The article "Spam! What's the Real Problem" is about email marketing, it has been released by Dean Walden.
Most human being at this moment know the official definition of spam- Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE for short).That definition does several things we should look at.It categorizes spam as commercialIt limits it to emailCalling anything unsolicited creates vaguenessEven though all the above things may be true, there is several more things about spam that seem far more annoying.First: Spam doesn't have to be commercial to be a nuisance.Second: Unsolicited commercialism is so widespread that you can't avoid it by just changing websites.Third: A lot of human being give out their email address one day and don't understand why they get email the next day from that website.Also what if Bill Gates decided to give $10,000 to the next 20 human being who opened an email from him. That would be unsolicited, but who would care. (what if your spam filter tossed it out).On the other hand there is human being who will claim to be giving away mnoey when they only want your bank account #. Don't give it to them.Even if all the above were acceptable, what is it abuot spam that really, really gets your dander up? Isn't it the untruth. Isn't it the out and out deception involved?
If all email were limited to truthful advertising and genuine value, wouldn't that be the solution?Think about it, only offers of genuine value and truthful claims come to your inbox.
Then we'd all have to make choices that (whichever choice you made) moved us forward.Of course, there is a few things we should do to protect ourselves from issues.Don't open unexpected attachmentsdon't sign up for every get rich quick scheme you seeremember that many, many online entrepreneurs will take your moeny and run.MLM (Muti-Level Marketing) stands for Millions Lost to ManagementThere probably isn't an absolute solution to spam. What is spam to one person is a god send to the next. Perhaps a national preference list would be better than a no-send list.The one thing that will never change is human nature. If there is a real solution to spam it's probalby learning to deal with it defensively.
It's more than a little bit like drviing a automobile.
You can't really control the other drivers you must do what you can and that maens operating your vehicle (whether it be a car, website, or business) in a safe, responsible manner.Copyright 2004 Dean WaldenAbout The AuthorDean Walden operates numerous websites including: hotjobsandcareers.Com, webgoat.Com, bestsalescar.Com and picturesvoting.ComI'm an World Wide Web veteran for 1994 with skills in programming, css, html, java and publish love poems to 1500 subscribers.
