Ezine Director

.
Got a magic-related newsletter ? Do you have an idea for a newsletter, but just aren't sure what you need to mail it out, how to mail it out, or how much it will cost to mail it out?

I am going to recommend two systems. You can set either one up for Free. They will give you a bit of html code to put on your site to generate a subscribe button. The subscribers will automatically be stored in your system, and you can mail out up to 500 free newsletters each month.

Of course, you can mail out however many you're willing to pay for.... but I'm guessing you won't have 500 subscribers from day one..

The first is EZINE DIRECTOR ( http://ezinedirector.com ). Your first 500 emails are free each month. After that you get 2000 for $7.75 a month or 16,000 for about $ 15.00 a month. This is the BEST price, with the MOST features I have found ANYWHERE...

Here are the features...

  • compliance with CAN-SPAM & Sender Policy Framework (SPF)-
