After having a dozen different attempts at this fail...I would really, really like it the software company I use almost exclusively would create a program that would help idjuts like myself create and maintain email and web-based newsletters.


I've tried several templates and have frankly been disgusted by other sites...and I've always come back to what I know and trust which is you guys.

Thanks.

Yeah!

I think one that will allow you to email a link to a newsletter page, would be great. Because I know that many times I send out newsletters, to only have servers bounce them back. But if I do a plain simple text email to several users they seem to get it.

It might be hard to create something that will work effectively with all the spam stuff that has been going on and the more restricted email servers.

But I sure like to see something on the same lines.

Ya, making a newsletter page as part of the website and sending e-mails with the link seems to get the most distribution through the spam filters, also by including your google analytic or equivalent stuff you can see the response to your newsletter to gauge if your message is getting to the reader.

I love free solutions :)

While you're waiting to see if CC will do this, check out MailChimp if you haven't already, it's a pretty easy to use system, tons of themes already there for your use and it's free for up to 3000 mailings per month.

Nice share Jo Ann. Using Constant Contact right now, but this looks really great. :)
