Can @getresponse and @simongrabowski please control their rogue affiliates? We continue to see spam posts from throw-away accounts on various social media platforms shilling the service.

Hey @getresponse your website is down. I think you should stop your ad first and check what's the issue

Frequently Asked Questions

With Getresponse, you can send unlimited newsletters to 500 contacts free of cost. It also lets you connect your domain during the 30-day free trial. But without domain warmup and tracking analytics, this free trial is quite limiting for small businesses. A better alternative would be to sign up with Mailmodo. Besides unlimited templates and campaigns, it also provides you the complete analytics suite. Track opens, clicks, bounce, submissions, and unsubscribes at no cost.

If you're an individual looking to start a newsletter, then Getresponse is a suitable email marketing platform for you. During the 30-day free trial, you can experiment using the drag-and-drop creator and predesigned email templates. But if you're a small business looking to kickstart email marketing, use other Getresponse alternatives. Mailmodo, for example, lets you track your emails, improve your deliverability, and warm up your domain to help you get more opens, clicks, and subscribes.

Emails from GetResponse are known to land in the Promotions tab in the user's inbox. Besides, its limited pricing plans and poor deliverability encourage users to look for alternatives. Email marketing platforms like Mailmodo offer expert deliverability consultation to ensure your emails reach your customers' inboxes every time. Tap into the Mailmodo SMTP, that’s consistently warmed up for higher email deliverability.

Yes, GetResponse is fairly easy to use. But for high-growth companies and non-eCommerce organizations, it is not the best choice because it has limited features, and its drag-and-drop builder is not intuitive. Mailmodo is a suitable GetResponse alternative because it has rich media design capabilities with a live preview. You can also add AMP widgets using the WYSIWYG editor to make your emails look visually appealing.

You can send unlimited newsletters to 10,000 subscribers with GetResponse at $64.78 monthly. GetResponse costs enterprises that have more advanced requirements over $500 monthly. Their limited pricing plans often compel users to look for GetResponse alternatives, with Mailmodo being the preferred choice of many. Mailmodo's (pricing plans)[https://www.mailmodo.com/pricing/) are more affordable as compared to GetResponse.

To ensure that the GetResponse data you wish to keep will still be accessible when the transfer is complete, import contact information into Mailmodo. Make sure you only import clean lists. Send an email to an engaged list immediately for testing purposes.
