    I dont think their website makes this clear. If you get too many subscribers the price goes up to a massive $149 per month.

    If you don't keep paying they refuse to let you have access to your email data.

    I don't think that can be legal.

    Thanks for the heads up man. I was thinking about joining, but I didn't think about that...

    Yeah it can be very expensive to have an account there, but if you are keeping a good relationship with your list and monetizing correctly, it should more than pay for itself. The great thing about aweber is that the first month is only one dollar so you can build your list without much cost in the beginning.

    I know someone who uses Aweber, and I do not think they know about this. Thanks for the warning, I will let them know.

    Yes, first 10k subscribers are free or something, then they start charging $9.99 per 10k subscribers, i have a list of 35k and am paying around $48 or something every month, true that if the list goes above 100k then you will have a tough time, so i keep cleaning my list, worst part is they even count the unsubscribed subscribers too (towards the count of number of subscribers for monthly charge), so one needs to keep deleting those entries once in a while else you end up paying for those where there is no ROI.
