Hello and welcome to all the readers.
Today in 'back to basics' we explore solo ads
what is a solo ad
A solo ad is a type of advertisement that you send using somebody else email list to promote your product/opportunity.
It is similar to pay-per-click advertising.
The owner of the email list will send the message on your behalf and you receive a highly targeted audience.
Solo ads can also be sent to the members within a program, like a list ads program.
You can exchange your credits earned by viewing solo or other types of ads on the program to buy a solo ads
This type of solo ads are not targeted to a specific niche.
Credit based emails are sent based on the credits to allocate.
While the solo ad goes to all the members on that list/program
Targeted niche solo ads are not cheap. They are basically sold in batches of 100 clicks or more. Targeted niche solo ads do guarantee a set of clicks for the price you pay.
what is a solo ad network.
A solo ad network is a list of programs who join together to send one solo ad across all the participating programs.
i.e. All the members of the participated programs will get the solo ad.
