Automatic Responder Email Software

To Rent or Buy

Should you rent or buy automatic responder email software for your website, to capture, build and automatically email your subscriber list ?

Automatic responder email software will enable you to collect names and email addresses of people who want to sign up to your newsletter or offer.

It becomes a necessity if you want to automatically build and email a subscriber list.

Automatic responder email software will also enable you to send people messages on scheduled dates or at timed intervals.

Well if you're at the decision stage, the answer is probably not a no brainer, more a case of what suits you.

If you want to get a feel for automatic responder functions and to use one, your best option may be to sign up to an automatic responder service.

Two of the main providers are aweber.com and getresponse.com, but there are others. The cost for this type of automatic responder service is around $15 to $20 per month.

Another choice is to go with a web host who offers automatic responder email software as part of the account.

• But beware, not all web hosts who advertise an autoresponder actually have one that will truly do what you need.

Most automatic responders offered by web hosts are only any use for sending "out of office or on vacation messages."

• You should check before signing up with a new web host if its a fully functional automatic responder that would enable you to run your email marketing.

Many of the web hosts who offer true automatic responder email software will do so using autoresponderplus, a script that runs on their server.

Your final choices regarding an automatic responder system are to use a free automatic responder script you may find on the Internet or to buy automatic responder email software.

Using a free automatic responder script may look appealing, it's free, but you should also consider that most of them come as is, with no support and frequently poor instructions and documentation.

• If you run into trouble with a free automatic responder script and you most likely will at some stage, then you're on your own.

Good automatic responder email software is likely to cost you anywhere from $100 to $700, but you pay that only once, not monthly.

Once you know what you really want from an automatic responder, buying one will pay for itself in the long term compared to renting.

Buying automatic responder email software also means you have free support and upgrades to the product, normally at least for the first year and in some rare cases, for life.
