Once signed up to an autoresponder service like Aweber, you will have access to an array of services that include list building tools, form generators, tracking, analytics and reports. The great thing about a system like this is that you don't have to worry about anything. You can simply create a new list, then paste the web form code on your web page, and you're done. The autoresponder will take care of the rest. Perhaps you want to provide a series of emails that are sent out once a week for 8 weeks. It's simple! All you have to do is create a follow-up sequence of email messages, save them in within your Aweber control panel, and each time a new visitor signs up to your mailing list they will be sent the 8 emails, all staggered at intervals that you choose.
The benefits of using a service like Aweber far out weigh the monthly fee.
