Most free autoresponder accounts will restrict one or both of these.

Once you’re on a paid plan they’ll often restrict the number of subscribers you can have, but not the number of emails you can send.

Aweber’s latest moves restrict both on a paid plan.

If you send emails everyday the restrictions will force you to a higher subscriber plan than you might like.

Many current subscribers are unhappy about this change, but they feel that they’ve been locked into staying because they have so many landing pages that the work to change is too great.

Then there are all their links that already point to the Aweber landing pages.

Smart account holders have all their links through a third-party tool so it’s a simple change to the target URL and their links work as they should.

Dumb or lazy ones have their work cut out for them to make the changes, and it’s possibly not viable to do.

What alternatives are there to this behaviour?

https://go.wm-tips.com/systeme allows 2,000 subscribers on their free plan and unlimited emails to those subscribers.

When you choose a paid plan that subscriber limit goes to 5,000, 10,000, and unlimited depending on the plan you choose.

Aweber’s Unlimited plan is $899 per month, Systeme’s is $95.

Does Aweber have better delivery?

Not that I’ve seen.

In any case, delivery is based on your account quality, not the autoresponder’s.

Another alternative is https://go.wm-tips.com/llhome.

The autoresponder in LeadsLeap is called SendSteed and the free account allows unlimited subscribers but only 10 broadcasts a month.

There is only one paid level and that removes all the restrictions for a miserly $27 per month.

Grab a free account at one or both of these, play around with the tools to get a feel for what you like.

They both have great training, and I use both so you can always ask for help via email.
