johnnyboy16 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Hi everyone, I'm new to developing and was curious about Email marketing platforms such as Aweber or MailChimp. I understand the marketing benefits and the analytical data they can provide for say a newsletter or a new product launch... But, if for example, I have a social networking site. Would I want to use MailChimp to send User Signup confirmation Emalls / Password reset Emails / General contact emails...etc...? Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Thank you.

haku Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 You may want to use a service like that to send your mails to all your members, but not your registration mails and stuff like that - it makes no sense.

The Eagle Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Haku really covered all you should know. Use a large mailing service if say there's an update on your social networking service and you want everybody whose registered to know, in an mass email. (doing a mass email from your own webhosting account can violate ToS) Also, build the reset link and confirmation right into your script, it's just easier on your end.
