Top 10 autoresponders & email marketing tools
You can incorporate these auto responders into your website and leverage the full potential of email marketing.
So here is the list of top 10 autoresponders.
1. Get Response
As you know none of the autoresponders are free. You need to pay a fee for incorporating them into your website. First autoresponder is Get Response. 
The pricing for Get Response starts from $15 for up to 1000 contacts per month, for 5000 contacts it is $45 and for 10,000 its $65.
Get response comes with all the loaded features that a modern auto responder must have. You can import mailing list, demographic segmentation to identify database then the account health meter and require opt in.
So it is fully loaded, for pricing and more. Visit: www.getresponse.com
2. iContact
Really great software, in fact better than Get Response but we put iContact after Get Response because price is high. 
It starts with $14 a month for up to 500 contacts. For 5000 contacts it is $47 and up to 10,000 it is $74.
Price is higher but for higher price you get better features like dashboard ease of use is excellent compared to any other software out there in the market.
It is loaded with all the features like Get Response.

3. AWeber
If you see by number of users for a particular autoresponder service then AWeber beats all other auto responders. It has been in the business for a while now and every email marketer knows about this service. 
The service starts with $19 for up to 500 emails and for 10,000 it is $69. The best feature of AWeber is seamless integration as it integrates seamlessly with WordPress, Facebook, PayPal and other programs.
I would recommend AWeber if you have a website with 10,000 to 20,000 daily pageviews. It works well if you want to manage a huge database of customers.
You can start with free 30 day trial and asses the software.

4. MailChimp
MailChimp has grown rapidly in last 2 to 3 years. The service starts with $10 for up to 500 contacts per month. For 5000 contacts it is $50 and for 10,000 it is $75 per month. 
Mail Chimp has all the basic features of any other autoresponder but it does not have a feature like demographic segmentation or account health meter.
Moreover dashboard ease of use is OK and not as good as i Contact or Get Response. Good for mobile or handheld devices.

5. Constant Contact
Constant Contact auto responder is fifth in our list and it is quite costly compared to above mentioned services. In fact if you are a small marketer with one or two website then Constant Contact is bit expensive for you. 
It starts with $20 for up to 500 contacts per month compared to Mail Chimps’ $10 for 500 contacts per month. For 5000 contacts it is $55 and for 10,000 it is $85. So you could see the price is very high.
As far as features are concerned it is quite mediocre.

6. Campaigner
Campaigner’s best thing is it is quite cheap compared to other services mentioned in this article. 
For 500 and 1000 emails it is only $10, so it is better to start with 1000 emails. For 5000 contacts it is $40 and for 10,000 it is $55.
As far as features are concerned it gives you all of them, even demographic segmentation. Dashboard is little bit cluttered but overall the service is really good with all the features.

7. Benchmark Email
In fact Benchmark should be first in our list because of amazing features at very competitive pricing. 
For 500 and 1000 contacts per month it is absolutely free. For 5000 contacts and 1000 contacts price is $46.95 and $73.95 respectively.
As far as features are concerned they are in comparison with iContact or Get Response. The dashboard ease of use is quite good.
I recommend email marketers to use its 1000 contacts per month because it is free.

8. Mad Mini
Mad Mini’s price is very competitive compared to other services. It starts with $10 for 500 contacts per month and $12 for 1000 contacts. 
For 5000 contacts it is $27 and for 10,000 it is $42. Relatively cheaper than other top auto responders in the list.
If you see its feature then it has all the basic features of a good auto responders but it lacks ease of using the dashboard. For more visit
