What E-Mail Marketing Platforms Do You Recommend?

14 replies
I have a list of about 20,000 e-mails that I have acquired over the past 10 years from an old business that are applicable to what I'm doing now.

Same industry, different brand name.

I sent out an e-blast recently through Constant Contact and after a high number of bounce-backs and a few spam reports, the campaign was put on hold.

What e-mail service do you all recommend to work through these types of issues. I want to be able to send e-mails freely while I work on cleaning up this list and can legitimately move to a Constant Contact.

There has got to be services out there that are more lenient with bouncebacks and spam reports?

THNX for your help!

    Have you looked in to autoresponders? They can manage your email list and allows you to send out broadcast messages as well as setting up periodical email/newsletters etc.

    With a list that size you will pay a premium, but autoresponders like Aweber have anti spam measures in place to reduce bounce backs. They also have a bit of information here that may help you if you go down this route and it's good advice even of you don't

    Hope this helps

    I'd suggest using "Mailpoet" with your own host, or send through gmail. You have to have a WordPress site, but you don't even have to use the site. It's just necessary because Mailpoet works as a plugin.

    I am personaly using getresponse, it's a good service, have good flexibility and features for creating your list in different style as required. Mostly emails you send will not get flagged or go into spam folder as you can check your email body with test score.

    Personally, I would recommend Aweber as it's a great and effective email marketing autoresponder.

    My team and I use Aweber for a few of our marketing campaigns. I'd recommend it over anything else.

    Aweber and getresponse are the best in the market. Both of them have spam protection.

    I also agree that either Aweber or Get Response is worth a look. If you call the customer service numbers for either of those 2 they are very helpful.

    Hi,

    I can only vouch for Getresponse & Aweber as they are the ONLY 2
    I've ever tried and still use today.

    None of them have ever let me down yet.

    Great service and always updating to make testing and such
    more easy to do.

    Have a great day

    Check out admail.net

    They are good for lists like yours. I would use it to scrub out all the complaints, bounces, etc and then move your good emails to a ESP like GetResponse or Aweber.

    The answer is....... it depends.

    If you have a business that isn't involved in affiliate marketing, mailchimp is easily the best. If you do have an affiliate marketing business, then aweber is probably where you will be headed.

      I like Interspire.. All my emails go to the primary tab.. I still have Aweber but my emails end up in the promotions tab with hardly any opens... When I exported my list to Interspire (self-hosted), sent out a blast to the same list.. the open rate was incredible.. I even had subscribers ask me where I had been
