    Hello,
    I think, Mailchamp is a useful software for Email Marketing. MailChimp offers free subscription for 2000 subscribers or 12,000 emails per month. For unlimited account, the pricing starts from $10.

    You can also use Target Hero, this tool is ideal for businesses that require a wide spectrum of features to run their campaigns, but often lack the large subscriber lists. Their free plan gives you 1,000 contacts with unlimited emails. For up to 3,000 contacts, you need to get the $9.90/month Mini Hero plan. The Hero plan gives you as many as 5,000 contacts at $19.90. And, the Super Hero plan can be had for $39.90 for up to 10,000 contacts. (up to your need).

    Another software I refer to you is Litmus, it is a highly versatile tool through which you can use to test and track email. Litmus comes with a free 7-day trial, while the premium version can be had for $399 a month, $149 for the Plus version, and $79 for the basic version. Now you ask for cheapest, so you something to pay for good results.

    I'm using GetResponse for a while now. It's the best solution for me.
    Also I know that Emma is also rather popular.
    But both systems are more appropriate for small businesses. You should consider your company size before choosing.

    Get Response is the best in my opinion, they guide you through different methods of marketing for a small business with their videos, and there are also many tools provided to make attractive emails and converting landing pages. :cool:

    I can say that I will start work with get response soon so it looks very good from things what I know now. But in a past I was using mailpoet and my results was terrible, messages never landed in peoples inboxes

    I've never heard of mail poet. Don't you have integration issues with lesser known email marketing sites?

    Without mailcheap you also can use AWeber or Constant Contact. First you have to know about other soft. like as mailcheap, then you have to take decision which will reasonable for you?

    I would be interested to get feedback re MailChimp from established DP members, there seems to be too many newbies (users with low message count) in this thread and it looks a bit suspicious to me... I tried to compare deliverability rates between providers, but all review websites that I found so far are promotional websites that were setup to promote one or another service... :(

    MailChimp has decent inbox rates. I have never heard of anybody having issues with MailChimp in that respect. But I really don't like their interface. I've had way too many problems with them. Great support, but I would rather deal with places where I didn't need to get to know their support.

    I am also using Mailchimp and found it quite effective. However you can also suggest you to use Sendinblue.

    When it comes to email marketing, I recommend considering these factors first before choosing a technology option:
    • Integration requirements (e-commerce platform, crm, website, etc.)
    • Automation strategy and sophistication (short and long-term)
    • Purpose of email marketing (top of mind awareness, drip campaign, behavioral trigger notifications, dynamic behavioral targeting)
    • Goals of email marketing (repeat traffic, customer engagement, cross-sell opportunity, external supplementary monetization)
    From here, this can help define required functionality to properly execute the overall result you are looking for. As it relates to tools, here are my goto options:

    Simple Email Marketing (top of mind awareness, drip campaigns)

    #1 MailChimp - Alternatives: Campaigner, Constant Contact
    (I did not enjoy my experience with AWeber and switched to MailChimp due to user friendliness and workflow automation)

    Advanced Email Marketing (dynamic behavioral targeting)

    #1 Marketo - Alternatives: Maropost, Intercom, Mautic

    Your email marketing concerns may or may not be a function of the software either. Other factors that can affect your campaign success include:
    • Traffic quality or expectations
    • Subject line quality
    • Content quality
    • Graphic aesthetics
    • Communication frequency
    In my experience, I have found that the importance of process often supersedes the influence of the tools we use to execute it.

    Hope this helps :)

    Well this autority providers are all the same and they are all good, problem with delivering mails is that you use wrong keywords for the subject line,
    many email services like gmail, hotmail have triggers for spam, and if you use this words mails end up in spam folder, but if you want to chage email autoresponder
    then choose get response, hope this helps

    Quick update: I decided to go with MailChimp and, so far, I like it a lot :) I had to learn a few tweaks, but email seems to get delivered (as I am getting replies :)). I wish they had a bit more "professional" name :)
    Thanks to everyone who responded with review of MailChimp!
