The G-Mailer I use this little script for sending my newsletter and other advertisemts
and promotional materials to my list The script is very small, less than 20k but extremely POWERFUL as you'll see in a moment.
So it's completely portable, light-weight and can go with you to any hosting provider you want and you don't need a team of tech experts to help you set it up on your hosting account. But... it's also a very powerful script. It allows you to upload your list with one click. In one test I did I easily loaded a list of 23,119 into the script without a problem. I'm not sure what the max number is, but it's powerful enough for most ezine publishers. You can also run more than one instance of the script for split testing, etc... It will also allow you to personalize each and every message sent. For example if you have a subscriber named "John". You can include his name anywhere in the message you want. If you want to remind him that he signed up from IP "206.134.54.123" you can also include that in the message and it will automatically 'Merge' each field into each message you send. To collect the IP address of each subscriber, I use this Autoresponder And you can include up to 12 custom fields for merging. You could include the persons mailing address, phone number or other identifying info so they know you are not sending them spam. Another great thing about this script is that it allows you to send each message on a 'delay'... this is useful, for example, if you are on a shared server. You do not want to over-stress the server if you're sending a lot of emails at one time. You can set the delay at 3 seconds, 9 seconds or any amount you want. This is also important for getting your messages delivered to AOL,
Hotmail and Yahoo subscriber accounts. These email providers will block
your message if you send them one after another, so by setting a delay
In recent test more than 88% of the mail sent with my script were delivered - compared to only 47% with a program that delivers mail from my desktop. This script also has a 'cloaking' feature that I only reveal to the people who want to use the script. As long as you use a valid email address when sending your mail, a valid method of 'opting' out of your list and include your physical mailing address in the body of the message then you're Can-SpM compliant. Again, I use this Autoresponder to collect my clinets bacause it allows me to make the unsubscribe process automatic. This script may NOT ever be used for spa m. Spam is wrong, and un-ethical. This script is for legitimate ezine publishers who want a 'simple to use', 'simple to setup' portable 'carry with them' script to personalize their mailings to their opt-in subscribers and want to get more of them delivered, especially to their AOL, Hotmail and Yahoo subscribers. This script will work on any
host that supports PHP 4.03 or higher... One last feature of this script makes it even more powerful: Split testing. Let's say you have a list of 5,000 and you want to test two different emails. There is a 'Max email' setting that allows you to create your message, and if you enter 2,500 into the "Max email" setting the program will stop after the first 2,500 emails have been sent. Then you can paste your second message into the script and press 'send'
to deliver your second message to the remaining 2,500. The script will
automatically pick-up where it left off with your new message, instead
of your I created a 'home-made' video of the script in action and you can see it here:
If you think this is something you can use in your online business the cost of the script is just $47 with Master Resale Rights. Order here:
I will sell this eventually for $97 with some bonuses,
etc.. but for now you can try it out cheaply. I can't really provide
support if it doesn't work on your server, but I'll tell you about a
hosts I know it will work. It is Like I said, I developed the script for my own use and use it everyday in my own business... this mailing was done with the script :-) I hadn't really thought of releasing it to the 'public' but I thought you might find it useful too. I'm only sharing it right now with you, as a subscriber. You are responsible for using it responsibly. This will not maintain your list - it's a mailer only. ONE MORE BONUS: You get MASTER Resale Rights to the script! GuerillaMailer V1.0 for Ezine Publishers (Powerful PHP Script + MASTER Resale Rights) Download Includes: Script, text message with recommended hosts, and flash tutorial video and Master Rights certificate. Anyway, take a look and let me know if it's something you think would be useful to you and your business. Yours in Prosperity |
