Great to hear from you Afzal.

Thanks for the detail Paul.

Welcome, Luthfar.

Ezekiel, Mailerlite and any ESPs expect you to use their system with disciplined marketing practices. The moment you break this; none of them will attend to help you on getting them fixed. So, so learn about the best practices and then apply them for a profitable use.

Hey Pamm, thanks for highlighting the requirement. Until Instagram doesn’t allow direct posting of IG updates; so everyone needs to take the same approach.

Hey Priya, you can schedule demo from Wrike website.

That’s great to hear Chinnaiah.

Welcome, Amy.

John, I would suggest invest in content on regular basis and monetize through social media. This has been my winning strategy at many places.

Sorry to hear about this Donna.

Agree to you Joseph.

Welcome Kevin 🙂

Walter, yes Callpage has WordPress plugin, check here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/callpage/

Annie, you can opt for SocialPilot or Sendible; both are great option for small business.

Joshua, Getresponse is for marketing team whereas customer.io is for bacend communication automation; mostly used by IT/ product team to automate the emails/ communication.

No Jennifer, only drawback I can think of is, it will save your time!

Janet, it is all about targeting the relevant email subscribers. If the business is using opt-in emails and they have proper email list hygiene implemented; then it will work out really well.

Thanks for the appreciation Jose.

Chris, Google analytics is for website traffic and quality measurement where as SEMrush is for marketing analysis which can help you with strategy planning and improving incoming traffic.

Robinson, we can divide the content website metrics for 3 different type of business:
1. Content for B2C websites
2. Content for B2B websites
3. Content for Publishers
All of the above 3 have different kind of target audience and 3 different targets itself.

Thanks for your views Cather.

Rachel, you can use 2checkout for more than 100+ countries whereas PayPal has got restrictions in some countries for domestic payment transfers.

Hey Matthew! Thanks for the view. Yes, you are absolutely right.

ANkit, Basecamp was a great product for business, but now there are many more alternatives available, which are far better when compared to Basecamp.

Thanks Samantha!

Hello Reed,
Thanks for reply. You can find list of the companies who are using Bitrix24 here: https://www.bitrix24.com/testimonials/

Agree to you Sunny.

Completely agree to you Davis. Thanks for writing about your views.

Stephen, these are industry numbers.

For overall media; the visual contents are more than 66%.

Yes Meeta; there is difference of price along the alternatives of SEMrush.

Happy to hear about this Charles 🙂

Great to hear Emily; that you liked SpyFu!

I have Spyfu; it is great tool, where as recently I have heard a lot SERankings; it will take some time for me to try this tool. Others, I will trying soon. I feel each of the tool; whether free or paid, they have one unique feature; which everyone likes to use.

Thanks for the views Alan 🙂

Theresa, other tolls are unbounce and instapages, which you can also give a try.

Thanks Albert!

Thanks Shahidul 🙂

Phillip, Getsitecontrol is places on website to capture email address of the interested visitors as subscribers. Now after you visit homepage from the Facebook page, the website owner gets an additional opportunity to get information of the interested visitor.

Sean, the keywords which has more than 2 words are usually referred as long tail keywords. For $27 at wordtracker, you get results for 5000 keywords, which also includes long tail keywords.

Eliz, Aweber, MailChimp and Getresponse are market leaders currently. And all these tools provider 3 different flavors and offering to their end customers.

Barbara, once you have started getting subscribers, you should start using SendinBlue. This is an ideal strategy I always follow.

Mukesh, it’s my pleasure to hear that you would like to start your website on WordPress. After you are done with website design, do try out wpforms on your website.

Abe, both of the tools are great at sending email blast. But, before you start, your email list must be clean.
If you are looking at price comparison, you must check Amazon SES prices for email delivery with EasySendy Pro.

Grey, Hotjar doesn’t work for Facebook page. It is built only to be used on website and certain apps.

Joseph, thanks for the suggestions. PicMonkey is web and mobile based application only.

