Use Feedblitz to manage email subscriptions or run my own?

    I'm wondering what the thoughts are on the pluses and minuses of having a service like Feedblitz handle your email subscriptions vs. providing the same type of service from your own site. One of the things I particularly dislike about Feedblitz is the delay between the publication of an article and the actual notification going out to my subscribers. (I understand that this is a trade off for using their free service vs. their paid service). Anyway, I'd appreciate your comments.

    Regards,

    Robert

    I appreciate that but what I'm trying to understand are the pros and cons of managing your own list vs. having an outside agency do it. Is there an advantage to your approach if you have the capability of managing it yourself?

    Thanks!
