When you started email marketing, did you put your home address on the email? Mailchimp says I need to include my address to comply with anti SPAM laws. Do I need to get a PO B

Aweber said the same thing to me this weekend. Now I will go get a po box.
Thanks for posting this
Jim

Thanks Jim. Good luck on your email marketing.

thanks, just a few on their for now, but it will grow in time :)

thanks for sharing this post you provided a good question and the answers provided by the WA community were good to learn

No problem. Glad to help.

I was advised to use a PO Box if I didn't want people to know m home address.

Thank you I think that is why I will do as well

Either way but preferably home address

I feel uncomfortable sharing my home address. I think I will get a PO box. Thanks for your reply.

As long you felt comfortable that go ahead.
Best wishes.

Hi all, I have been atWA for more than a month. I have 10 indexed posts on my niche website and my pageviews are only about 200 a month butclimbing. I got contacted last Frid

Hey Maria,
Newmarket pro has your answer so I would check with him.

Tried and True

Elaine

We would suggest you focus on writing more content and getting more traffic to your site, first. As newmarketpro mentions below, you can keep their contact information for future usage.
Colette and Philip

Thank you

200 per month pageviewa is not too shabby. If I were you, I would inform them your situation but I would keep the contact. If the pay is good, you can revert to them when you are ready.

Joe

Thanks Joe. I dod talk to them and the agent I tslked to was looking st my site and said it looks good. She said most of their publishers have < 10k viewership. Told her I am way below that and will contact her later.

thanks for sharing this post

I think you are right. I also find that these types of companies put up ads that actually hurt you site, because they have nothing to do with your topic and are confusing to your readers. Skp!

Thanks for the input.

Only a suggestion yes I would wait until you have more content and your traffic picks up.

Thanks. Will keep chugging on. I did sched a call with them just to see what it is about for future ref.

Probably yes Maria ...

I thought so too. Thanks!

You're welcome Maria!

Do you create separate accounts for each business? I have a linkedin account but it is for my IT career so I do not want to put my website there.

it depends very much on the niche. If it is a visual leash niche like soft furnishings then definitely Pinterest. If you have a career in IT it may be worthwhile making an article about wealthy affiliates to say that is where you learn

thanks. that is one idea. and I do like the visua/non-visual suggestion.

if it doesn't work visually it's not gonna work particularly well on Pinterest. That doesn't mean it's not going to work at all it does mean visuals are easier to market on a visual platform.

I wouldn't use Pinterest as an IT platform though some people do LinkedIn is my go to source

Hi Maria,

I am an IT Security Professional, so we have a little something in common.
I found a good breakdown from Forbes that may give you some tips.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/kateharrison/2018/07/06/top-social-media-tips-for-every-platform-part-2-youtube-linkedin-snapchat-and-pinterest/#2e10cfef4ff4

I understand your LinkedIn dilemma, but I think the thought is it will show more diversity from you professionally?
I hope this helps.
My Best,

Gary

thanks Gary I will give it some thought. And hello to another IT colleague!

Maria,
I wish I could be of more assistance, but I have not done anything with either Pinterest or LinkedIn myself.
I am better with Google SEO and other more technical stuff.

I will be reading into that post I shared with you myself though.

Nice to meet a fellow "Geek"!
All my best,
Gary
