Refrain from Buying Bulk Mails I am sure that you have definitely come across advertisements that read: "1,000,000 email addresses for $29.99". And these bulk mail companies can even offer you these names in a CD at your doorstep. Sure, having 1,000,000 subscribers is the best thing that could ever happen to any Internet Marketer and often sounds too good to be true. But very often, it always is too good to be true. What many beginning marketers do not really know is that these bulk companies harvest the email addresses using robots and other wares on the Internet. That is how the 1,000,000 email addresses come about. Email harvesters visit websites and harvest the email information and automatically add them to the list. Now, the awful part is that if you purchase the 1,000,000 names, even at a low price, and then try to use them, not only is it a waste of money, you are risking being accused of spamming. Remember, more often than not, no one has asked to be subscribed to the mailing list and many will be upset receiving unsolicited email. On top of that, not all email addresses will be real because a portion of them can either be owned by the same owners (one owner can own more than 1 email accounts) or they are simply obsolete. When you read such ads again, tell yourself that it is a waste of money.
