Adult Webmaster + Mail = SPAM.

Admit it. You're an adult webmaster and even you are guilty of automatically adding up this equation. It's not like it's that hard or unimaginable a sum. As a web pornographer, you probably receive more SPAM in your inbox than any non-pornographer you know. You set up the filters. You block the senders and still, the hits just keep on coming. It's gotten almost impossible to remember a time when email was new, exciting and wanted.

That's probably why you're a little more than hesitant to send email to your surfers, site members or fellow webmasters. It's just not fair.

"When users open email, they ACTUALLY READ IT. When a willing recipient opens an email, it's a beautiful thing for both you and them."

You're a good guy. You've been collecting email addresses legitimately for a long time. Or, you want to create a newsletter. You want send out regular mailings. Yet, you refrain from doing so because frankly, you don't know how to do it without getting in trouble. You still understand the value of this kind of communication. You've got clients to keep informed. You've got news to tell. You're a professional with professional needs and you deserve to realize those needs just like any other businessperson.

What's worse, there are laws out there that can send you to jail for SPAMMING. As an adult webmaster, you're especially paranoid. There are SPAM list servers that will add your site to their blacklists without so much as asking you first. One complaint from a user and boom. Suddenly, you're a SPAMMER.

You don't need this crap. You're no SPAMMER. You never sent a mass-email in your life. You're not sure how you got blacklisted in the first place. You're getting a bad rap because other webmasters that share your IP block screwed up and you've done nothing wrong. It's enough to turn you off email marketing and newsletters for life.

It's a damned shame too. Email is a great way to inform and promote products and services. Email is intimate. When users open email, they ACTUALLY READ IT. No banner blindness. No back-button exits. No freeloading waste of your precious bandwidth. When a willing recipient opens an email, it's a beautiful thing for both you and them.

As mentioned there are reasons to avoid the email end of promotion. However, there are so many good reasons to incorporate this form of communication into your Internet ventures. When you run a website, you want to make users aware of changes, new features and improvements. You want to reach out to customers on a more personal level. When things go wrong, you want to be able to let everyone that's affected know that you're on the job and working to remedy the situation.

You're a free site owner. You're a TGP webmaster. You're a paysite operator with members and affiliates. You're an adult host or content provider. You've got a right and a reason to send out email to large groups of recipients. You're not a goddamned SPAMMER and your business will suffer greatly if you don't find a safe, easy solution to your email dilemma. Also, you don't have a million dollars. You want to get on the email-marketing train with a small investment and as little fuss as possible.
