    Hello all, I am new to email marketing and I am looking for an email marketing software having the following features and also which is affordable

    The features that I am looking for are as follows

    1.address each recipient by their name! For e.g., displaying "Dear <Customer's Name> " at the beginning of the body text.

    2.Should be doing the same thing inside Subject. This way the Subject will be dynamic that will have text like "Customer Name, save more by shopping at our store today!"

    3.Track any delivery metrics such as number of emails bounced, number opened etc.

    4.It should allow me to dynamically tag each URL in the email with a unique tracking code. For e.g., apart from campaign name, content etc., I should also put some tracking code that is a unique identifier of that recipient. The objective is, I should be able to track the activity of each email visitor to site (what pages they visit, time spent etc.).


    Thank U..

    You can try Aweber as I am their customers. It is very easy to use but the things I don't like is they charge you something like per hundred subscribers which are higher among others for example, GetResponse. Anyway, you've got to start at some where as email marketing is the most effective/fastest method of marketing among others.

    Aweber. That's the gold standard.

    This is up to individual. For me, Aweber has more user friendly interface compare to others.