Hey Abhishek, thanks for the questions-
We tested all Divi at 4 Mbps connection, yes we do recommend to use Divi 3.0 builder. Yes, the mobile responsive version of final website is available.

Thanks for the comment, you can start using Canva for free now, and later you can decide if it suits your requirement.

Jimmy, this is online web alternative of Photoshop which is far cheaper than licensed version of Photoshop.

Christina, I will be covering more google crm alternatives in coming weeks under new blog topics. Do subscribe to our news letter and you will get update.

Anthony, as mentioned in this post, in first paragraph, we are using 2Checkout in one and more projects, so we covered this post. Yes, regarding cost, one essentially need to compare it against all other required features of the payment gateway.
So, you can compare them from above mentioned blog.

Kishore, all the players including Optinmonster, thrive and boom have one or more unique features. So, each of these are very much exclusive for end users. So, there is no sign where one can swipe out any other player.

Harry, you are absolutely right about the uses of text in marketing. Yes, I do also completely believe in making the foundation of marketing first with text, then start with visual marketing materials, which ultimately multiplies the impact of overall marketing.

Hey Miller, this is the review of MailerLite itself!!

Thanks for the comment Mark.
Yes MailChimp is available as per paid service. They have mentioned their prices on their website.

Yes Krishna, you are absolutely right about this setup. Configure and start your website on WordPress and integrate it with your WishPond account in order to get end to end management of all your leads.
Yes, WishPond do take credit card information to get started with free 14 days trials.

Yes Simoni, yes Campayan you is also a great email marketing tool available for marketers. You can give this a try.

Jose, changing email marketing system completely depends on the requirement you are having and what all features being provided by the system. In this case, MailChimp is more geared towards serving B2C customer requirements, whereas Getresponse is best suited for B2B marketers.

Thanks for the detailed observation Abhinav and giving a detail about latest practices.

Checking it Maha!
Thanks for the comment.

Thanks Ankur!

Thanks for the comment and adding more information to this post Ross. Yes, I completely agree with you over the geography and time zone.

Yes Steven, there are many useful features in LeadFuze which takes major lead compared to any other alternates.

Agree to you Lori. You should get started with GetSiteControl.

Hey Martin, Yes Instapage is really good alternative to Leadpages. A/B test of landing pages are required, when a marketer need to test and optimize the performance of their existing lading page. Using A/B split test; they can change and optimize different elements of landing pages and see how the changes can impact their conversion to get high return.

Thanks for the comment Kelly and great to hear about your view on Basecamp.
I hope, you should have found better alternatives to be used in place of Basecamp.

Compared to any other CRM, ProsperWorks custom built their features, keeping Gmail users in mind.

Thanks for sharing the experience Jose. Yes, there are set of websites who are doing chat widow pop-up instantly; which distracts the focus of end user.

Thanks for the comment Mike!
Great to hear that you are happy.

Sandra, sorry to hear about your experience with Pixlr; Yes, PicMonkey is great alternative to Photoshop. Yes, it does have web version available on all device. Which definitely makes it a great tool.

Virginia, I would say Picmonkey is the top competitor to Canva and GetStencil is another great to use as Canva alternative.

Yes Kelly, Hotjar and alternatives do add many more features to test and improve website performance.

Nelson; thanks for your views about Wishpond. Looking at the price and features which is being offered by Wishpond; I completely feel, you are going to get much more return on this price.

Hey Roy, SEMrush and alternatives are for digital marketing professionals and marketing team.

Thanks a lot for the comment Richa!

Kathy, I would suggest you to use WpForms only; as I could see that, it is very active under development and are adding many new features.

Catherine, I would recommend you to use GetDrip and second opinion would be to use GetResponse; both of them are great tools.

Yes Rahul; SEMrush alternatives does give these information in one single screen only!

Welcome Jose!

Aaditya, Webhook for LeadsBridge come under most of plans; do give this a try.

