GetResponse is an excellent autoresponder service.
It offers all of the autoresponder features you would ever need. I especially like the fact that you can broadcast emails, so you can also use it to send out newsletters to your subscribers.
I also like the fact that there is no limit on the number of autoresponder emails you can send. At under $18 per month, GetResponse offers excellent value-for-money.
Virtually all of the top web marketing pros and super-affiliates use autoresponders. So if you're not, you should be. I highly recommend it! |

AutoResponse Plus is the best autoresponder software package I have come across.
It offers an amazing number of features - many of which aren't even offered by the best remotely-hosted autoresponder service providers. I really like the fact you have 100% control over every aspect of your mailing lists and email messages.
Although advertised as an autoresponder system, it is also perfect for managing standard newsletter campaigns.
It's no wonder that top web marketers strongly recommend AutoResponse Plus. I too highly recommend it to you, if you're looking for a low-cost, feature-packed autoresponder and mailing list management system! |

"AutoResponse Plus clearly is the closest thing I have found to the most perfect, feature-packed list management system on the market." - Marty Foley, ProfitInfo.
"The result so far, is that the e-mail broadcast has brought me in over $14,000 (US) of sales in less than a week!" - Nick James, Power-Tech Associates.
