Solo Ads are one of the best ways to advertise online. Your audience is always highly targeted and solo ads are typically inexpensive for what you get.
Below I have listed quite a few solo ad sources. They are not in any specific order. We would also encourage you to find some sources on your own. We don’t want to saturate any lists with the same ads too often. Some good search terms to use are Contact Solo Ads, Safelist Solo Ads, Ezine Solo Ads, or just Solo Ads. Check back here every now and then as this list will be updated.
Solo Ad Buying and Searching Tips:
- Avoid anything with “Blaster” in the name. Most of these are just a list of leads that are never cleaned and are therefore old.
- Look for a reference to Safelists or Ezine. If you don’t see anything like that it might be bogus.
- Some sources offer discounts for multiple solo ads. Never buy more than 3 at a time or it is overkill and only if you can submit 3 different ads and subject lines or at the very least if they let you submit different subject lines for each send.
- Always use a tracking link so you can verify the source is delivering traffic. If you get very few clicks then demand a refund. Some list owners will want to make sure you are satisfied and may offer you a resend instead.
- Some sources will specify on their advertising sales page that they limit the number of solo ads sent to their list. This is a good indication that the list is much more responsive.
- Most people are going to find the cheapest sources and only use them. If you are willing to spend a little more you give yourself a huge advantage over everyone else. You could be the only one sending that list emails about your primary business opportunity.

Hey Clay…thanks for the blog. I have been scouting around here and have picked up some great information. I have also been using solo ads with great success. However, I have found that in the internet marketing niche, one must ask the provider some relevant question prior to paying for the ad.
These questions include:
When was the last time you sent out an ad for ……company?
What are the demographics of your subscribers?
How big is your list?
Will you be sending to your buyers list as well?
Will there be any other ads going out at the same time as mine?
How many times a day do you send to your list?
These questions have enabled me to decide if that is the provider that I want to send my offer to. If I don’t like the answer, I just find someone else.
Thanks again for such an informative blog.

Karen, I’m happy that you are finding useful information on my blog. And you are absolutely correct. Asking the list owner specific questions like you have listed here can save you some headaches and some money. In my opinion the last question is the most important. If the list owner slams their list too often it will become unresponsive. Smart list owners limit the number of daily or weekly solo ads for that reason.
