3. SAFELIST ADVERTISING MADE EASY
Before Using Safelists: A basic setup guide.
Safelists are a common starting place for people as they head out to make their early commissions,
and they have the advantage that they are also the place other ‘make money’ newbies can also be
found.
While they are not the most productive place to advertise, they do produce results for
12SecondCommute and have the additional advantage of being free to join. However, don’t start
using them until you set a few basic things in place as I will indicate below or you will will be
flooded with a gazillion return emails!
Setting Up Your Email Accounts
The basic principle behind safelists is that advertisers get together and agree to receive email ads
from each other. Therefore you can expect a lot of email especially when you start using a lot of
different lists. So under NO circumstance should you use your main email account when you sign up
for safelists.
I use and recommend Gmail (Google Mail) it’s the best solution for safelists and it is free. Don’t
bother using some of the other free email accounts such as Yahoo, AOL or Hotmail their spam
filters will only bring you headaches when using safelists (actually many safelist wont allow them).
Using Gmail is also the foundation for advanced tactics you can move on to later.
You will need two email accounts, one as your contact address and one where you will receive the
actual safelist emails. So create two Gmail accounts and name them something that you can easily
remember e.g. SafelistContact@gmail.com and SafelistEmails@gmail.com
Joining Your Safelists
Now that you have your email accounts set up it is time to start joining some safelists. There are
thousands of safelists on the market but 90% of them are utter rubbish. Until you have your own
testing and evaluation system in place I recommend that you focus solely on the safelists in Affiliate
Funnel It’s free to join and these safelists are proven performers and won’t waste your time.
Trust me – more is not merrier, you get far better results from consistently posting to the top 10
safelists in the Affiliate Funnel than you will from sporadic bursts to a a swarm of small lists, or any
of the other thousands out there.
When you join the safelists you will have to click a confirmation link, usually at both your contact
and list address. IMPORTANT: don’t delete the emails after you have clicked the link, we want to
keep them for the next step.
How to Set Up Your Gmail Labels
The labels and filtering options in Gmail are very useful when dealing with safelists. Now that you
have joined the safelists, you use the confirmation emails they send you to set up your labels. I will
use Adtactics as an example…
1. Open your Adtactics confirmation email in Gmail and click on “Show details” in the header.
2. Mark the from email address and press Ctrl + C to copy

4. 3. Click the “Create a filter” link next to the search boxes
4. Paste the email address (Ctrl + V) into the “From” field and press “Next step”.
5. Check the “Apply Label” box and choose “New Label” in the drop down menu.
6. Type in “Adtactics” as the name of the new label and press “Ok”.
7. Click on “Create filter”.
All email from Adtactics will now have this label applied and be filtered into your Adtactics folder.
Follow the steps above to set up labels for all the safelists both at your list and contact address. This
is a huge time saver in the long run and it will form the basis for some of the advanced tactics you
will want to move on to later.
