Mail It Plug In – Review

The subject of today’s review is the recently released Mail It Plug In.

This product comes in the form of a word press plugin and installs as a normal plug in.

So what exactly is the Mail It Plug In and what can it do for you.

The Mail It Plug In at it’s basic level is a fully functional self-hosted mailing WordPress plugin that provides improved delivery and open rates to what you will get with 3rd party email services like Aweber, GetResponse, Mailchimp and many others.

The real benefit of this Plug In is that you are no longer at the mercy of the aforementioned service providers, no more subscription payments, this Plug In is a one off payment.

With a self-hosted mailing service like Mail It, you have complete control of who you send emails to, when you send emails, and how you send emails.

To be perfectly honest I was a bit hesitant at the thought of installing my very own email service provider on my own hosting but was pleasantly surprised at just how straight forward it is, especially with the step by step video set up instructions provided within the plug in itself.

See an example of one of the training videos below, easy peasy lemon squeezy.
