Aweber: we may be a bit biased here, but Aweber has been a service that we have been using for years, and it continues to be a great partner for our business. The interface is very easy to get used to and the service gives us a lot of control over our forms and how we manage our lists. Managing subscribers couldn’t be easier. Besides, the service is very affordable too. If you are going to have a lot of lists, you are going to enjoy working with Aweber.

Constant Contact: before using Aweber, we were a part of Constant Contact community. This email marketing service comes with a ton of features for businesses and is a bit more pricey than Aweber. The reason we made the switch to Aweber was the fact that e-mail was not part of our main strategy to expand our business. But if you rely heavily on e-mail lists to get your business done, Constant Contact and their support team are a pleasure to work with. They also help you stay compliant with the spam laws. You can always try the service for 60 days free of charge. Continue reading 4 Best Newsletter Services for Businesses