Thats great to Mitchell; that now you are more focused on capturing opt-in emails. Which plugin did you try?

Exactly Brenda.

Hey Anshul,
Great to hear that you liked the post. Do have a read through other posts.

Hello Andrey,

Here are the answers:
1)Pls tell me – is EasySendy Pro have API?
Answer: Yes EasySendy Pro has API- Have a look through this link: https://easysendy.com/api/
Pro has email list management and campaign creation API.

2) We want to use it ofr drip compaign, can be EasySendy Pro used for that?
Answer: Using Pro you can setup time based email autoresponders. Currently other than time; other triggers are not available for email campaigns.

3) do you have cases for mass campaigns and it’s results for sales?
Answer: Email campaign results largely depends on your email sending practices, delivery servers used, email content and email sending reputation. Depending on these, various industries and customers get email open rate from mere 1% to 80%+. From our end we can suggest you to use delivery servers like SendGrid, MailGun for best results.

Yes Vincent, Mailjet is another good alternative to MailChimp.

Hey Tilal,

PushPrime looks good. Could you please send more detail to me on my email?

You are welcome David!

Agree with you Mark!

Hello Bruno,

Here are few of the reasons; why I prefer to use paid apps than free one:
1. Paid apps have a more focused approach towards solving specific problems of the business; whereas free apps are more focused towards solving the common problem of everyone.
2. I feel skeptical about the sustainability of the free apps.

These were the two major reason; why I chose PushEngage over OneSignal.

That’s great to hear Aswani!
Do give Freshmarketer a try.

Completely agree with your suggestion Perez.
Yes, Facebook Lead Ads now perform with good conversion in few of the niche.

Agree Jimmy!
Thanks for the information about Wrike.

Hey Tariq,

For multiple different domains you can start using EasySendy Pro as it can manage all of your multiple domain campaigns from one place. Further you can use any of the SMTP relays from Amazon SES, SendGrid, SparkPost and more.

Yes absolutely Shannon; GetResponse is another tool one can use for email marketing automation as alternative.

Yes Melissa, MailerLite is a great tool for mailing and has many more feature under pipeline; which will be coming near future.

Flores, you are absolutely right about this. You can schedule all these updates for your subscribers using Drip automation tool.

Agree to you Simmons 🙂

Thanks for the brief point Russell 🙂

Hello Gerard, thanks for the comment and adding information about new tool 🙂
Gerard, just a question.
The website mention about business emails from Linkedin only! Where is the mention about Twitter?

You can use online application like EasySendy Pro with Amazon SES integration to deliver emails at $1 for 10000 emails. This can be one of the suitable solution for your ecommerce service.

Yes Joseph, Thrivethemes team is very dynamic in releasing new features to their products. That is why you always get new options to try.

Agree Brandon!

Hey Marta, Thanks for the updated informaiton!
That’s great to hear from userengage.io; yes, CRM module can be a great fit for the end business.

Yes Rebecca, WordPress has taken website creation and landing page creation to the next level of ease.

Absolutely agree Eugene!
SendinBlue is working on this automation, did you try the latest email automation tool from SendinBlue?

Yes Shirley, payment gateway processing are quite country dependent, so before any business start using the recurring payment gateway, they first investigate all the available features in detail; tryout few of the options and then finalize.

Hey LeadFuze user,
Thanks for the comment. I new saw having this issue with LeadFuze account and majority of the data from Linkedin are very much valid. Although we use different emailing tool for sending followup sequences. And, this setup work like a charm. Do give a different emailer a try.

Yes Jean, Bitrix24 is good tool, I would say you should also give Teamwork and Wrike a try.

Yes Wanda, you are right. ClickFunnel is a good alternative of Leadpages which help you generate website quickly with lead generation forms.

Agree to you Jenkins!
Timely email communication is really very important.

Thanks for adding more detail to the post Ronald!

Agree to you Bobby 🙂

Megan, you are absolutely right about the Facebook integration. This is what Leadbridge does.

