Ezine Advertising Vs Feeder Sites
Advertising in newsletters can be a cost effective and very powerful method of spreading your affiliate links throughout the market very quickly.
When purchasing ezine (or newsletter) advertising, you always want to try to purchase "solo" ads, so that you are able to broadcast an article tied in with your affiliate link, without having to compete with other advertisers.
Here is a partial list of ezines that offer solo advertisement spacing:

When contacting newsletter owners to promote within their broadcasts, you want to find out how many subscribers they have, as well as how many times they'll run your ad.
You also want a good idea as to their overall open rate, and whether there are specific days where they've seen a higher response level.
To find more ezines to advertise in or to find ezines that are targeted towards non-IM niches, consider the following directories:

Feeder Sites
If you want to push your marketing message out to your niche market quickly, and absolutely free - you'll want to turn to feeder sites.
Feeder sites are free remotely hosted web services that allow you to create simple websites or web pages, such as Squidoo, available at www.Squidoo.com, who provides a free "hub building service" to anyone wishing to create a content rich web page.
Feeder sites are such a popular method of building targeted traffic campaigns because of how quickly they rank in the major search engines.
Since these websites are deemed "authority sites", they're already ranked high in engines like Google.com, and so by creating your sub-page on their server, your page will be discovered by search engine spiders, and ranked very quickly.
When creating your Squidoo lens, be sure to take advantage of the various modules that you can include on your page, and place a prominent link back to your main affiliate content page as well!
In addition, break up you content into short articles, and avoid linking to any related products until after the initial launch is over, since your focus is on funneling this traffic through your affiliate link to the products order page.
For each feeder site, upload 1-2 keyword rich articles and spice up your pages with images, videos and use built in modules or plugins whenever possible.
When you've finished creating your feeder pages, ping each URL to get the traffic pumping in. You can do this with either www.Pingomatic.com or www.PingGoat.com
