. All are FREE to join and use.

FREE Credits Included:

I recommend everyone begin using these two mailers because you are able to send your solo ad’s without having to click on other ads to generate mailing credits.

The List Auction
Free members can send 500 emails every 7 days or click for additional mailing credits. I generally click on enough ads to send an additional 1,500 every two weeks.

Viral Ad Store
Free members can send 500 emails every 7 days or click for additional mailing credits. I generally click on enough ads to send an additional 1,500 every two weeks. The relatively low click value (5 – 8 credits) for reading emails means it will take a bit longer to accumulate additional credits.

Surf for Credits or Purchase Credits:

The following credit based list builders are also very effective. However, you will have to invest a little time clicking on other ads sent to you in order to generate mailing credits. As a paid member, you will be able to send your ads using your upgraded credits, saving you allot of time.

Viral Mailer For You
This is an exciting mailer I’ve been using and getting awesome click through rates over 13%. Be sure to take advantage of the daily FAFY promo code available on the website for free credits to purchase solo ads and banner ads. I’ve upgraded to a Diamond membership and recommend you do the same.

• • Some benefits of a diamond membership is you will be able to add your site to a rotator that is heavily promoted by the owner.
  • Diamond members can send a credit email to up to 1650 members every 4 days. If you are active and earn activity points from logging in, referring new members, clicking on ads, etc., you can send a credit email every day.
  • When you upgrade, you will get up to 45 Solo Ads added to your account that you can use any time you are allowed to send a solo ad.
  • You also get this valuable bonus of 2 solo ads($30 Value) AND 2,000,000 credits ($40 Value) at FAFY every month that you remain a Diamond member.

 

Free Advertising for You
Another recent addition to my mailer tools that I’m really liking and it works great in conjunction with VMFY. This site is generating over a 9% CTR.

Easy Traffic Builder
I’ve been getting very good results (over 4% CTR) from this advertising source.  Watch for “special” advertising packages where you can buy LOTS of great advertising for a low cost.

List Surfing
I particularly like using List Surfing because you can get UNLIMITED traffic to your web site and at the same time it allows me to send email ads to it’s members. With the short 10 second timer spent viewing each page you surf, you can earn mailing credits  by spending a little over 30 minutes per day surfing.  The mailer has produced a respectable 4.5% CTR.

Viral Nugget
Viral Nugget continues to be a strong performer (over 4% CTR) and I have recently raised its recommendation. In fact, because I’ve been so impressed with the results after Viral Nugget released it’s newest version, I upgraded so that I can now send more emails, more often, without credits.

List Jumper
With it’s over 4% CTR, this mailer continues to be one of my favorites.

Adchiever
How about a Listbuilder that awards credits based on achievements? Earn credits for logging in, confirming your link, referring people, surfing, reading emails, everything! Another gem by Listbuilder Guru Darren Olander. I joined this credit based list builder as a Platinum member in order to email 1,500 random members every 3 days (no credits needed). Free members can email 1,200 members every day using credits.

BuildMyDownlines
You can e-mail random members with your advertising credits as well as e-mail your downline 5 levels deep without credits. Advertising credits are earned from the site by clicking on e-mail credit links or text ads within the site. I’ve been getting about 4.3% CTR. You can also purchase credits cheaply if you wish to advertise this way without earning them.

Additional List Builders to Consider

Although these List Builders do not make my top-10 list, they do still have some merit, in my opinion, and I continue to use them as secondary advertising sources. Before using these, you should have first mastered the above top 10.

Boxes of Traffic
Delivering Boxes of Quality Leads for Your Advertising Needs! I’ve been getting a respectable 2.88% CTR. It does take a bit of time to earn credits with this mailer as you’re earning only 10 credits per click.

Infinity Traffic Boost
While this credit mailer does take a little more effort to click and claim credits, it does produce a pretty good click CTR of over 3%.  Free members can mail to up to 1,000 members every three days. You can also earn crypto with this system.

My Traffic Network
This system as been producing a respectable 2.06% CTR.  I’m also liking the high 50 credits for clicking on emails.  This site does not provide the sort of credit based mailer common amongst the other mailers.  Instead, you use your credits to purchase solo ads.

