    I have around 3000 Email ids.

    I want to mail all of them my website campaigns.

    But my website host dont allow bulk mailing.

    I have checked on diffrent mail programs like yahoo or google They also allow only 100 recipients in each mail.

    Any email service which allow bulk email facility .

    I think the important question to ask here is whether you got those addresses ethically (people sent your their information), or if you scraped/bought a list.

    If you scraped/bought a list, you'll probably be SOL unless you find a hosting provider that doesn't mind it when their customers spam (you could look for a russian web hosting provider, they tend to allow them).

    If you got them legitimately, you could send them through a free mass email program like PHPList, but on a shared hosting account you'll need to throttle it to 100 emails/hour as most shared hosts have strict limits on how many emails/hour you can send. PHPList will do it all for you, just set it to 100/hour and come back in 30 hours and the email will have all been sent out.

    Hi,
    I would strongly recommend using an email Auto Responder like Aweber. You can easily import all your emails and names from a spread sheet. Everyone on your list will get an email asking them to confirm the subscription (can be bypassed) which is very important for your future mailings. In this way you will not be labeled as a spammer.
    Aweber allows you to set up pre-written emails, mailed at certain times or any time you like. You also create great looking submission forms to be placed on your website (or in an email). This is the way to go if you are serious about your online business...:rolleyes:

    AWeber doesn't allow you to import lists. He has a list of 3000 emails he wants to spam. AWeber won't let you do that.

    I am not sure what the list looks like that the person in question has but
    I had a look at my Aweber account and it tells the following:

    Import Subscribers:

    Use this page to import a group of opt-in subscribers at once, up to a maximum of 2000 subscribers each day.

    Instructions:
    List your subscribers one per line. The fields can be in any order, as long as it is the same order for each lead.

    When using this form, each new lead will receive your autoresponse unless you set the message number higher than 0. Omitting the message number will start the lead from the beginning of your follow up message sequence. Your autoresponse will be sent to your new subscribers in less than 12 hours.

    Hmm...that's interesting. When I last tried out their service (about 1.5 years ago), they didn't allow you to import lists - a fact they didn't tell you about until AFTER you paid the $300 signup fee. Suffice to say, when I had a list of a few thousand double opt-in subscribers and wanted to import them and found out I couldn't, I swore off their service lol.

    However I have doubts that the OP got those 3000 subscribers via opt-in, so I guess the point is moot either way.

    Use any of the bulk email sending desktop software with hostgator baby hosting plan. With this plan you can send 500 email in a hour.

    Hello iwantvarun,
    I believe some professional email marketing software will let u send bulk email campaigns u are speaking about.
    On the assumption of my experience, i can highly recommend u dotmailer. It’s is a powerful email marketing platform, that IMO has a number of awesome features. Besides a trial account is available at their website, so u can test the software and find out more about this email marketing agency here: dotmailer.co.uk
