newsletter plug in

Hi there,

Having worked with Mailchimp in the past, I can assure that they have everything you stated, except for the ‘not be flagged as spam’… that one is just impossible. Some ISP mark everything as spam and then you also have people who sign up and then forget that they did and manually mark you as spam.

You may aslo want to look at Campaign Monitor. Their template system rocks and their code is easy enough to add to a widget or template. You don’t need a plugin.

Good luck

Hello there,
I’m Ben one of the 4 guys behind wysija.

1/By professional you mean corporate style ? Can you be specific on those issues you’re having with wysija maybe we can improve that in a future release.

Otherwise everything seems possible with wysija apart from the fifth point, not being flagged as a spam. Though we wrote a little guide to help you avoid that, those are good guidelines you should follow : https://support.wysija.com/knowledgebase/6-golden-rules-to-avoid-being-labeled-a-spammer/

The advantages of wysija over MC are that :
1/you manage your newsletters straight from your WordPress panel.
2/In the future Wysija will integrate better with third party plugins while it will be difficult with external service such as MC
3/it is either free(less than 2000 subscribers) or cheaper to send with wysija.

Read this little case study explaining why one of our users preferred wysija over “the big boys” (MC, Aweber, etc..)

Hope this helps you in your decision, and let us know about those issues you’re having on https://support.wysija.com !

Cheers
Ben

Thanks to you both! Ben – I’ve never worked with Wysija and while it seems like it has everything – absolutely everything – I’m not loving any of the templates. That’s all.
Thoughts on Jetmail, anyone?
Thank you again.
Brett

Thanks for your feedback Brett!
We should provide more templates for sure!
