Hey Warriors,

I've been using Business World List for about a year or two now for getting leads. I found it was one of the more effective safelists around. Was just wanting to visit the site, and it now appears to go to a parked page.

Anyone has any inside info on what happened?

    Fabian...how can I put this?

    Do you know how to say R.I.P.?

    Many safelists are closing because there isn't much profit in them with
    most members going the free versus paid member route.

    Wow - damn new owner didn't renew the domain!!

    Make sure you cancel your recurring, if there's still a way.

    That site was one of the more effective safelists out there
    and has been for years. I started using it back in 2005.

    It's a shame that everyone that was using it cannot any longer
    because of an expired domain.

    Yep, looks like the domain owner didn't renew the domain. The question is, was it an oversight or intentional? Time will tell.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    I hope it was just an oversight. I've been using them for years with very good results. Seems like they would have a lot of paying members...I believe free members could email something like 200 people every other day while paid members could email over 90,000. Definitely worth the upgrade.

    I guess we'll see what happens.

      So now we are forced to play the waiting game!

      Well, atleast I can excercise my patience, if I have to look for a bright side!:p

    I never paid to be on the list. But the guy who owns this list is sitting on a goldmine. As you said the list has been around forever. He probably has the best double-opt in list on the planet. He could monetize this list like gang busters How many entrepreneurs, online business owners are on this list. WOW!

    Luckily he doesn't run it like a lot of safelist owners. The only offers you get are the ones from the owner - now that a real cruel way to monetize but it probably brings in a lot of sign-ups and cash. Hopefully, this is just a glitch. If it comes back I will pay tobe on the list just for old times sake.
