Who do you use for adult newsletter provider? - GoFuckYourself.com

Having a hard time finding someone who will allow our content, which isn't even adult oriented.

Just news, fights, and some hot babes - all non-nude.

But we keep getting kicked off platforms. Dunno why bc our content is adsense friendly... any leads would be helpful.

thanks!

Are you contacting them and asking or getting terminated after signing up and paying?

What's your complaint %?

I use Brevo and Mailgun for adult dating although the emails are SFW and the hardest keyword is "hookup".

Signed up at mailerlite - and within hours was banned. No subscribers, never emailed. They just sent me a generic TOS/Spam email lol

I'm like I never even sent a message yet... but here we are.

I don't have any adult content other than some chicks in bathing suits, so I dunno what they were doing. Made no sense.

I mean there's hundreds if not thousands of ESPs out there. It sounds like you haven't really got started? What made you choose mailerlite?

AWS SES through my own software.

We wanted to leave mailchimp as it got too pricey. We collected a ton of emails, but each solution we go to gives us issues.

beehiiv cut us off after a month and we had to fight to get our refund. Those guys are douches... watched us email people for like a month, then decided (after we upgraded for the year) that they'd cut us off. I feel like having adult content would actually be easier, but it wasn't... lame ass news stuff.

Really looking for an automated solution that would blast our rss feeds out once per day.

Great, just been enjoying living in San Francisco. Flew my niece to town this past weekend and took her out to show her the city and California vibe to entice her to be more ambitious and get out of small town Iowa. Other than that, just plugging away at trying to swindle a VC-- err I mean secure an investment for $10M for my company.

How you been?

If it does well enough, you could probably sell it to one of the big providers. Can you automate it with RSS feeds? I'd test it out if it could!

Been working on mainstream stuff lately, but brought back our 'hot' section just for fun!

It's for sale, BIN is $100M though, but it comes with more than just newsletter abilities. It comes with a full blown modern cloud hosting platform and infrastructure.

Could be part of the problem. If your emails are showing low engagement and you get any amount of complaints at all they're going to drop you. Are you at least validating emails, sending confirmation emails, dropping unengaged recipients?

I thought MailChimp was pricey haha! Look, if Bezos don't buy it, then the best I can do is a discount on Taco Tuesday!

We did have some low engagement, but I used segmentation to filter out the people who don't engage.

It was just funny with Mailerlite tho - we never even sent an email. Just got banned hours after signing up. Was kinda cracking up like how can I get banned for something when I literally just filled out the form and created a popunder (that they provide) and it didn't even go live yet
