Email marketing is one of the most used and productive forms of product and service marketing methods. There are many email service providers online that can give you great features and value for your money.
We’ve covered the importance and strategies of email marketing in some of our recent posts. I’d like provide you with 5 of what I think to be the best email marketing services available on the web today. We’re taking into account features such as spam checker, email tracking and analytical reporting, template catalogues, customisation and more.
For those still wondering what an email newsletter is, it is basically a newsletter in email form that is emailed to a subscriber on a regular basis. Within an email newsletter you can keep your subscribers updated with all the latest news, products and services available on your website.
Here are my Top 5 choices!
1. Mail Chimp (www.mailchimp.com)
With Mail Chimp you can store up to 1,000 subscribers, send up to 6,000 newsletters a month for free. They offer a monthly and pay-as-you-go plan as well as a high volume plan. Their features include an iPhone App, specific geological targeting and advanced social tools. Mail Chimp definitely deserves top spot in my case and I advise you to check it out for yourself.
2. Vertical Response (www.verticalresponse.com)
Vertical Response is currently my choice for all my product and service promoting and marketing needs. With Vertical Response again you can choose their popular pay-as-you-go service or monthly plan. Their monthly plan starts from as little as $10 a month for an unlimited service. As well as marketing tips, you can choose from hundreds of pre-designed templates. Check out their 30-day trial to give them a try.
3. Aweber Communications (www.aweber.com)
Aweber has exploded into the limelight and is particularly popular amongst internet marketers and bloggers. Sign-up for the first month for only $1 and then just $19 a month which in my mind is a big step especially if you have a small number of contacts to begin with. Their features include an autoresponder, HTML templates and blog style newsletters.

Constant Contact has a massive 60 day free trial and a low pricing of only $15 a month for up to 500 email addresses thereafter. Choose from over 400 customisable HTML templates; upload your logo and photo’s. Features include anti-spam checker and open and click reports.