Yes Stephanie, Thrivetheme Leads has all the option which you are talking about; that’s why it is one of the top plugin for WordPress.

Yes Roosevelt, its a good strategy and WordPress form is most useful option.

Prashant, Amazon SES charges $100 for sending 1 Million emails.

Yes, Facebook lead ads really successful 🙂

Yes Dustin, SendinBlue is great all-in-one platform tool for marketing and sales to connect with customers over email and SMS. Recently, I tried SendinBlue automation; it looked good and has many convenient options for designing webflows for customer.

Kimberly, other than labeling it as a cheap solution, I would say MailerLite is great alternative to many email marketing solutions and has some features which are not available at other esps. So, uses find a great value in using MailerLite.

Yes Wilma, Drip definitely has real very simple list segmentation tool. You must give this a try; most of tasks will be automated with this simple builder.

Agree Kent! Also, looking more deep, Wrike is more flexible compared to Bitrix24.

Yes Vincent, price can be one of the reason why all are looking for hootsuite alternatives. Other than price, there can many other factors.

Gerald, for startups, Intercom actually simplified the unorganized customer details at one place. This helped them with simple automation and tracking of their customer activities. Not only this; it also helped to free a lot of man hours. So, the concept like this won.

Yes Christie, you can also do same. But make sure your bids are under limit. All the best with ads on twitter.

Great to about the Shafi!

Welcome Santuna!

Great to hear Michael; that you liked LeadFuze. Also, the value delivered is quite above than, what they charge for.

You are welcome Ruth; and great to hear that you liked SendinBlue 🙂

Albert, thanks for giving the valuable suggestion. I liked both Thrive leads and boom; did you tryout the latest version of thrive leads?

Stanley, yes you can do this inside Drip automation easily. You can choose a different email address when an email has not been opened by the previous subscriber. This is option is available when you use automation on 2 different email list. One on original and other alternate email list. Hope this helps.

Great to hear about this Emily 🙂
Do let me know how the integration worked for you.

Hey Sowmay, yes, you can easysendy.com website; they provide monthly subscription service.

Thats not good Geogore; I think there may be other reason; I think this should not happen. Could you please try again to get started with SendinBlue?

Elizabeth, most of the WordPress forms are responsive and mobile screen compatible; give this a try.

Yes Cara, GetResponse is also great email marketing tool and one of the very first email marketing tool which had landing pages.
By the way; now Drip also has free plan!

Nimesh, what features are you exactly looking for inside MailerLite?

Ethan, great to hear that you liked Leadfuze and going to use the same for your customer acquisition.

Yes Elijah, you can find customers for your business easily using LeadFuze. Don’t for to nurture them well before you start selling your service.

Thanks Foster 🙂

Hey Sarah, I didnot get what you wanted to convey. Could you please explain more?

You are welcome Fred!

I personally like both Thrive Leads and Bloom; also implemented them at different sites.

Yes Emma, you are right!
But Drift is quite new and is improving a lot day by day 🙂

Hello Ken,

As far as I know there is no trick to get Aamazon SES account. They are quite sensitive about account selection and allowing business to send email through the SMTP relay. If they are not approving your production access; then I would say, do ask them about these issues directly.

Thats great to hear Nazir 🙂

Thats great to hear Hitesh.

Yes, EasySendy Pro operates on top on transnational SMTP relays which also manage email list and email campaign.

Hey Andrew, currently these are paid templates.

Thats great to hear Alex!
I will try out Socialdraft tool.

Hey Shuchi,
You can find this link useful: https://sendy.easysendy.com/how-to-add-unsubscribe-and-webversion-links-to-emails-in-sendy/
If you are using same domain name for business and sending marketing emails, then you should send marketing emails to double optin. This is good practice.
For successful campaign you should have following:
1. Have all right technology setup done for your sending domain name. Can follow this guide: https://easysendy.com/docs/right-technology-setup-guide-high-email-delivery/
2. Send email with good content, rich in text, donot use spammy and promotional words a lot and try to engage with your subscribers.
Have above practices in place; your email open rate will improve drastically.

