    Three simple words: Directory of Ezine. Search it on Google and you'll find it. It is very easy to find where to advertise for a cheap price their.

    I bought the directory of ezines and was not impressed. It's just a list of ezines which you can easily find on Google. It doesn't even tell you which ones are good.

    I find that "get the directory of ezines" has become a canned response for the question in the OP. It's the thing to say from people who probably haven't even bought it. Not to say that Benoit falls into that category and this all is just my opinion.

      Just letting you know I use it very often . Everybody tell you this because it saves time and they often slip an affiliate link, which I didn't.

    1) Don't buy advertising space in an ezine that has a different topic than the topic of the product/service you plan to promote even if someone (guru, upline or whoever it is) has recommended that ezine

    2) Don't advertise in ezines not published anymore listed by some ezine ad co-ops (one of the reasons for adding the no.3 below)

    3) Don't place any order before subscribing to the ezine and checking the quality of its content, its frequency, the frequency of the solo ads and more

    4) Affiliate marketing: don't use the ads from the affiliate members area unless you're very sure that you're promoting a brand new program. I'm sick of seeing the same ads weeks, months or even years after the program/book/service is launched especially when the ad starts like this: "Brand new X is taking the industry by storm"

    5) Don't try to fool the spam filters by misspelling the words (f.r.e.e, m0ney, etc). Don't advertise in ezines published by veterans living in a wrong past and still using the above style of writing.

    6) Don't advertise big before testing the elements of your ads (subject line, ad copy, etc) and of your landing page

    7) Don't advertise without tracking your results

    And so on

    Adrian
