30,000 emails a month for only £69.95 !!!



Now you can send 5,000 emails a month for just £19.95 + VAT; or top up to 30,000 emails a month for only £69.95

In the olden days of the 80's and even early 90's we used to send out direct mail and 5000 A4 letters could cost you a couple of grand to send with letter, brouchure, envelope, paying staff to stuff, lick and post!!

Now one simple email can link to a website and we can be in front of thousands for very little.
I want to bring some of these great deals to your attention as we all expand our business in tough times.

As the old saying is never more true than today

"When the going gets tough ..... the tough gets going"

No fines for spammers?


Email marketing No fines for spammers? Think again Big headlines greeted announcements that from 6th April 2010 data privacy law breaches would attract exponentially higher fines. But will this apply to breaches of related laws controlling email, text and tele-marketing?

Different fines for spamming in Europe

Amsterdam, 10h of November 2009. If you are planning to send out spam from the EU, you best do it from Romania, Ireland or Latvia. With a maximum fine of only a few thousand Euros, they can make a fortune quickly!

Since the new spam law from the 1st of October, 2009 that was passed in the Netherlands, a new discussion arose.


Currently, within the EU, there are no equal laws concerning the fines for sending out spam. According to the Dutch email security firm SpamExperts from Amsterdam, there is a need for an international cooperation of all members states in the battle against spam.

“As long as recipients fall trap to scam attacks and phishing attempts, or continue to buy products advertized through spam, spam will prevail”, according to Sam Renkema, CEO of SpamExperts. “This does not imply however that regulation is entirely ineffective, but that a common approach is required to put an end to spamming practices.”

As a result of a recent study by the European Commission in Brussels, it became clear that there are no equal standards regarding the fines imposed for spamming. The Netherlands, for example, has a top position with a maximum fine of up to EUR 450.000. Romania, Ireland and Latvia only have moderate fines of up to a maximum of a few thousand Euros.

Regulations within the European Union will not solve the problem of spamming, as spam can be send out from any country. For example, one out of six spam mails originates from the United States. “It is like the cat and mouse game – when one location becomes too expensive for sending out spam, spammers will simply search for another country.”, says Mr. Renkema. “We do welcome the fact, however that the European Commission now is actually negotiating with the American authorities to agree on a joint action plan”. With the elimination of 2 large botnets in the United States, the global spam volume recently decreased to “only 76,8% “ for a short while.

Senders of unsolicited junk e-mails in Italy will now face jail sentences of up to three years, according to Italian media reports.

The country's privacy watchdog issued the ruling in an attempt to limit the huge amount of advertising and promotional material sent online.

Sending e-mails without the permission of the receiver is against the law in Italy.

Offenders now risk fines of up to 90,000 euros and between six months and three years in prison, if it is proved that they did it to make a profit.
