    Hi DP members.

    I want to integrate email subscriptions into my WordPress blog. More importantly, I'd like to be able to manage them efficiently by myself.

    Aside Aweber, which email subscription package do you recommend?

    If you are willing to pay for an autoresponder, and if you are running your site to make money then you should be willing to pay for one, then Aweber.com is your best choice

    GetResponse.com is a close second to Aweber in terms of features and deliverability and is preferred by some people

    If you are looking for a free option then Mailchimp.com is free for the first 2000 subscribers but they hate affiliate marketers so don't use them if you send any affiliate offers in your emails

    The only other free option that I know of that would be worth trying is ListWire.com, I have never used it myself but I have heard good things about it

    Hope that helps

    Campaign monitor has always been my favorite emailing software. It integrates with WP nicely and has a great API.

    I really appreciate this info. I'll still go for Aweber because of their functionality.

    Thanks for clearing my doubts.
