About Lists
How updated are the lists ?
All our lists are updated on a weekly basis. New and fresh emails are added and old and invalid emails removed every Sunday.
Do I need any additional utilities or software's to use the lists ?
Yes, there are a few utilities that must be installed before using the lists. One of them is compression utility Winrar, it can be downloaded for free from http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar380.exe, you may also need a download manger to download the files http://dl.filekicker.com/send/file/167647-EPZB/mdsetup.exe (not required, but it helps if the files that you are downloading are big)
How effective is email marketing ?
Targeted opt-in emailing is the most cost effective way to advertise your business. You can expect anywhere from 2% to 3% response rate. This rate is considered very high.
Some of our clients have had response rate as high as 5-6%. The response rate also depends on the kind of product or service you are selling.
How are your leads gathered ?
To put together and update our email database we have partnered with opt-in email providers, such as: online shopping malls and eCommerce stores, internet service providers, information sites, social and political survey sites and many other frequently visited websites. They collect lots of information from their customers, including: email address, geographic location, profession, hobbies, areas of interest, etc. Our providers are able to share that type of information with all their business partners only with the expressed consent of their customers.
We also have several partners who run regular surveys.
What is the format of the list ?
All lists are saved in plain text format (.txt) with one e-mail per line which makes them suitable for any software. Leads are in Excel (.xls) format.
This is the standard format used by all bulk mailing softwares and utilities.
Is anything done to your lists to reduce the amount of complaints I may get?
Yes. We have managed to compile a database of millions of email addresses of complainers, anti-spammers and people who just do not respond well to email advertising. Before we release any list it is first filtered through this huge database to eliminate these people. This will greatly reduce the amount of complaints you may receive and at the same time increases your positive response ratio. This is an extremely important feature.
What is the difference between the Lists and Leads ?
The email list contains just the email addresses, no other information is provided with the package.
Leads have full details available viz First Name, Last Name, Address, Zip, City, State, Country, Date and Time Stamp.
Do you sell the same list to other clients ?
All our lists are non exclusive, meaning we do sell the lists to other clients. However, since the lists are updated on a regular basis, two clients normally get different lists.
Exclusive lists would cost your thousands of dollars, we can arrange exclusive leads for you, just contact us on http://www.massoptins.com/helpdesk.html with your requirements and we will get back to you with a quote.
What rate of deliverability can we expect ?
All our emails are guaranteed for upto 97% deliverability. If you still find bad or invalid emails then we will be happy to replace them with updated emails at no extra charge.
Who should use Bulk Email List?
Anyone who has a product or service that they are selling or marketing. Compared to any other type of advertising bulk email is by far the least expensive form of advertising.
What results can we expect ?
There is unlimited potential with bulk emails. A response of .001% from 30 million messages is still a huge number away from a miserably poor response. But imagine if you are holding a decent product that people may actually want in your hand. Sure, porn, quick loans, gambling and fast buck schemes are commonly pitched via bulk email but what about a real product?
Example Campaign :
You are selling a widget for $5.
You send a carefully written sales pitch to 30 million addresses. Now, let's assume that you only muster 1 sale out of every 1,000 people you sent that message to...a dismal failure by most business standards.
Well, that would still make you a gross revenue of $150,000.00
Do you offer refunds ?
All sales are Final. Due to the nature of the service we are providing, no refunds or exchanges will be offered once an order has been delivered.
How many people can I mail each day ?
There is virtually no limit with respect to the time you afford. You can set most software to send while you're away from the computer or asleep. Sending over 1 million people each day is quite simple.
What is SIC ?
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes are four digit numerical codes assigned by the U.S. government to business establishments to identify the primary business of the establishment. The classification was developed to facilitate the collection, presentation and analysis of data; and to promote uniformity and comparability in the presentation of statistical data collected by various agencies of the federal government, state agencies and private organizations. The classification covers all economic activities: agriculture, forestry, fishing, hunting and trapping; mining; construction; manufacturing; transportation; communications, electric, gas and sanitary services; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance; insurance and real estate; personal, business, professional, repair, recreation and other services; and public administration.
In 1987 the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) dramatically revised the SIC codes in accordance to the rapid changing economy.
In 1992, as a direct result of the 1991 International Conference on the Classification of Economic Activities, OMB established the Economic Classification Policy Committee to develop a new classification system. In 1997 it was announced that the new system NAICS (North American Industrial Classification) would strive for compatibility to include Canada and Mexico with a thorough evaluation of incompatible areas in all three systems. This will include all new and emerging industries, services, and advanced technologies. It has been decided that the system will go from a 4-digit (SIC) to a 6-digit (NAICS) system.
I need a sample, do you offer samples ?
Sorry, due to the fact that all our email lists and leads are optin in nature we do not offer any sample emails, free or trials.
What details are included in the leads ?
Our lead packages come with the following details:
First Name
Last Name
Address
City
State
Zip
Country
Email Address
Date
IP Stamp
I dont want the full list, can I buy in parts ?
If you do not want the full list then you can buy in parts. We do sell half of the list for half the amount.
E.g. if you want a list which is US$ 500 with 2 Million emails then you can just pay US$ 250 and get 1 Million emails.
Do you offer any discounts ?
No, we do not offer any discounts on our lists. It takes a lot of time, effort and money to manage the leads, so we are unable to offer any discounts.
However, if your order is of more than US$ 1500 we do offer a cash discount of 10 %
I need list from a particular country, can you arrange ?
We have lists from over 100 countries. Just visit our Helpdesk www.massoptins.com/helpdesk.html and let us know which 'Country' list you require.
We will get back to you immediately with the total number of emails that we have from that country and the cost of the list.

