I've used the paid version of Constant Contact in the past. Constant Constant has codes you can copy and paste onto your website to allow visitors to subscribe. It's a pretty powerful tool if you use it to the full extent. I used it for newsletters, surveys, and events. Personally, I think it's a bit on the pricey side though.

Thanks for that info. I'm learning how expensive email marketing can be. Even good ole Sumome demands Pro status to tie into an autoresponder--that is if you want to do anything but the basic-- here's my sign up form, give me your email, type stuff. And since I'm just now trying to get my websites "out there," paying for email is not feasible yet. But hey, it's all good. I've got a good start and I'm fianlly moving forward again. God bless everyone! It's a beautiful day!!!

After I left my comment, I started researching the prices of similar services. It was enlightening. Like you said, email marketing is expensive. Constant contact doesn't seem any more expensive than the rest. A gal could go broke subscribing to all the different services that make being an affiliate easier or more effective.

Information available here. It captures your e-mail to explore but does have free options: https://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp

I've been into aweber and get response. I need to bypass Sumome and I'm not sure that's possible.

I have always heard of Awebber being the email service to use.
Personally, I have not gotten that far yet.

I want to add an advice column, Dear Abby style, to my website, theimportanceofyou.com. Any ideas on how best to do this. I'm using AWeber for email and Wordpress Comment for

a great idea Barbara. Best wishes towards your end goal.

Sounds like a really great idea Barbara, good luck with it.

That's a good idea Barbara!....I imagine Google would love that.

Hi Barbara, what a grand idea to have an advice column

Here is a plugin that appears to do the job.

Thanks so much

Got it. Now I've got to get it working- I can make minor changes to code, but not-so-good at installing. I put in the codes--or thought I did, but..... Thanks again. I'll get it worked out. It's just what I needed.

Sounds like a good idea. Hope it works out for you, Barbara

Thanks, if it takes off, it will be a lot of work!

Trying to set up an email list collector and my emails aren't working. they won't verify and when I send an email, nothing is received or forwarded. Any ideas.

My emails receive but I cannot seem to send any!

I just checked. It's working now... Thanks everyone.

My emails are fine. I hope yours come right soon :)

I cant even log into mine. This isn't any good.

I think the webmail site is down. It'll come back up. Nothing is certain on the internet.

Recently with power drains due to storms and hot weather across the US there has been spot internet outages that have caused this problem. A few hours wait usually works, otherwise a call to tech support is in order.

thanks Mike.

AOK for me Barb. Maybe a re-boot?
Tim

I tried.

Mine was working fine. No idea.

I know about downloaded ebooks on my computer, but how do I secure an ebook for my website? Do I download it somewhere? Just link to it? That doesn't sound secure. I've sear

Upload it to your media library in PDF form. Then, find the link to it just like you would an image. Then, on your "Thank You" page, have an Adobe PDF icon linked to the PDF in your media library - so when people sign up, they get your Thank You landing page, click on the Adobe icon and are presented with the PDF download in their browser. If you want to see one in action, Just PM me. :-)

Thanks for sharing, PJ.

anytime! One day, I'll do a video on it. :-)

Great! Looking fwd to it.

Just saw your answer after the reask, Sorry!☺☺☺

Just call and PJ answers!
Our hero. :-)
thanks PJ

LOL!! I try! Thanks Barbara!

I will. Don't have time right now, but I'll be back! You are my hero, PJ!

Please do!

You are so smart!

The video is processing. Will have it up shortly. :-)

He´s a super techie

Yes he is and so selfless and helpful.....

You might try Amazon for downloadable e-books.

I believe Marion had done a training about this. Search in the question bar. I'm sure you'll get everything you need from Pj though ;-)

I tried Google and the search bar. Nothing for what I was asking. I've got it saved to my media file now tho and gonna check PJ website for the sequence of emails. Thanks!

How can she tweak it so others can access the e-book and download it?

PJ has your answer, just below.. :-)

look forward to the video PJ will make. I'll be needing this info soon

Thanks for asking this, Barbara. Will soon be needing this info.

Download it and save to a folder of your choice :)

I think you should download it onto your computer......
Then you know you have it.

But I have to have a web access for others to download it.

Good question Barbara. The very important thing is the relationship. Somebody is saying "money in the list" But the real thing is "Money in the relationship of the list" So make a good relationship with your prospects. Give them a good value. And serve them.

You can set up a contact page letting them know they can email you with any questions concerning the article they have just read. See if that helps things not going to spam.

Hi Barbara,
I like your question. I also like the responses you have gotten so far. They helped me out too. Have a good weekend.

Kbalker nailed it. Those services are the best and the most user friendly!

I am with Tezsie, thank you for this :)

Thanks for asking this.

Hi Barbara. I always liked free reports.

Where do you get them?

Well I think you should probably write one yourself. You are a good writer. I like your websites.

Thanks, I'll see what I can come up with.

Hi Barbara, The most used services are Aweber and Getresponse.

I have created a description of both services on my website that you might find helpful. (Don't click on the links inside the articles as I have inserted affiliate links!) :)

What you can offer is a Useful eBook, a weekly newsletter or a sort of training that you can send through emails to keep engaged with your audience.

GetResponse:

Aweber:

I'm currently using Aweber, but I'm thinking of changing to Getresponse as it has more features and support.

Hope it helps

Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks so much, I'll check it out. Since I haven't created something to give, it's difficult.
