A mailing list is a collection of names and addresses used by an individual or an organization to send material to multiple recipients. The term is often extended to include the people subscribed to such a list, so the group of subscribers is referred to as "the mailing list", or simply "the list".

Types of mailing lists

At least two types of mailing lists can be defined: an announcement list is closer to the original sense, where a "mailing list" of people was used as a recipient for newsletters, periodicals or advertising. Traditionally this was done through the postal system, but with the rise of email, the electronic mailing list became popular. The second type allows members to post their own items which are broadcast to all of the other mailing list members. This second category is usually known as a discussion list.

I am looking to buy mailing lists of people interested in operating a multilevel networking business from home?
Q. The problem I am having is that I need lists of people who are interested in the area of health and wellness. Are there specific lists out there targeting this group of people? Are these lists expensive?
Asked by Linda - Sat Nov 14 17:51:06 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You may have intention to use the list to promote your product relative to health and wellness but this technique is not advisable to do. You can get as much list as you want but there is no guarantee that the list you could have bought from someone is the same list of people who are really interested in health and wellness. It is best that you develop your own list. Use web forms. I suggest you consider using auto-responders. It can help you with targeted list all opted in because they are really interested with your products. However, building your list will take time. But still this is the best move. Good luck to you.
