The BEST Email Newsletter Platforms! Will YOU Build The Next Milk Road?
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
If you're wanting to create a branded, email newsletter and website then you have a lot of great options. The most popular option today is Beehiiv: davidutke.com/beehiiv
A branded newsletter is where you setup a weekly (typically) email newsletter about a specific topic. The email newsletter itself is the product and is a great business model if you're able to get enough subscribers.
My top four choices on the list:
Beehiiv - Currently the most popular, email newsletter website platform:
davidutke.com/beehiiv
Ghost - Ghost is great blogging platform and ideal for creating a newsletter website: davidutke.com/ghost
Substack - While i'm not crazy about having a website on a subdomain, there is no denying that Substack provides a great platform for a solo newsletter creator.
Squarespace - Yea, I'm surprised too but when you combine their website builder and their email forms, you got a really powerful and creative combination: davidutke.com/squarespace

@@DavidUtkeI think Beehiiv doesn't have email marketing, but does it have a good blog and website or is it just a newsletter?
Great job and overview David👌Using Substack now but will try Kajabi next. Cheers

Do you have any videos on how to change Wordpress themes for a website? I have found a theme I prefer but am scared I'll "break" my website trying to switch.
Hey David is it possible to send newsletter you created for other people from websites like Beehiiv if so how can you? I appreciate this video
Quality video, most informative. 👌

Excellent video! However, your Squarespace link isn't working for me.

Would help if I spelled my own name correctly. Updated it and thank you.
On squarespace if you buy a domain from them do you need to also go into your DNS and set up your email? Like dkim spf keys etc? Or is it already done for you because they also provide the email service?

Yes exactly, Squarespace allows you to add in custom DNS records.
I was hoping to see the end result of a newsletter. So many online builders will not let me copy/paste from a word doc w/o major formatting problems. If you have another video showing the end result, I"d love to see it. Thank you

I do, but I breakdown these platforms into individual tutorials where I show what then end user experience is like.

@@AR-gq6rq Beehiiv is the choice. If you don't like that one, then ConvertKit. I wouldn't go beyond that.
I've built a Hostinger website already for blogging. What would you recommend for just the newsletter component?

Sure, Convert Kit or Active Campaign are the most powerful and feature rich for email marketers (I use Convert Kit). Aweber and Mailchimp have good free plans.

Thanks but I'd prefer to not have to manage two different sites. Would a WordPress plugin do the trick for a site I'm currently building?@@DavidUtke

i think beehiiv will steal a newsletter idea if they deem it a good one

Why you think that? If you really worry about then, I would use Ghost or Squarespace even.
