Recently, I saw a post on a forum and I was surprised. I guess I should have known better but the post was dealing with something that I thought was a part of the process.
And that was Free E-mail Addresses for disposal purposes. It was definitely a trick worth remembering!
You must understand. One of the biggest caveats to the Internet Marketing business is the fact that almost everyone is trying to acquire your email address.
So when I first started researching this stuff, I would come across a site that truly drew me into their message or sales pitch; next thing I know I have given my address out to a boat load of sites. And now I am getting an even bigger boat load of SPAM.
Well, I do not mean to say that all of these site are spammer. But there are a couple that make life difficult for the rest of us.
So for a newbie, how should free e-mail addresses be used and in what circumstances?
If you are genuinely interested in a product then you need to use an address just in case a confirmation email is sent. Many times, an IMer will have a deeper website but they want to ensure that you are a real person before granting access to the site or more prized information.
One of the sites that I like visiting always asks for an email address. So I would use my same old address and then I am getting quite a few emails from this site.
Well, for a case like that. I needed to use a free e-mail address that I knew I would never use again and it had to be disposable.
Well, there are many such sites out there and to be honest they all work the same. But the one that I use all of the time now is mailcrap (dot) com. All I do is type out some random characters add the @ sign and then the domain name mailcrap (dot) com.
The name alone is easy to remember. There were some others but I could not remember their names and some had long names. As short as my memory is I opted for the easy to remember name.
So now, when I need a 100 percent disposable FREE E-MAIL ADDRESS, I easily recall MailCrap. Now I get into that site really fast now.
