AWebber Email Autoresponder
Name: AWebber
URL: www.aweber.com
Purpose: Email autoresponding, list management
The glue that keeps my business together - my email autoresponder and list builder.
This article is intended to help you reach a decision on whether AWebber is the right email autoresponder for you and whether you need one in the first place.
Why I use AWebber Autoresponders
In a nutshell there were three reasons why I choose to use aeber instead of other products.
- I wasn’t using all the extra features more expensive products have.
- Therefore I was being overcharged so I wanted a cheaper option.
3. I heard good things about another autoresponder called AWeber and I noticed many of the newsletters I signed up for from professional Internet marketers seem to be using AWeber mailing lists. The “street cred” was good.
As usual I did some due diligence first and looked around forums to see what people were saying about AWebber and it was very hard to find a negative comment. Most of it was glaringly positive, in fact it felt in most cases that AWebber was the de facto standard email autoresponder, which only happens when a product keeps its customers very happy.
Deliverability – its all about the Email
There is a big concern in email marketing circles about mail deliverability, which refers to whether emails sent to your lists make it through. The problem is a lot of mail servers block mass emails sent out and unless the email responder service provider has pre-arranged to be whitelisted your mail won’t get through. That’s pretty detrimental to any online company.
Aeber has the enviable record of the highest percentage of email deliverability, which means AWebber is doing a great job to make sure your emails make it to your customers.
This fact alone is enough of a reason to choose AWebber.com.
Functionality
There is a learning curve to using an email autoresponder. You will find that with any system and you just have to learn your way through. I find AWebbers system a loteasier to use than other similar products. It’s simple in design with all the core features available through tabs at the top. It took very little time to get the hang of it.
How I Use AWebber
I use aeber for all my online promotions and it controls all my email lists. Constantly, I use it to distribute newsletters, which collects the email of people who download my free report and I then keep in contact with a series of autoresponse emails
AWebber recently added the ability to RSS-to-email. This is a service. This service is very helpful because I can create an email mailing list for people who want to stay up to date with my blogs via email. Just plug in your RSS feed and tell AWebber how many blog articles to send out in each. From a sales point of view it’s a very powerful resource because it keeps you connected with your prospects and clients.
Do I need to be a guru to use awebber?
It took me about 45 minutes collectively to figure out and master Awebber. I’m a programmer and I am very fluent in HTML. Awebber has been built to be as “cut and paste” as possible and you certainly do not need to know HTML use it.
If you are not familiar with web basics like online forms you may need help. Read through the instructional materials now and then until you get the hang of it - I did a few times when I first started using the system.
Most of the interface is simple forms you fill out and once you have a play you will understand how everything works. Of course there is a very good helpdesk and live support if you need it.
Price
You can find AWebber’s pricing breakdown on their website. Since I knew I was going to use email lists extensively in the future I chose the yearly option with the heaviest discount (it works out to be $15USD per month). There is a money back guarantee so if I didn’t like the service I knew I could get a refund.
