Now that I am getting a LOT of traffic to my sites, especially my White Hat Sites, I need to be able to manage my e-mail opt in lists.

Right now I am just sorting the e-mails that have the info via formmail into folders but would like to manage them and be able to send messages to them. The program needs to be able to be used via opt-in form and then put in a database and have the capability to send out targeted e-mails to them.

Anyone found a good one that is not expensive and works well?

Hm, I'm still not very sure what kind of software you are looking exactly...

I think that I have finally found a good inexpensive email list management software for opt in list management that will create the html for the opt-in and also manage multiple lists.

Marten, could you clarify what you mean by getting traffic to your white hat sites, how do you integrate them with AMM? How does AMM work in getting traffic to white hat sites exactly?

I use this for over 8 years:

I promote ALL my White Hat Sites with AMM. I just remove the index.php file and put a link to the sitemap.html file on the front page to direct search engines to the sitemap file. That way it is invisible to most anyone that doesn't look at the sitemap file. I use cloaking to direct any good placement of the results.php file for any of the keywords that I have targeted. Works perfectly and it seems that if you have a regular website, it is much harder for them to remove you from their directory for spamming.

I assume that the white hat sites does not contain adsense ads? Affiliate program perhaps? I might have understood it wrong, but somewhere in google's policies it mentioned that cloaking to adsense sites is not permitted. I just worry about my adsense account getting closed, getting sites deindexed is one thing, but losing adsense is worse. But from some of your posts, it seems you're getting good traffic and if these AMM sites when redirected to your main WH sites, coupled with a good landing page, links to an affiliate program and good traffic one could make a good deal of money, is this what you're doing? And so far no sites have been deindexed yet?

No Adsense ads on these sites. I just use AMM and plugins for traffic generation. I do us cloaking to redirect results pages to my WH sites..

No WH sites deindexed - ever. Actually the site that I am so amazed by the traffic in 3 weeks is one that was set up strictly for Adsense. With the amount of traffic, I am tempted to sell a product related to the keyword. I think I could make MUCH more money that way.

Traffic increase in three weeks sounds great, on average how many visitors were there in a day? and I agree about selling a product of your own, adsense income can be limited. Any other promotion or tools you used for that AMM site that generated the traffic spike? Social bookmarker? Comment poster? Did you used all the extra plugins for AMM? I'm not sure what other adsense boy's tools I should get to increase traffic, any advice on this?

The site that I am mentioning is getting 468 hits as of yesterday. It started our slow and then strated climbing to over 250 by Monday of last week.

I am using all of the plugins, but for this site the Social Bookmarking Plugin is what is doing the job. I just started using Trackback, so I really don't know how it will work. Blog Poster was started using about 2 weeks ago and not sure about it yet either. Have been using YouTube for about 6 weeks and BCP for a long time. Both are slowly generating traffic.

I like to know for sure what is working so I have sites that have only one of the plugins on them plus AMM. That way, I can see exactly what is doing the job. Right now, Social Bookmarking is by far the best.

Hope this helps....