FastListMailer
Get your FREE membership today. You can claim 1000 email credits inside. Just use the Action Code “WELCOMEVIP” and read 30 emails. That’s it!  This mailer has been producing about 2.3% CTR.

Email Hog
As a FREE Member you can mail to 700 members every 7 days. I’ve been getting better than a 2% CTR.

100PercentClicks
While the credit mailer here does not produce a very good CTR, when you use your credits to purchase solo ads, the CTR climbs to over 5%.  Here is a promo code you can use for some free advertising: newmember
You will get (1) 30-day banner & text ad + 1,000 mailing credits to email members.

It’s important to understand when using credit-based list builders as part of your email marketing strategy… it is a “numbers” game.  The CTR (Click Through Rate) and conversion rates are historically low for these kinds of mailers and you’ve got to mail tens of thousands or more daily.  Your task is to drive traffic to your opt-in pages and let the magic begin.  Sometimes your sales will happen shortly after optins, other times it may take a month or longer. 

Use the statistics available in Viral Mail Profits to test your click thru results for each mailer and prioritize your efforts. If you see one mailer outperforming the others, that may be one you want to invest a little money into and take more advantage of it’s benefits. I recommend you also want to track your sign up rate using tracking links to discover which mailer or email campaign is bringing you new partners.

 

Following are a couple of sites that offer free credits you can use for your list mailers:

Free Promo Codes for You
Everyone that joins can claim promo codes for solo ads, banner ads, text links, mailing credits and more at all of the top mailers.

Traffic Codex
Traffic Codex lets you search for promo codes just by entering a website URL, OR download our browser extension and it simply lights up when you are on a site that has an available code. Simple and Easy!

Low Priority List Builders

These following list builders have not performed as well lately but I still occasionally use them.  You’ll want to maximize your results with the previous list builders before spending time and effort with the following.

State of the Art Mailer
This older standby mailer has a pretty high 3.5% CTR and remains a credit mailer I use regularly.

Guaranteed Emails
As a free member you can get 60+ views using 3000 points and mail every 5 days. My results have shown about a 1.5% CTR.

European Safelist
You are able to send your ads once every three days. I’ve been getting a .14% CTR

YourEZList
This one was a favorite in earlier testing causing me to upgrade so that I could send more emails. More recent results have been deteriorating (.03% CTR) and this one has been slipping in my ratings.

AdsExplosives
While not producing the best CTR’s (.03%), this site does have some very affordable upgrade options providing sending your email ads multiple times per day and lot’s of banner exposures. I do seem to get better response from the banner ads compared to the credit mailer.

The Lead Magnet
You’ll find a credit link in every email from other members, although I get so few emails to generate credits it takes a while to accumulate credits. With your credits, you will be able to email 500 other members every 72 hours.  I’ve been getting about .72% CTR on my ads.

List Builders I’m Testing

I am always testing additional List Builder resources to either recommend or not recommend to my team. Here are a few I’m still testing:

Viral Traffic Games
As a credit based mailer, I’m still trying to wrap my head around how to best utilize this site.  While its CTR has exceeded 5.5%, generating credits to do your mailings has been pretty slow.

ExtraOrdinary Solos
Early testing has produced around 3.85% CTR.

ProAdvertisingClub
Another new mailer I’m testing that has produced 3.61% CTR.
Claim free promo credits here.

List Mailer Plus
Early testing is producing a respectable 2.5% CTR.

Mailer.Gold
So far my testing has yielded pretty low .50% CTR’s.  However, it’s pretty easy to generate enough credits to mail 1,000 members every week.

Sunbeam Traffic
This new mailer is adding lots of new members every day.  While its CTR is not necessarily stellar (.47%), you can email 1,000 members multiple times per day without clicking for credits.

HercuList
Herculist has been an internet marketing must since 2001. All new HercuList PLUS is enhanced with our theZONE surfing system. I don’t necessarily care for the complexity of navigating the site as you’re presented with what seems like endless popup ads.  If you can tolerate all that, you are able to send your email ads daily, and even hourly to thousands of members.

150Mailer
This is still new and I have not yet calculated its CTR.

Independence Mailer
This is another new mailer and I have not yet calculated its CTR.
