What is Email Marketing?

Email marketing, at its most fundamental level, suffices when a blog owner disseminates important updates to clients about their products or services via email. As a matter of facts, a deeper definition goes farther than that.

Email marketing is the most prominent way for any business owner to build bonds with their clients. Literally, email marketing is a more integrated system of communication than paid adverts or even socializing.

It’s an undeviating or first-hand connection between a blog owner and an email opt-in subscriber (your readers/clients). This establishes the strongest relationship between the both of you, being a prominent way to grow your business and increase traffic, conversions & sales.

And it works effectively or perfectly to increase conversions and sales no matter what your niche might be.

You might, at the moment, be a new college degree holder who is thinking about the future and, therefore, considering starting a full-time freelancing business alongside building out an online brand that will bring about an exciting and productive life in the nearest future.

Maybe you are a full-time mom at home who is currently on retirement and now trying to create an ideal and productive online business.

Or perhaps you are an intense content writer who is passionate about building a location-free business that gives you the flexibility and independence towards creating long-term projects you enjoy working on at your own pace.

Email marketing will definitely make you a living online no matter what the nature or level of your business or career you’re currently building and you can leverage the free email marketing platforms to grow an ideal email list.

An example of such an email marketing platform that offers a free plan to users includes MailChimp. It allows up to 2000 contacts for free and you can send up to 10000 emails monthly without spending a dime.

What is the best email marketing app? Does most people use MailChimp that is recommended? or do others use something else. I am looking into starting an email list.
Thoughts?

Hi, the majority here use Aweber it is free for the first 500 (five hundred) subscribers. Aweber is affiliate marketing friendly.

Hi, I use Aweber and have found that Aweber is a good solution to start out with, because of their free plan.

I have tried Getresponse and Convertkit, which are good tools too. But they will charge you each month, they don´t have a free plan.

Among the three, I find Aweber the easiest to use as a newbie.

This is a spam free zone Israel. We do not allow any links on the WA blog.

Please remove the links

Hey Derek, thanks for visiting! Going by the rules here at WA for creating training, blog posts or comments as stated in the resource below, it's allowed that a link may be posted so far it is not intended to sell anything but just out of the act to help someone. If you check the links to MailChimp and ConvertKit that I posted, you'll find that they contain no affiliate links at all but are meant for readers who may want to set up their email campaigns using MailChimp or ConvertKit as suggested in the training. And if you check the rest of the other links used across the training, you'll find that they are all incoming internal links that point my readers to certain helpful and related resources within WA, not links that link to external sites at all. An example of such links is found in very many of the training that I've created so far in this community which Carson has approved for me in the past. An example is a resource below: Also, pay particular attention to "Rule 4" of the resource above which categorically states that a link may be used out of the act to help, not to sell. So, check properly all of the links I used in this training if any contains spam, affiliate or referral link and kindly let me know while I also forward this to Carson and Kyle to help look into this as well.

Thanks for your contributions!

Hello Derek, I've just forwarded this whole issue to Kyle. So, let's wait for his response. I'll surely get back to you once he has responded. Thanks!

Hey Derek, how are you there? I've just brought to you my findings from Kyle on the issue of posting links on the WA blog or elsewhere within the community.

As I mentioned in my first response to your comment, links can be posted according to "Rule 4" of the "Spam is a No-No" resource, not with the intention of selling anything to anyone at all, but with the act to help someone.

I asked Kyle himself shortly after I received your comment on this tutorial and the response from Kyle is found in the image posted below stating that links can be used within WA so far it's complementary to the particular training.

The second aspect has to do with the use of links pointing readers to external sites or tools, not with intention to sell, but with the act to help, though Kyle added one thing saying such a link may not be used once it's asking people to pay but can be posted here at WA once it's a free tool or site. With respect to this explanation, I unlinked ConvertKit because it doesn't offer free plans for users.

But, there is nothing like posting spam links at all in any of my training resources as you referred to in your last comment. Thanks so greatly for your contributions, friend!

My mistake or should I say misunderstanding.

Not at all, my friend! You tried to straighten me lest I went against any posting rule unconsciously. This is something that I really appreciated because I saw the mind with which you did it. So, Derrek, I remain grateful. Please, rock on in the online world. Look forward to seeing your future accomplishments!
