Secret Number 1:

"You’re wasting your time posting your ad to Free-For-All pages!"

When you post your ad to a Free-For-All site you get just ONE LINE (your headline, which becomes a hyperlink to your website) to describe your site. Now there are THREE problems with this:

• Your one line ad is mixed in with HUNDREDS of other ads!
  
  Oh, it would be great if YOURS was the ONLY ad posted to the site, but your ad is simply lost among dozens and dozens of other ads. Just who is going to take the time to look through all those other ads to find YOURS? But it doesn’t really matter how big your ad is, or how many other ads are on the page, because…
  
  
  
• ALMOST NOBODY GOES TO THE FFA SITES ANYWAY!
  
  Even if there were a way to make your ad stand out among all those others on the FFA page, it wouldn’t generate any more hits for you. Why?
  
  Virtually all of the ads posted on FFA sites are NOT manually submitted – in other words, internet marketers don’t go to the FFA page to personally post their ads (If they did, then there would be a SMALL chance that your ad would be seen). BUT!…most people anymore, in order to make the best use of their time, use SUBMISSION SOFTWARE to "blast" their ad to thousands of FFA pages simultaneously---without ever going to the FFA page, and most importantly---WITHOUT EVER HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY (HOWEVER SMALL) OF SEEING YOUR AD!!! And THAT takes us to Problem 3…
  
  
  
• YOUR AD MAY ONLY BE VISIBLE FOR A FEW HOURS!
  Obviously you want your ad posted to a popular FFA site. BUT!…the more popular the FFA site is, the more people post to it, AND THE FASTER YOUR AD "FALLS OFF" THE LIST as newer ads are posted! On some very popular FFA sites your ad may only remain on the list for a matter of MINUTES!

The bottom line is this:

"Even IF your ad were NOT among hundreds of other ads (which it is!), and even IF people actually WENT to the FFA site to post their ad (which they don’t!), your ad would STILL only be visible for a matter of minutes or hours!"

Now back in the "old days" of internet marketing, before automatic submission software and before there were thousands upon thousands of FFA sites, posting to FFA pages DID work. But things move F-A-S-T in the internet world! Today, posting to FFA pages simply gets you an e-mail box full of confirmation letters! (Are you nodding your head right now!?) And you’ve noticed, I’m sure, that each of these confirmation letters contains the sales message of "someone else."

That "someone else" is the person who HOSTS the FFA site.
