The 19 Highest Ranked Email Marketing Services (In Order)

January 18, 2018 By John Lincoln

Choosing the right one can have a big impact on your overall success. In this article, I list my 19 highest rated email marketing services for businesses of all sizes.

 HIGHEST RANKED EMAIL MARKETING SERVICES (IN ORDER)

It’s safe to say that email marketing isn’t going anywhere.

In fact, if possible it’s only getting bigger, and 59% of B2B marketers say email is their most effective channel in terms of revenue generation.

Part of the reason it continues to be so effective is due to the use of email marketing services, which keep marketers up-to-date and on task when it comes to their email campaigns.

Why Use Email Marketing Services?

Email marketing services provide your business with all the tools necessary to create and execute email marketing campaigns.

They generally include everything from starter templates, design tools, contact management tools.

Emails are sent out through their own servers, and come with a variety of metrics that monitor everything from spam and bounce rate to open and click through rate.

Additionally, most will integrate with your contact list and give you the ability to embed sign-up and opt-in forms on your website, so any new contacts will automatically be added to your list.

In short, it streamlines the email marketing process for you and gives you a set of accurate analytics to keep track of your progress.

It’s an extremely popular way to deliver real results, and 51% of companies are using some sort of email automation. On top of that, 91% of the most successful users agree that marketing automation is “very important” to their marketing across channels.

And the best part? It works.

Automated emails get 119% higher clicks than broadcast emails, and companies that automate emails are 133% more likely to send messages that coincide with the purchase cycle of their customers.

Convinced you should give a try? Great. Any one of the services below are an excellent place to start.
