Thread: Feedburner Email Marketing

Has anyone had success using Feedburner as an Email Marketing tool? So far the benefits that I've deduced are:
1. Can get more blog views.
2. Get paid for Adsense or advertising in your posts.
3. Email doesn't usually get filed into junk.
4. Gives you a method to get email subscribers in your website.

What do you think about Feedburner?

I think Feedburner is a great service. However if you don't want to deliver your entire posts via email, maybe a good alternative is to use excerpts instead the full posts (but always remains the alternative to use services like Wizard RSS to transform them).

I used to use this but every so often it would not update and the posts to the RSS would be older and people would not get the update, I therefore switched to Jetpack with Wordpress CMS works the same for E-mailing posts out, I wasn't getting many hits from feedburner in terms of traffic anyways.

if you really serious into making high quality email list and wanna make your emails last longer and also delivered well, many experience IM suggest to use autoresponder such as aweber or other paid service instead of feedburner.. i mean if you are really serious on email marketing

I think email marketing is more serious than that and can be a lot more profitable is you start the right way and build a proper, responsive list.

i agreed, the more responsive list you have the more reputation you will get, especially if the mailing list that subscriber subscribed are the primary email for them, some people have more than 3 email and only 1 or 2 become their primary email

With your current subscribers yes. Online...I don't see how your reputation would grow, unless your current subscribers are referring others.
Primary email addres or not...don't forget that most subscribe to a list to get something for free and if the newsletter or messages are useless to them...they'll just unsubscribe after the first email. However, if you manage to get their attention by designing your first autoresponder message with awesome info, you'll be able to build trust.

i don't know how many people like me, i do have make emails just for grabbing free product, ebook, etc.I don't even check it even though i accidentally subscribe the newsletter, my purpose make that email just to get free thing that being promote. But if i find, the newsletter is very important for me, i will use my primary email that i open every day to subscribe
