Hi All,

I'm trying to get someone to help me here, so I'm trying this forum hoping someone will respond LOL

Okay here it goes...

I started off with one ezine company that didn't have a lot of the features that are standard, so I started looking around.

I came across Constant Contact which I thought was a great company, excellent features, great customer service etc., but than I started to have problems logging in.

They tried to make it like it was my computer, but I wasn't having any other problems with any other site.

This also concerned me as the e-mail management company has to have excellent servers in order to ensure your ezines go out right after you send them.

So, I'm trying to research who is the next best thing. I think BCentral was mentioned, but I'm not even sure that is what I want & I was cared off when I learned MS owns it LOL

Constant Contact's site was excellent & really laid everything out, was colourful, so you know their templates were nice & I could read all the features they offered at a glance.

Does anyone have any recommendations on who is just as good as Constant Contact & has excellent servers?

Thanks so much & I hope everyone is having a great wknd.

On another note, I have this issues below...

I have a tons of e-mail addys saved up from my time online which is 6 yrs. now.

Most of the people conacted me personally thru dating sites etc, & I'm sure some would very interested in my new e-commerce site. I kept them knowing one day I would finally get my site launched LOL

I want to be able to either send them an e-mail introducing them to my site or asking them to join my ezine.

Last year people were telling me this is okay b/c there had been contact made between me & them at one point or another.

Today I'd like to hear suggestions on how to do this without causing any problems since all the new changes with spam.

There are just too many e-mails to do it one at a time (maybe 40,000 +), so I'd need a program that can gather all the e-mail addys, make sure there are no duplicates & send out a one time only e-mail. I don't even care if I have to do 100 every day just to space it out.

Than I would just delete the e-mail addys unless the person joined my ezine.

Any suggestions on how to do this, whether to get them to join my ezine or present my site or both?

Any suggestions on a program that will pull the e-mail addresses for me & send off an e-mail for me?

Thanks


Michelle
