Is a free autoresponder service actually free? |

Autoresponders are very valuable time- saving tools which can automate most of your tasks. This leaves more time to concentrate on creating the content for your newsletter. An autoresponder can automatically personalize all your email messages, handle subscribe and unsubscribe requests and send messages on a specific date or at a certain time.
There are many autoresponder
services to choose from. The average price per month is between $10 and $20.
You will also find many free autoresponder services when you search on the
internet. When I think about the term, free autoresponder service, it reminds
me of a phrase my former employer said often, “There is no such thing as a free
lunch.” Even though there is no monetary cost for using a free autoresponder
service, you are obligated to run a text or banner ad at the end of every
message you send. This means they are sending advertising to your subscribers
and customers.
This could hurt your
credibility and readers might be hesitant to receive your newsletter. Another
downside with using them is sometimes these banner ads will cause your
newsletter to be filtered with spam filters and your newsletter may never reach
your readers.
