Thread: setting up email newsletters on your website`

Hi guys i want to set up a weekly newsletter to send out to potential customers each week. Does vodahost provide any software for sending out email newsletters that will help me keep track of customers who sign up each day? There is one on fantasico called phplist, but i'm finding it difficult to use.

I also want a newsletter form to appear each time someone visits our site, similar to this one.




Thanks

I had a look around for a detailed tuturial for phplist but couldn't find one, anyone know if vodahost provide newsletter software thats easy to use.

The only one is in fantastico that voda provides. You are perfectly able to use something like AWEBER or other services to do this.

Using a professional service is actually preferred. keeps the server from being blacklisted for spam, keeps you from being shut down for sending spam, ensures delivery of your mail, and more..your list, optins optouts, etc etc

Thanks for your reply karen but is the any free newsletter software? Aweber have a charging fee.

Oh im sure there is.. tons of free software.. but they wont give the insurances that PAID services do. If you send ALOT of mail ... More than 200 a day... you really SHOULD use a paid service. Your ISP can shut you down for as little as 25 an hour.
