Aweber or Icontact or Mailchimp or Interspire ?

Thanks entrepreneurjay for your response. Have you any experience about interspire selfhosted email solution. I want to mail affiliate link so selfhosted would be best but i don't know its inbox accuracy.

Thanks

I use Interspire now for a few weeks on diffrent domains for diffrent products and services. Works wonderful.

Using my regular hosting account I am limited to mail out max. 500 email per hour, but thats fine with me.

Mailchip is not recommend if you wanna promote affiliate products.

I have never heard of them sorry. The two most popular email services are Aweber which I use and Getresponse pretty much any top internet marketer uses 1 of these 2.

You can sign up for aweber for a $1.00 for your first month I am not sure if Getresponse offers any promos for new subscribers but I am sure they do.

Your welcome and good luck!

Thanks

Don't use mailchimp. Go either with iContact or Aweber. iContact is free though up to 500 subscribers, nice to start with and they have a really nice interface

Imnica Mail is another good one. Cheaper than the big two, same delivery rate. DON'T do self-hosted. Too much of a pain and you risk your domain being blacklisted.

I would recommend Imnicamail as well. They are a smaller, but fast growing company and work really hard to provide an excellent service.

I moved all my lists to them a while ago and have never regretted it for a second.

AWeber and GetResponse seem to have decided that their businesses are aimed at the big players these days and although they (in particular AWeber) were the AR of choice for most Internet marketers at one time, that hold on the general market has long since relaxed.

Imnica have excellent deliverability, are very easy to use and have all the features you are likely to need, but at a fraction of the cost. There is a $1 (I think) trial on offer, so you can make your own mind up.

Very accurate. I've not had an email go to spam. And yes you can do affiliate links with them. Not to mention surveys to your list. And segmentation...

Inbox accuracy: all autoresponders have the odd problem with this. It would be silly to pretend otherwise. If Gmail (for example) decide to filter newsletters to spam, Aweber will be affected just as Imnica will. But Imnica don't suffer from it any more than any other autoresponder and work very hard behind the scenes to keep their deliverability up there with the market leaders. I certainly wouldn't trust my livlihood to them if that wasn't the case!

Affiliate links: Of course you can send affiliate links in your emails. It would be a very strange autoresponder that didn't allow that!

Best wishes,

Martin

Mailchimp is a no go. Too many reasons to mention here.... Basically its not user friendly and its free version is not at all for commercial use.

Aweber all the way for me. And thats from direct experience. Its cheap, and it works. The only downside is that as a newbie you cant buy lists or use third parties lists...

Don't use Mailchimp! ..as already mentioned by others. The reason I say so is the user interface is not very straightforward and I ended up wasting hours of my time trying to learn how everything works.

When I opted in to their training, they put me on a "Live" webinar, then proceeded to call me for the next week to follow up. Quite annoying!

Go with Aweber for ease of use, or iContact for most features. Hope this helps, wish I could've posted earlier...

EDIT: You've already selected Imnicamail. If you wouldn't mind, can you update us on how that is?

I see the best solution is Interspire because i can host it and send unlimited email But the problem is Inbox accuracy. Can i inbox 95% email if i use dedicated IP. Really waiting for your response guys.

Aweber. By the way, what site is that? What software did you use?

Does imnica mail allow you to upload your own subscribers/lists? I just purchased this to do email blasts, but looks like I don't have that option?

Don't use mailchimp - they do affiliate marketing - they add affiliate links to their free accounts emails, but they will NOT allow you to do any affiliate marketing campaign. Fu** them.

iContact is good but their plans have limited sending, calculate x6 per user base, so if you get a 2500 user list plan, you can send only 15000 email per month.

Interspire is good if you have money to invest, a good developer and willing to sell a dedicated mailing platform to your paying customers - don't do that if you're not into this niche

Aweber is the way to go

Ohh I forget about imnica mail: I know they are good on delivery, however, as far as I got from my past experience 14 months ago, they have a slow support and don't allow you import lists yourself. You have to send them along with ips for each contact and wait for them to add to your list.

May be things improved meanwhile, I would check with them, as they are pretty cheap and willing to grab as much market as they can.

Does aweber allow you to upload your own list without ips for each contact?

{{ DiscussionBoard.errors[4715923].message }}

Yes but a confirmation for each contact is required, in other words a weber sends them out an email asking to click on the confirmation link, just like a double optin list.
You can lost many contacts if you don't have a strong relationship with them.

My personal advice: prepare a good bonus content and deliver it using the autoresponder as soon as they confirm.
Before moving away from your old provider, tell them that they will be asked to confirm to get a bonus. Import your list to a weber and set the confirm message with something like: "to get my bonus please confirm by clicking the link below"

Hope it helps

Iminica looks good but...I signed up and:

Their welcome email went straight to my Gmail Spambox...hmmm. Makes me wonder, if they cannot deliver their mail how can they deliver mine?

Anyway I will consider it an anomaly and give it a shot.

It's not an anomaly. Every single marketer that's using Imnica is going to Gmail spam.

I was wondering why I hadn't seen a Kickstart newsletter for a while. Just checked my Gmail spam and found emails from a few marketers using Imnica in there. Martin Avis, Justin Michie, Shaun & Mark are a few I came across.

I'm currently with Imnica after using Constant Contact about 5 years ago and Get Response up until about 2 years ago. After much research Imnica came the closest to Aweber's raw features set and deliverability but at a much lower cost. We've had some disappointments though with Imnica and their interface pails in comparison to most the other services - even though I'm a seasoned user of these services and don't need a 'fancy' interface. You get what you pay for in most cases is what it boils down to. Even though I looked at it, I discounted MailChimp probably a little too much a year or two ago because the interface looked borderline 'cartoonish' We've been using it for some small sends lately and I'm somewhat impressed with their offering, especially at their price points. I just started this other thread (not seeing this one) if you want to see more details about my experiences:

http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...-response.html

Bottom line is Aweber is probably the no-brainer "best" if you can afford them. MailChimp isn't an option if you are doing affiliate marketing but if your list is under 2,000, Mailchimp is a no brainer as its free! Our list is 50K subscribers. We are thinking of moving from Imnica to Mailchimp.

Watch out with MailChimp!!!

Here is their TOS...copied verbatim:

Also, there are some industries that send certain types of content that result in higher than normal bounce rates and abuse complaints, which in turn jeopardize the deliverability of our entire system. No offense intended, but because we must ensure the highest delivery rates possible for all our customers, we do not allow businesses that offer these types of services, products, or content:

Illegal goods or services

as has been mentioned Aweber is the gorilla in the corner and I have used get response as well. I think you would be happy with either although I have used several of the tools other warriors have brought up here. 15 emails a month per person is a lot for me personally. I think most users would be annoyed at that much contact unless you are sending them real quality information and very few pitches. Just my 2 cents

You can always use both interspire and aweber. Use interspire for any offline contacts you need to import without requiring them to optin again. Use aweber to get that list to opt-in to - like a buyers or more interested parties list.
Might want to get a dedicated IP for interspire and run from at least a VPS.