What is E-Gold, how can I open an E-gold Account ?
e-gold is an electronic currency, issued by e-gold Ltd., a Nevis corporation, 100% backed at all times by gold bullion in allocated storage.
Other e-metals are also issued: e-silver is 100% backed by silver, e-platinum is 100% backed by platinum, and e-palladium is 100% backed by palladium. However, the most popular e-metal (by an overwhelming margin) is e-gold.
e-gold is integrated into an account based payment system that empowers people to use gold as money. Specifically, the e-gold payment system enables people to Spend specified weights of gold to other e-gold accounts. Only the ownership changes - the gold in the treasury grade vault stays put.
You can open an account on E-Gold by visiting the link given below:
http://www.e-gold.com/e-gold.asp?cid=3843913
How do I buy e-gold? How do I sell e-gold ?
Unlike other popular Internet payment systems, you can't buy e-gold from (or sell e-gold to) e-gold Ltd in exchange for any national currency (USD, EUR, GBP, etc).
The e-gold system is designed to be absolutely free of any financial risk. There can be no debt or contingent liabilities associated with e-gold. For this reason, e-gold Ltd. does not possess any national currency of any nation and has no bank accounts. Thus, e-gold Ltd. is not able to offer currency exchange services. Instead, a growing number of independent exchange services around the world support exchange between national currencies and e-gold, accepting various remittance methods, including credit cards, bank wires, checks, money orders, and other online payment systems. You can find a list of some of these exchange services here.

PHP Mailer, cPanel Mailer & Software
Do you have "INBOX Mailer" or does the PHP Script sends email to INBOX ?
This is a misconception that the mailing software or the PHP script is responsible for delivery of the mails to INBOX, it has nothing to do with the software. The delivery of the mails depends on the message that you are sending. All email providers like (hotmail, yahoo, aol, gmail, etc.) scan the mail for particular words and phrases which they consider as Spam, if your mail have those words then chances are that your mail will be delivered to SPAM folder.
To avoid this, we would suggest that you first write the mail (do not use words such as FREE, OFFER, etc.) in your message. Then start by sending these emails to your own accounts on yahoo and hotmail. If it hits the Inbox then you are ready to proceed, if not then change the email content and try again. You should also change the Subject lines (most software's will allow you to rotate the subject lines after a certain number of mails have been sent)
Can you give more information on the PHP Mailer ?
Please visit the product information page on www.massoptins.com/massoptins_mailer.html , the cost is US$ 199 (Script Only, Free Updates for life). A web host is required to use this script.

What if the PHP mailer is shut down after a few days ?
This wont happen, but due to any reason if it does, then you will immediately be given a new link to start mailing.
Is PHP Mailer anonymous, will my IP show when I use it ?
Yes, the PHP mailer is totally anonymous. Your IP wont show up when you mail, instead the server IP will be displayed.

Miscellaneous
What is the CAN-SPAM Act, where can I get more information ?
The CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act) establishes requirements for those who send commercial email, spells out penalties for spammers and companies whose products are advertised in spam if they violate the law, and gives consumers the right to ask emailers to stop spamming them.
The law, which became effective January 1, 2004, covers email whose primary purpose is advertising or promoting a commercial product or service, including content on a Web site. A "transactional or relationship message" – email that facilitates an agreed-upon transaction or updates a customer in an existing business relationship – may not contain false or misleading routing information, but otherwise is exempt from most provisions of the CAN-SPAM Act.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is authorized to enforce the CAN-SPAM Act. CAN-SPAM also gives the Department of Justice (DOJ) the authority to enforce its criminal sanctions. Other federal and state agencies can enforce the law against organizations under their jurisdiction, and companies that provide Internet access may sue violators, as well.
What is Spam ?
Spamming is the abuse of electronic messaging systems to send unsolicited bulk messages, which are generally undesired. While the most widely recognized form of spam is email spam, the term is applied to similar abuses in other media: instant messaging spam, Usenet newsgroup spam, Web search engine spam, spam in blogs, mobile phone messaging spam, internet forum spam and junk fax transmissions. Spam is also called junk mail. Some email clients or servers have spam filters, which try to delete or move the spam messages.

How do I open a Zip file ?
After you have installed WinZip, you can open a Zip file by double clicking it in your e-mail attachment or Explorer window or by starting WinZip and choosing "Unzip or install from an existing Zip file" in the WinZip Wizard. (If the WinZip Wizard does not open by default when you start WinZip, just click the Wizard button in the toolbar). The WinZip Wizard will guide you through the process of unzipping your file.
Why do we Zip/Rar the files ?
Zip/Rar files compress data and therefore save time and space and make downloading software and transferring e-mail attachments faster. Typical uses for Zip/Rar files include:
*
Distributing files on the Internet: Only one download is required to obtain all related files, and file transfer is quicker because the archived files are compressed.
*
Sending a group of related files to an associate: When you distribute a collection of files as a single Zip file, you benefit from the file grouping as well as compression.
*
Saving disk space: If you have large files that are important but seldom used, such as large data files, simply compress the files into a Zip file and then unzip (or "extract") them only when needed.
What are Zip/Rar Files ?
Zip/Rar files are single files, sometimes called "archives", that contain one or more compressed files. Zip files make it easy to keep related files together and make transporting, e-mailing, downloading and storing data and software faster and more efficient. The Zip/Rar format is the most popular compression format used in the Windows environment, and WinZip is the most popular compression utility.
