Hey all!! Been subscribed to the forum and fed on the golden information i found in here for the last few months. For this i'd first like to thank this amazing community, THANK YOU!!!
Now I go straight to the point: I have a bunch of good e-mail addresses (about 600k) and i would like to use some of them for a quick test in the nutra vertical. I looked around for some good and affordable newsletter email services (such as Mailchimp etc).
Does anybody have some suggestions on which one to chose?
Basically I would love to test about 20k emails without spending too much. Is there anything cheap and decent (Mailchimp is quite pricey, especially for now that I don't know whether my emails would work on this vertical)?
Thanks for the help everyone!
Update: I tried using mailchimp for 2k emails (free plan) just to start getting a hang on how it works. I was stop right away for breaching terms of use of the service (spam). i guess it was the presence of the affiliate link. Is this normal? Do you know other options with loser terms of use?
Thanks a lot!!!!
I think that Mailchimp doesn't like affiliate links in their emails that they send. Also I heard uploading email they have to be optin. But it sounds like the affiliate link got you.
Hey Buck!! Thanks for the reply! Went through the terms of use and it clearly states affiliate links are not welcome (also found an older thread were Matuloo stated the same). I guess sometimes a better compromise between research and taking action is needed...of course.
I am using elastic email now, just sent 2k emails of the 5k i have for free. No problems for now and interface and tracking look good. Fingers crossed!!
Thanks again for taking the time to reply!!!