Hey Kelly, what kind of email campaigns are you planning to run?

Good Tool Nibha!

Hey Firoz,
The email / domain name which you added in your SES account has good email sending reputation previously? If they don’t have; then Amazon SES will decline your account.

Shekhar, to use EasySendy Pro you need to have your own Amazon SES account.

Yes Lawrence, you are right. Both are equally great in their domain as automation service provider.

Drip is definitely a wonderful tool for email marketing automation.

Welcome Philip 🙂

Thats great to hear Juan. Hope, WpForms matches your expectation.

Welcome Mark, EasySendy Pro also have many options to use other smtp relays like Mandrill, SendGrid, Sparkpost, Leadersend, Dyn, Elasticemail, MailGun, SendinBlue, MailJet, TipiMail and MailerQ 🙂

Hey Staci,

Looking at your requirement, I must say you should give Wrike a try.

You are welcome Cloud:)

Thats great to hear Prasanjit 🙂

Hey Amira, great to hear that you have tried both the solutions. Let me know incase you plan to try more alternatives for Mailchimp automation.

Do give WpForms a try on your WordPress website.

Hey Kshitij, yes you can apply as an individual at 2Checkout. This means you need to be sole proprietor.

Thank you Rohan for the addition 🙂

Hello Jacob,

Thanks for your interest in EasySendy service.
Currently EasySendy Sendy hosting service only hosts and maintains your Sendy instance on your behalf. And Sendy supports only Amazon SES SMTP relay.
But, we have another online application called EasySendy Pro, which connects with Amazon SES, Mandrill, SendGrid, Sparkpost, Leadersend, Elasticemail and MailGun SMTP relays and deliver outgoing emails.

Hey Mitesh,

You are absolutely right about the number of applications in market. Definitely, there’s a lot of options available. Best part is that; all the tools have different advantages that fit the requirement of variety of customers. If your email sending volume per month is below 100,000 then you can configure EasySendy Pro with SparkPost and can send emails completely for free.
Wish you all the best!

Hey Spencer,

The application looks great have good UI and features. Let me try the application 🙂

Hello Madi,

Sorry to hear about this issue with Sendy. Yes, at EasySendy Sendy Hosting, we faced the same issue. So, our plans only limit upto 15 emails per second. A a hosting service provider we can’t modify the code of Sendy.
So, in order to resolve these issue happening with Sendy, we recently launched complete separate platform, called EasySendy Pro. Which has following lead features:

One click register and launch the application online
No need of any license
Add your own domain name as tracking domain
Deep email list segmentation feature
Email sending speed support upto 120 emails per second
Add multiple SMTP relay servers, Amazon SES, Mandrill, SendGrid, Sparkpost, Leadersend, Elasticemail and MailGun
Smart autoresponder
Auto bounce and complaint handling setup, RSS/JSON feed emails, Google Analytics and WordPress integration

Hey Robert,

Thanks for the comment.
Do check our new service EasySendy Pro service, it has many features which are great to use as Mailchimp replacement.

Hey Coca,

Thanks for introducing SuiteDash.
I am going through this tool, and it looks promising. Keep up the great work 🙂

Thanks for reading my posts Ryan 🙂
You are most Welcome!

Hey Willy,
Why not use cloud SMTP relay services from Amazon SES, Mandrill, SendGrid, Sparkpost, Leadersend, Elasticemail or MailGun. They are much more reliable and great email deliveries.
Setting up own SMTP relays have own set of challenges.

Hey Ross,

Now Sendy supports PHP7, so its better to use it with new configuration. Its way too fast.
We struggled through old setup with HHVM, so, stopped using that configuration.

Thats great to hear Sam 🙂

Hey Preetish,

Thanks for the update. I am looking through the tool Teamwave, it appears promising.

Hey Jason,
Asana and Podio are great Basecamp alternatives.
