- Most Internet providers will cancel your account if you are caught sending out spam.
- People hate that. I personally would never ever ever buy any product advertised to me via e-mail. I think spamming should be illeagl and have a huge fine ($10,000 per e-mail sent).
- You likely cannot without your email being declared as spam with the consequences of being blacklisted which can then be very difficult to overcome if not next to impossible. Any ethical marketer knows that to legally send out bulk email you need to have a double opt-in system. Those people firstly must have requested info from you. Then you send out an email to verify that they did and provide a link in the email for them to click on to prove that they are open to receiving any further communication from you. Doing a bulk email and getting caught/charged by the spam police can lead to very serious and expensive consequences. If you do it ethically and are charged you have the verification email to prove that you received the email recipient's permission. I can show you a marketing company that also generates its own traffic and will cost you nothing until you are ready to use it's Veremail and autoresponder features to do what you wanting to do. My other suggestion is to participate in forums, authority sites, social bookmarking sites and advertise there. There are also some good free advertising sites. You are welcome to contact me for further information.
- www.icontact.com You can send bulk email and give people the option to opt out thus covering your back with spam. You can also view who has opened your email and view the various realtime data feed letting you know if someone has saved or opened your website (if you have one) It works very very well and is really cheap. I recommened it fully.
- No one is going to give you a list for free. If they did, you can bet that most of the people on it never opted-in. The best way to accomplish what you want to do is legally, using a reputable company. I know you wouldn't want to end up with a jail sentence and huge fine.
