Unsubscribe from emails

Why do I unsubscribe from emails

As a wannabe or new  internet marketer you visit websites that

promise riches and quick money and the first thing you usually bump into is a squeeze page with on “opt in box”. (that’s where they ask you for your email address) (squeeze page is where there is no real information just a catchy phrase or two to entice you to give your email address in exchange for the information on the next page)

The opt in box serves only one purpose and that is to get your email address so you can get future emails from the owner of the website. Nothing is wrong with that, business is business.

Once you fill in the email info and press the submit button you most likely be directed to check your email and verify the information. This is for the email servers such as awaber or getresponse . They require every website owners that signed up with them to verify the intent to receive emails from that particular website. Also called “double opt in” because you request the info by submitting your email address to the website site and once again to the email server companies. Supposedly for controlling spam emails but business is business so we leave it at that.

Now once you do your double opt in you will be taken back to the original website you wanted to get the info from in the first palce. Here you will most likely find a looooooong sales page. They want you to buy whatever they are selling. Most people just clicks away as soon as they realize this, but some will read through and some might even buys. No real info given on this page at all.

From this moment on you are going to receive emails like it or not. If you want to get more info you opt in to other websites and get more emails. Some people gets hundreds of emails per day as the result. Most of these are truly junk and not worth to look at them. After a while you figure out which ones are the ones and just delete them as soon as you see the senders name.

The ones I delete first and also unsubscribe right away are the ones that mimics sites such as paypal or some other online banking sites and saying “you’ve got funds”, or “you got money”,  in the header. (Try this instead.)



As a frustrated internet marketer nothing is more irritating than getting a false statement as that. Makes you believe for a moment you’ve made a sale or someone had sent you money and when you open the email it turns out to be false . Your hopes are up and bammmm a failure notice when you open it. You have enough failure in IM and don’t need another one that hits you even harder. So those are a must unsubscribe!!!!

The other ones are the ones that sends nothing but opt in and sales pages. You ferret them out after a week or two and than unsubscribe from those too.

Some very minor percentage  (1 percent or so ) will send you good information and you keep those.

How to unsubscribe? Go to the bottom of the email and if they use one of the above mentioned email servers just click on the unsubscribe link. The ones that don’t use email servers but are using their own,  don’t unsubscribe because with that you just verify your email address is good and get even more junk.  Leave those alone and sooner or later they go out of business and disappear.

Of course you can learn from all of them to a certain degree. The style, the text they use, the pictures they are using, even the grammar and phrase techniques. Who knows, one day you might be doing the same thing.

The ones you want to keep are those very few that gives real info either on the opt in page or on the page after that and also in the emails. Those are the ones that’s worth reading. Make Money with these.



It takes some trial and error and a bunch of emails but as a beginner internet marketer with no money to spend, they’ll give you plenty of info in a few months time, you can use. Some will have no opt in at all, some will send you videos, software, PDF files, etc.
