    I don't have good experience on cheap autoresponders.

    You can't go wrong choosing AWeber or GetResponse.

    Both are affordable and providing top quality service.

    There is rarely anything good AND cheap.

    Affordable solutions though include Aweber, and Get response. The are the most popular nowadays.

    Here is an economically price autoresponder service that I've used for many years...

    Imnica Mail - Email Marketing Service - Email Marketing Solved

    The owner is a Warrior. I also use Aweber and a self-hosted autoresponder as well. Imnica is slightly behind Aweber in the terms of deliverability but are tough to beat for the price.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers,
    Coby

    Aweber is good and cheap.

    What I'm I missing?

    Do you really need something cheaper then $20 a month. That's not cheap? lol

    I think people need to stop being cheap and understand, for a good auto responder at $20 a month is not bad, not bad at all from what you will get out of it.

    If you understand what you are doing, you will be able to pay that bill for a year with only a few days work.

    Now finding a great solo ad for cheap. Let alone finding a good one at any price is hard to find. Finding good people is what you should be worried about.

    Finding a cheap system that works is easy. Many use Aweber and would definitely consider it to be cheap.

    Sorry if I have an attitude with this comment. I don't know what is wrong with me today.

    I don't think they are being cheap in most cases, they are just limited by their budgets, and don't have or can't afford to spend much. You are right though, $20 a month is cheap for what they offer.

      I guess I'm thinking on what I would of done when I first started. If I knew what I know now.

      I would have a plan on what I'm going to do, and in my plan, I would be able to pay all my IM bills before I even started. Before I would spend a single dime.

      I feel sorry for beginners jumping into this. It is a hard road to go down when you learn as you go. Instead of learning before you go. Trust me, this road sucks. It is the road I took but it does still lead to success. Its just not as easy.

          I was the complete opposite. I wish I haven't found the WF when I first started.

          Gave me information overload. Hundreds down the drain from crap products and Scammy systems.

          It was until I found one guy, one guy out of thousands of people, that showed me a step by step system in building a list.

          After that, I was on my way.

    I would definitely have to agree with everyone else and go with Aweber or Get Response. They are both very reasonable.

    I'm a newbie and I'm using ezezine.com. It works out great for me because with the free plan you can send out 200 emails a month and my list building is going super slow! I'm not sure if an e-zine host is the same thing as an autoresponder though?

    If you are really strapped for cash use List Wire - it's free and more importantly, it works and works well.

    Well my post got deleted but GVO is a great auto-responder and affordable at only 9.99 a month. They also have a referral program where you earn 50% residual commissions for each referral to the auto responder! Hope this helps!

    Aweber is cheap the first month just $1

    If you want to get serious about listbuilding, then you could probably get a trial for $1 there and then make enough money the second month to pay for the $19 fee.

      I used Aweber in the past and they were excellent. Out of curiosity I just signed up for a free month with GetResponse and was planning to go paid with them until I had a minor disaster. They have a very good system for designing newsletters and I'd put about 2-3 hours work into that when suddenly (yesterday) I got an error message "Content Syntax Error". I tried to reopen the newsletter but it had gone, to be replaced with the default template. As there's no obvious way of archiving your work other than saving as a draft, or live version, once it's gone it's gone. I raised a support call with them and to be fair they said they would TRY to recover my document, but I'm not hopeful. The pages have several different page elements so it's not possible to just cut and paste into a local app, although I guess I should have saved the text at least. Ah well...

      Best Regards,
      Mark.

    Mailchimp is cheap and good.
    In fact, they are giving free subscriber usage. I think up to 500.
    Do give it a try, it is free anyway.

    I personally use Aweber
