Default Best alternative to Aweber and Get Response?

Hi fellow Warriors!

I know, there are plenty of threads on autoresponders but I'm still sitting on the fence, wanting to take the plunge, going with Aweber. But, lol...

I'm trying to watch my expenses, on the same hand, I do not want to skimp on quality. Then I read somewhere about these two warriors, who got tired of paying top money, then started their own responder.

It is called Wizardresponder and the monthly fee is $8.97, with NO price increase and you can have up to 10,000 subscribers, for the same price .

However, I know NOTHING about them. Double opt-in, single opt-in, deliverability, ease of use, etc. Could someone please comment if you have any experience with this autoresponder?

There is also another Warrior who has his own autoresponder but I can not remember what it is called. When I read that particular thread, it sounded pretty good, but I forgot to bookmark it .

Thank you for your help Warriors, lol.

I came across 1stautoresponders.com on here which I have been playing with - is that what you mean?

Seems fine so far but only really just started (signed on a bit ago but forgot about it!)

Vikuna2009,
One thing that I would not skimp on is an autoresponder. If you are serious about this business, get the best. An email is worth nothing if it doesn't reach it's destination. I use and love Aweber.
Just my thoughts,
Bob

I like Aweber too. They watch out for quality emails that get delivered and keep their subscribers out of trouble. They have a news letter that is usually full of good info on subjects concerning email marketing and how to use their site to your full advantage.

Hope this helps.
Julia

Changing autoresponders down the track is not something you will want to do.

When deciding on your autoresponder service, think ahead to what you want to achieve and make sure that service meets your requirements.

Check out this post:

Isn't it time you upgrade your AutoResponder Service?

It looks VERY interesting and I am tempted myself.

Yes, that is the one ! Read through the whole thread but no mentioning about pricing. Can someone chime in on that please?

Aweber and Getresponse are great, I have both.

I have also tried several purchased systems I run on my own dedicated servers but let me warn you that this often leads to MTU Reputation problems on your SMTP ip address so rather avoid it.

I am also testing 1stautoresponder and although the interface is basic it seems to work well and if you need to import from aweber or getresponse they will set it up so that a new double opt-in on the import is not required.

More recently I have been testing smartautoresponder.com and I am impressed, it has a very user friendly interface and easy upgrade. What is also great is that you can signup to their other company jvanet.com/listbuilderpro and they will advertise your ezine/newsletter to build your list at 500 and even up to 5000 Double-optins per month for a reasonable fee.

Another good commercial autoresponder is 1shoppingcart which Frank Kern and other marketers use.

Anybody have any experience with Mailchimp? It seems more flexible than AWeber.
