Email Autoresponders – A Simple Way To Choose The Best
Alexa rankings show the most visited sites on the internet. Of course, there are some limitations with an Alexa ranking. The traffic calculations are based on feedback from users who have the Alexa toolbar installed in their Internet Explorer browser. Operating systems and browsers apart from Windows and Internet Explorer are not included. That being said, the Alexa rating still gives a reasonable indication of a web site’s popularity, even if the figures are not exact. How does this help you in choosing an email autoresponder? Generally, products become very popular because they WORK and offer the best VALUE for money! Companies generally build a huge client base because they offer good support and excellent customer service. There will always be some clients who get a raw deal, perhaps due to a run of unfortunate “mishandlings” which is not typical of the company. You can sometimes see these kind of complaints on user forums. However, if you see a negative comment, dig deeper. Is it an isolated occurrence while the majority of comments are favorable or are there many complaints? Just put the name of the autoresponder in your favorite search engine with the word “complaints” after it to check. When it comes to email autoresponders, two stand out way above the crowd. They score very highly with Alexa. They are 1) Aweber and 2) GetResponse. (See resource box below) How can you decide which email autoresponder to choose? Allow yourself a little time as it is difficult to switch to another company once you have started setting up your messages and the client list has started to grow. Obviously the best way is to try them both. Each company offers a demo or free account. Use it and get to know the features. When it comes to features why not make a list of the most important ones you need for your business, put them in a priority order, and then compare the two providers to see which you feel easier with. Often, in cases like this where two products are so similar, it can come down to whether you personally find the menus, interface, layout, even colors, intuitive and easy to use. You will get a ‘gut’ feel after using each of them for a brief time. Use this simple method, the Alexa approach, to narrow down the choice basically to two email autoresponders. Take a little time to assess them both, check your ‘gut’ feeling, then make an informed decision you won’t later regret.
