Are the days of Yahoo Messenger Marketing Over?

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to know if anyone is still sending mass IMs on Yahoo/skype etc or are their days over?

If yes I would like to have a discussion on this as I have a product in this niche to be launched soon.

Mainly what products are you promoting -

In my tests I have found dating and freebie CPA offers to work good with a decent 20% conversions.

Any suggestions/similar experiences from experienced marketers who market on IM networks would be a great help for fellow marketers here.

It's become hard; a lot of people have in some way shape or form been told by (mostly media) that any links/etc. you get from an IM you don't know is a scammer...it's a shame really.

Still possible though.

Agree. Yahoo is dead as a doorknob. Skype was ok for a while. FB is the way to go IMO.

Are you guys talking about simple bots which send wild links to a list of yahoo accounts with links and some strange symbols. If yes , they are surely dead long back.

Iam talking about smart bots with Artificial Intelligence and Scripts which converse with a user like a real person and then send them offers. Have anyone here used such a product ever? This is not the plain old chat room spamming Iam taking about.

Say its SPIM 2.0.
