Well Friends, I need your opinion on MailChimp vs. Mad Mimi. I need a freebie autoresponder for my Amazon affiliate site C&FC. But, I really don't need any of the junkie pop-ups and stuff that is sometimes associated with freebies that sends readers into a tail spin as soon as they click on the "Sign Up Now" button. Or, is List Wire better... I don't know and I'm not familiar whatsoever with any of these.

Sure do appreciate your opinion on them,

Randy

I am using MailChimp for mailing lists. I create and send mails through MailChimp interface and have no issues whatsoever.

I am yet to try the WordPress front end part of it - plugin, subscriptions, ...

Since I don't have more that 20.000 recipients I'll stick with it for now. Interface is clean and clear, reports are quite usable, ...

Don't know about Mad Mimi ...

Awesome info, Ervin! Really appreciate your info here!

I actually use Aweber myself and they are very good. I cannot review on these other ones as have not used them. I chose Aweber because I heard reviews they are the best out there and I am happy with the great training provided to set up to do email marketing. I don't mind paying so I am not going to be limited to the growth I would like to achieve. All the best in choosing what works for you. :)))

Thank ya' Abigail... I'll probably wind up with Aweber when I'm at the point of paying for one. I've heard over and over that it is the best!

I don't know which is better, or worse, but try to stay with one auto-responder that will handle all your needs. Less trouble if you have to move DNS and other information around. And some Auto-Responders that are free will limit your usage.
Just a thought Double Tap. Hope that helps.
Have a great week................Frank

Some great thoughts there Frank... sure do appreciate it!

Wish you well DoubleTap..........Frank

I haven't used any yet, but the best reviews I've seen are for Aweber. Good Luck with your choice!

Thank ya' Carla.. I'm hearing the same thing!!!

I had a horrible time with mail chimp. The plugin never would recognize that I had everything set up on the site. Mad Mimi I have now and have everything set up but I cant figure out how to make my autoresponse work. I had to step away from it for a few days lol. DON'T use Listwire. I signed up but never used to because someone told me they sell your email lists. Before I even got a list I was receiving spam myself. You can also look into plugins. I've had a few members tell me that's what they use and works fine.
I plan to go back and look at some when I'm done being mad at autorepsonders. lol

Wow, sorry to hear about all your problems with it, Angela. But... that's exactly what I need to hear about. Sure do thank ya'!

Kyle recommends aweber. I use mailchimp but only because I had it before getting into WA. Once I hit the magic number where MC starts charging, I'll switch to aweber. Hope this helps and God Bless! ~Cathy

Thankin' ya' Cathy... Aweber will definitely come later when more cash comes in! Blessings, kiddo!!!

I chose MailChimp 'cuz I like monkies ;).... Seriously, since I'm just starting, I figured to keep it simple. If I can, I'll change it later.

Don't know about the monkey thing Terry but I do like your thinking! Thanks much!

SO far Daniel has been researching for a free autoresponder and has not found one yet.
This is an ongoing conversation we have been having on his blog, read the comments.

Thank ya' Shawn... I'd been following it and must have deleted the post email. Sure seems like there has to be at least one decent one available, huh?

Anyone finds one please share the find :)

I only know MailChimp and it's great...not the cheapest once you build a list tho...

Another point for MailChimp... sure do thank ya', Ansley!

I say MailChimp

Thank ya' Julian!
