Expensive Autoresponder versus Using FREE everything....

Hello, I started intenret marketing a LONG time ago.... when the internet was a different place (talk about dinosaurs; remember the floppy????). Since then I have gone through ever scam you can think of.

I remember GetResponse when it was new. I hated it the CP was confusing and it was freaking expensive.

Well now everyone's using it and I think it's mainly because of the affiliate credit in referring other's; I mean if you are in IM you want to refer all your downline/followers to great products and get a cut if you can right?

OR is that GetResponse does everything you could want?

I have come a long way in using FREE everything I could get my hands on. I have installed free eCommerce Scripts, used free newspapers creators, free list builders, free plugins for everything you can imagine, etc.

So buying anything scares me because what if I something happens and I don't have that money to pay that monthly bill when it comes in?

So after this LONG WINDEDNESS (don't care if that ain't a word!), I do have a question...?

Why NOT ListWire or Mailchimp (Okay they aren't free autoresponder, but I believe cheaper than GR), but why GetResponse?

OR are there any FREE autoresponders that do the same thing, OR BETTER YET, since I have my own website is there some type of plugin (wordpress) or freebie app. that comes with GoDaddy that would work as well?

Thanks for anyone who takes the time to attempt my left handed dyslexic ADD question.

    That's not much of a choice, is it?

    You're comparing only the two extremes, and missing out everything in-between, apparently? Which is a shame, because both the two best, most reliable, most widely recommended autoresponders (GetResponse and Aweber) are low-to-medium price. Not quite free, but certainly not expensive at all.

    Free autoresponders are not like free hosting. You can start off with free hosting and correct it later, with a little inconvenience but no disasters. Free autoresponders are different. They're monetized, and you pay for them in ways much worse than "giving them money". This explains in more detail: http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post9250598
