Newsletter software

Hey guys, I want to start a newsletter on my site, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

I've seen these sites offering good service. e.g.

http://www.yourmailinglistprovider.com

However I don't really want to pay for it because I don't know how many people I am going to be signing up.

I also don't want to use free trials with ads etc..

Can anyone give me any advice?

thanks

 

use aweber it is the best.

 

try aweber, its pretty simple.

 

please read what I want in the software before posting

Aweber is about 10x more expensive than the one i suggested.

I am looking for something free.

 

Can anyone else suggest anything. I want to offer a newsletter on my site.

 

The problem with free providers is (as you already know) that they usually aren't reliable, they add annoying ads in the newsletter and their emails usually end in spam folders etc

And at the end, 5-10$ a month isn't a lot either. I suggest that you sacrifice those few bucks at the start and get a reliable service because I'm sure you'll be able to get your money back really soon anyway.

 

What's the best stand alone newsletter application (something that doesn't require monthly payments and I can manage myself from my computer)?

 

I know there is something in Cpanel to do with newsletters, but I don't understand it.

I just found this: http://www.phplist.com

Has anyone used it before?

 

there is a newsletter scripts out there, you install it on your web directory via ftp then you will have your own newsletter service for yourself. I will post if i remember the script name and If i have it too
