Getting Started Guide: Newsletter
This guide shows how to use the Newsletter tool offered by Infomaniak to create and send newsletters, which are recurring messages sent to multiple recipients.
Why use Newsletter instead of an Email Service
A newsletter is a periodic communication tool sent by email to a specific group of subscribers. It is generally aimed at informing, sharing news, updates, or relevant content on a specific topic, and maintaining a relationship with a targeted audience.
They can contain articles, announcements, promotions, links to recent content, upcoming events, and sometimes exclusive offers for subscribers. The main goal is to provide interesting and relevant content to engage and maintain the interest of subscribers.
Infomaniak Newsletter allows you to schedule and send newsletters to a list of email recipients who are expecting your communications; this way, you can effectively and personally conduct email marketing campaigns and maintain regular and relevant communication with your customers and subscribers.
Features include template creation, subscriber list management, performance analysis, and all this is not directly possible with a traditional Email Service. Moreover, the tool has its own independent interface within your browser, completely separate from Infomaniak Mail and does not require a mail application. This means that if you already have contacts to whom you want to write with their consent, you must first import them into the tool.
Prerequisites
- own a domain name on which you will activate the Newsletter
- access to its DNS zone if the domain name is not with Infomaniak
- create a domain name if necessary
- have Newsletter credits to enable sending (1 credit = 1 send)
You must have the explicit consent of your recipients via the double opt-in model. Sending spam and using purchased/rented address lists is prohibited. The owners of the domain name used to send the newsletters are legally responsible, and violation of the terms and conditions may result in account suspension.
