The BLACKOUT Report
My BLACKOUT report is now ready.
If you want to see how your profits can be cut in half, even whey you are playing by the rules, then you need to download this report now:

The report tells the story of how you can inadvertantly trip Internet wide CONTENT filters for a domain… without ever sending a single email from that domain.
The report also gives very simple to follow steps you can take to avoid similar problems. Here is the link again:

I follow email deliverability and I have not heard of this kind of blacklisting before. After looking around it does seem that there is some blacklisting for new domains.
I also found this checker:
http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi
However productlaunchformula.com is not listed.
Can you give us some more information on this domain level blacklisting? How do you know it was the cause? Which blacklists were blocking the mail? Were you able to get unblacklisted?
Why are these domain blacklists not listed on DNSstuff.com yet?
This is a very interesting situation, any further info you can provide would be great.

Jeff,
Glad to hear you’ll be back up and running on Monday. I got my course this week - I was on the phone with Tony Blake and he was telling me how GOOD the course is, and right at that moment my doorbell rang. UPS with my copy of PLF.
Now, I know Tony is the “Marketing Mindreader”…but that was SPOOKY.
Anyhow, I have gone through the first workbook, the DVD, and the first few CD-ROMS. All I can say is… how about you just scrap the re-launch? The few people that know this stuff, the better…

Hey Jeff,
Just read your blackout report.
Man that is a horrible thing to happen for sure. But the fact you are willing to write a full pdf report on how you can avoid it,yet again shows the true integrity of your character.
By the way got my copy of PLF - damn well awesome.
I intend to use several of the tactics in my new project very soon.
Cheers!

Just an additional note to anyone wondering about the blacklisting like I was.. I talked with an expert friend who runs very large lists and he confirmed it. My friend said at the end of the day, all you can do is cloak your links.
Here’s a php script to cloak them:
Just save that as a .php file on your server, and put the affiliate link in there. For example if your domain is mydomain.com, and you’re promoting something at promo-domain.com, you will create links like mydomain.com/link1.php, which will auto-forward over to your affiliate link at promo-domain.com.
Sorry you had to find this out for us the hard way Jeff, but thanks for sharing, this is a very valuable lesson.

Jeff,
Thanks for sharing…
Another thing that’ll shut ya down (as you know) is the whole merchant account thing. It’s one reason I’m looking forward to getting my hands on your “formula” program.
Ordering soon…
