NEED HELP! What Hosting Do You Recommend For....

prophetmktg · 12-01-2011, 10:35 AM

Hey all,

I need an expert's opinion about hosting a self-hosted auto responder.

I have Autoresponder Plus. (I'm getting fed up with Aweber)...

If anyone could recommend a hosting option for this I would really appreciate it!

Thanks in advance!

Also....

Are there any other requirements I should be aware of before going forward with a self hosted auto responder....

I'd appreciate responses ONLY from those that have done it before! :-)

the only hosting company i know of that specializes in hosting AR software is

Hit Direct Standard Account Features

if you have a list of any real size you will need a dedicated server. most shared hosting accounts have a limit of 100-250 emails sent per hour. some dont limit their vps servers, and most hosting companies dont have any restrictions on their dedicated servers.

this thread also has some pretty good advice on the topic:

May I ask, why are you getting fed up with Aweber?

It's just that I use them and I think they're great.

We all used to use AR in the early days but I don't know anybody who still does. Just getting your emails past the spam filters is a full time job. Leave it to the experts.
