That means that it gets more and more difficult to get people to sign up for free newsletters or e-courses. What this means to potential internet markets and bloggers? Your prospects might NOT get your newsletter although they signed up for it. And it means less sales affiliate marketers. And it’s getting worse by the day. Soon very few will sign up for anything and if they do sign up, odds are very soon less than 40% will get your messages due to Spam filters.
