Autoresponders

There are a lot of autoresponders out there, but the most popular and most trusted autoresponder is Aweber because you can do a lot of things with it that other autoresponders can’t do.

Plus, most people set up their system specifically to incorporate Aweber into the marketing, so it’s not  uncommon for people with other autoresponders to encounter frustration in trying to use their autoresponder with a marketing system that is usually designed with Aweber in mind.  I will go ahead and leave two of the more common autoresponders from what I have seen people use.

Aweber

Like I mentioned, Aweber is likely the most popular autoresponder out there.  You can use a 30 day trial version for $1 and then the price goes up to $19/month for 500 subscribers.  This allows you to create numerous campaigns of which each campaign, and you can custom build your opt-in web forms.  Building the web forms are easier and more customizable than GetResponse.

Pricing Structure:

(price per month/subscribers)

$19 = 0-500     ($16/month if paid annually)
$29 = 501-2500
$49 = 2501-5000
$69 = 5001-10000
$149 = 10001-25000  (Call Aweber for pricing over 25000)

GetResponse

GetResponse is probably the second most mentioned autoresponder that people talk about. The interface isn’t as nice as Aweber and there might be a slightly higher learning curve.  It does provide a better monthly plan ($15/month for 1000 subscribers) but you don’t have as many features as Aweber does.  It does, however, provide a free 30 day trial that does NOT require a credit card, which is unlike Aweber.  GetResponse also has Video Email Marketing, Online Surveys, and an iPhone app.
