FFA Sites - Are You Spamming?
by Joe Reinbold
One of our subscribers sent me a question the other
day
asking whether using FFA sites would be considered
spamming.
I thought this would be a good topic.
First of all FFA stands for "Free For All" links.
These
are sites on the Net, and there are thousands of them,
where you can post the URL (web address) and title of
the
page you might be promoting. These are automatic sites
that accept your posting and send you an automatic
email
thank you. Your link moves down the link page as new
ones
are added. And ultimately it will be automatically
removed.
Some of these pages have a limit of 50 links per
category,
for example, and your link may only be on the page for
only minutes depending on the activity of the page.
If you are posting to FFA sites, there is no spamming
involved as you are posting to a site that is there
for
that purpose, to post. By posting at the site you are
agreeing to receive email from the site owner. There
are
usually terms listed at these sites so make sure you
read
them.
If you have submission software or use free or fee
based
services to submit your posting it will most likely go
out
to thousands of sites. As a result you will probably
receive
100's of automatic emails thanking you for your post
and
each will include advertisements from the site owner.
That
is why you might want to use an email address other
than
your primary one (your personal or business address).
Most
people use one of the free email address services for
this
purpose. You just have to make sure that you empty out
the
mail box often so it doesn't get completely filled and
emails start bouncing or the service cuts you off
because
you are getting too many. I have received emails from
postings I had done months ago.
The other situation is where you have your own FFA
site and
allow others to post their link. Most people that have
an
FFA site have it so that they can set up the
autoresponder
that sends the thank you out and they include all of
their
programs or ads in it. I do not consider this spam
since the
people that are posting are for the most part fully
aware
that they will be getting these automatic responses
from
their postings. Some people post to thousands of these
sites
at a time using submission software.
If you have or are thinking about having your own FFA
site
I always suggest that when you prepare the thank you
autoresponder message, start it out with a statement
like -
thank you for posting at our FFA site at "whatever
name"
http://www.whatevername.com please feel free to stop
back
again. This reminds the person of where the email came
from.
At one time I hosted my own FFA site but it became too
much
of a problem with bounced mails. I found that a lot of
people that use submission software used false or old
expired
email addresses when posting. It was sometimes as high
as 40%
so all these bouncing mails were coming back to my
domain and
I had to set up filters to handle them. After a while
it got
to be too much of a hassle so I took it down.
The bottom line is that I don't believe either use is
spamming. Are the use of FFA Sites effective? Some
people say
they are some say not. Personally I would rather
advertise in
ezines where I get good responses and the cost is
relatively
inexpensive. You can obtain FFA sites to use at your
own site
without actually hosting it and having the headaches.
There
are free services that make them available and all you
do
is put a link on your site. If you would like to place
a link
on some FFA sites or classified ad sites, visit:

So remember when you get a bunch of emails, before you
yell
at someone for spamming you, if you just posted some
links at
a FFA site, you may have resulted from your own
actions.
