The Best Safelists for November 2011

Author: Jerry Iannucci

Hello and welcome to November!

It’s a new month and that means it’s time to dig out my safelist and viral list builder advertising stats from last months and share with you what sites are currently bringing me the best results.

But first… the news!

The biggest launch from last month was the new release of a unique viral list builder from my good friend John Bell.  It’s called Viral List Builder Plus.  I don’t have any stats to share yet but so far I am really enjoying this site.  One of the unique features displays the open rate of all emails sent through the site.  Members are receiving between 17% and 20% open rate for all emails sent through the system.  Not bad.  I will definitely keep working this one and share my stats with you next month.

Now for the stats.

If you’ve never been here before this is how it works.  Every month I promote a series of lead capture pages for my ebook Safelist Marketing Tactics on 30-40 different safelists and viral list builders.  I try to view as many emails from other members as I can to earn enough credits to send my emails as often as possible.  I use a free link tracker to find out how my hits my pages received from each site as well as how many new subscribers I received.  I do have upgraded memberships at most of these sites which usually allows me to send my ads more often.  My ads are also very targeted to other safelist and viral list builder members which help to increase my results.  Your results my vary.


Hits Unique Signups Ratio
List Bonus 1355 82.00% 19 1.40%
The Lead Magnet 1174 61.00% 17 1.49%
State of the Art Mailer 4130 77.00% 14 0.39%
List Adventure 912 60.00% 12 1.32%
Adchiever 1704 69.00% 11 0.65%
Viral URL 34 81.00% 10 29.41%
AdsolutionLine 2734 42.00% 9 0.33%
Elite Safelist 2612 38.00% 9 0.34%
Ultimate Profit List 1048 73.00% 9 0.86%
Instant List Empire 340 66.00% 8 2.35%
List Joe 1576 75.00% 8 0.51%
Quick List Profits 505 64.00% 8 1.58%
List Effects 355 61.00% 7 1.97%
Adtactics 1788 40.00% 6 0.34%
Global Safelist 1411 38.00% 5 0.35%

Not a bad month.  The top 3 sites continue to dominate as they have for the past few months.  I love seeing List Adventure in the Top 5.  So many VLBs have come and gone over the last year that it’s great to see this site still competing so well.  If you are not yet a member of any of these I highly recommend joining now.

That’s it for this month.  I will be keeping a close eye on Viral List Builder Plus over the next few weeks and hopefully have some good stats to share with you next month.

Keep in mind that these stats are the result of my own marketing efforts and may not match your own.  These are only provided as a guide to show you what is currently working best for me.  What works best for you might be something entirely different but you will never know unless you are tracking your ads.  You can get the same free link tracker that I use when you join TE Toolbox.

    Hi Jerry

    Question for you, I know that I always see your headline has remained the same for a long time. Have you considered using different headlines and testing them out to improve your numbers?

    Yes! I tested at least a dozen different headlines along with different variations of the one I am currently using. This one tested the best. I should probably do a new round of tests to see if people are more receptive to something new but I am considering promoting something different soon…

    Yeah The Top 3 Rules The Viral List Builder world and have so the whole year…

    This shows that there are more behind the scenes that have to take place then just buy a script, hire a designer, use some old sample copy that comes with the script and think it going to sell and convert like crazy month after month… Year after year…

    There is a lot of work Involved in the results you see here on Jerry’s Blog.

    And if (should not be IF… WHEN) you track your own results, use this list above. T Hooplas ranking, then you have a pretty good overview of what’s working and what is not…

    Sometimes it’s the program. The Owner do not grow the List. Many times it’s your landing page and you go to cheap and you are not consistent. Upgrading in the Top List Builders is The Key and don’t miss any mailings ever… work your schedule as you are a machine… Track your different headlines, mailings, landing pages and do the necessary changes and I promise you’ll have success 2012 if not already Dec 2011…

    Best Regards

    There were more than a few viral list builders launched over the last year which used the same engine as The Lead Magnet. However, I don’t think I have ever seen a program owner do more to bring in new members to view my pages as Stefan has done. A day doesn’t go by that I don’t see at least one of Stefan’s ads promoting The Lead Magnet. For that reason alone I think is why The Lead Magnet is consistently one of the best places to advertise.
