You\u2019ll add email names, sender names, subject lines, preview texts, and email lists on a single page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-Email-Campaign-set-up-.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review Email Campaign settings\" class=\"wp-image-33177\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the same page, you\u2019ll decide if you want to track clicks, opens, and allow Google Analytics tracking. All these options on a single page save you a bunch of time and give a complete overview of your email settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re happy with your settings, it\u2019s time to choose your email template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Email Templates in EmailOctopus<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>EmailOctopus offers 34 email templates to choose from. There aren&#8217;t many compared to other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/email-service-provider-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"email marketing software (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">email marketing software<\/a>, but you\u2019ll be happy to see all templates are modern-looking and of high quality. Other email tools will offer 100s of templates but are low in quality. That\u2019s not the case here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"428\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-email-templates.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review email template examples\" class=\"wp-image-33185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-email-templates.png 650w, https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-email-templates-220x145.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The email templates cover both formats and goals.<br><br>For example, you have format emails for blogs, newsletters, and products. Then you have goal-oriented email templates like launch, engage, and review. EmailOctopus wants to make it easy to do email marketing. You\u2019ll notice that all these email templates seem most relevant to artists and creators, but they work fine for other industries too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EmailOctopus Email Editor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve selected an email template. It\u2019s time to start editing. This is where you use EmailOctopus\u2019s drag and drop editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-drag-and-drop-email-editor.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review drag and drop email builder\" class=\"wp-image-33173\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The drag and drop editor is designed with simplicity in mind. You have 7 major elements you can drag and drop onto your email. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Titles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Text<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Images<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Videos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Buttons<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Social buttons<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dividers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Custom code<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In EmailOctopus, you edit the text and title elements inside the preview. This is great because you immediately see how your copy and layout looks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Personalization is quick and easy. I clicked on \u201cMerge tags\u201d above the editor and it brought up this popup with the most common merge tags. I could just copy them in and that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"396\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-Personalize-your-email-content-with-merge-tags.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review personalize email content merge tags\" class=\"wp-image-33205\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Clicking on the \u201ccustomisation cheat sheet\u201d will take you to a help article. That shows handy things like merge tag formatting. But more importantly, it explains how to put <strong>dynamic content<\/strong> <strong>in your emails with conditional statements.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an example conditional statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>{% if Age &lt; 25 %}\n    Content 1\n{% elseif Age &lt; 50 %}\n    Content 2\n{% else %}\n    Content 3\n{% endif %}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><br>This will display Content 1 to subscribers younger than 25. Content 2 to subscribers below 50 and Content 3 to everyone else. Make sure to fully test your email before sending if you\u2019re using conditional statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EmailOctopus doesn\u2019t have AB testing built-in. There\u2019s a workaround to split your list then create separate emails for them. This is a lot of work to run a simple AB test. If you test lots of campaigns I\u2019d go with a different service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the \u2018Rows\u2019 tab, you can select layouts with multiple columns. The \u2018Settings\u2019 tab is useful for giving your emails a consistent look and feel. You\u2019ll decide which colors to use in text, titles, headers, etc. This is super handy if you want to give your emails consistent branding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After your content is ready. The editor lets you review all your content, settings, and when you want to send your email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, the email editor feels smooth to use. And even if you have no experience with email marketing, you\u2019ll grasp the tool in no time. It took me 10 minutes to create my first email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"ek-link buttonCTA\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/go\/emailoctopussignup\/\" target=\"_blank\">Get started with EmailOctopus for free here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"EmailOctopus_Autoresponders_automating_drip_campaigns\"><\/span>EmailOctopus Autoresponders: automating drip campaigns<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>EmailOctopus offers two basic automation features. Create welcome email campaigns and drip email sequences when a customer subscribes to your list. The creation process for automated email campaigns is the same as for regular emails. This makes the learning curve of EmailOctopus even shorter. You don\u2019t have to learn a complex automation builder like in advanced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/marketing-automation-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"marketing automation tools (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">marketing automation tools<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll create emails for a workflow list and decide how to space them out. You can set up automated emails to go out immediately, or hours and days after a subscriber signed up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-Autoresponders-email-automation.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review Autoresponders drip campaigns\" class=\"wp-image-33165\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>I did speak to the EmailOctopus team and they told me they have advanced automation workflows on the way. These will allow you to use action-based conditions to get more juice out of automated campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"EmailOctopus_Landing_Pages_Forms\"><\/span>EmailOctopus Landing Pages &amp; Forms<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Landing Pages<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Creating a landing page is simple. Choose a list for your subscribers and start building your page. Currently, EmailOctopus offers 5 landing page templates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"228\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-landing-page-templates.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review landing page template examples\" class=\"wp-image-33197\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The templates are simple-looking but serve as a good starting point for building a landing page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the drag and drop editor to add titles, images, videos, dividers, social buttons, and more. In the settings tab, you\u2019ll select your URL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"361\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-landing-page-editor.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review landing page builder\" class=\"wp-image-33193\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When a visitor subscribes through your landing page, show them a thank-you message or redirect them to a different page on your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another useful landing page feature is the \u2018SEO and analytics\u2019 section in the settings tab. Here you decide how you want your landing page to show up in search results and social media. Add a Google tracking code or Facebook Pixel ID to study how visitors interact with your landing pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Opt-in forms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With EmailOctopus you can create in-line forms and popups. You\u2019ll find 5 templates for both types of forms. Creating forms is easy compared to some other email marketing platforms. This is because you create your forms with the same drag and drop editor here too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply drag elements you need to add to your forms and drop them into the editor. You\u2019ll be able to add text, titles, images, dividers, and social icons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-popup-and-form-builder.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review drag and drop popup and form editor\" class=\"wp-image-33209\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Settings tab of the pop-up editor, you\u2019ll find the display options. Choose when to show your form according to visitor behavior. These behaviors include the amount of time spent, amount scrolled, exit intent, and link click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"EmailOctopus_List_Management\"><\/span>EmailOctopus List Management<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>EmailOctopus offers some useful features to keep your contacts organized. You can add up to 20 data fields for each contact. I found this quite easy to do. You go to your lists and click on add fields to start adding more data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re a European company or have customers in Europe, you\u2019ll be glad to know EmailOctopus is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/go\/emailoctopusgdpr\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"ek-link\">GDPR compliant<\/a>. And you can easily set up a double opt-in too. Go to your lists and select Double opt-in settings to enable it. The best part is you can design a confirmation email in seconds in the settings tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also easy to create and manage segments. Segment based on email activity or custom data fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-contact-segmentation-subscriber-filtering.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review segment and filter contacts\" class=\"wp-image-33169\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Create super precise segments by drilling down into filter groups. You can set a filter group to match all, any, or none of the filters inside it. Use filters like names, emails, sources and apply conditions like \u2018belongs to\u2019 \u2018doesn\u2019t belong to\u2019. With these segmentation options, it\u2019s easy to send email marketing campaigns that are precisely targeted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reporting and analytics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This simple email marketing tool comes equipped with useful reporting. You\u2019ll get access to real-time email campaign reports that show a line graph of subscriber activity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-email-marketing-service-reporting-and-analytics.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review reporting and analytics\" class=\"wp-image-33269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-email-marketing-service-reporting-and-analytics.png 600w, https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-email-marketing-service-reporting-and-analytics-220x145.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For each email, you can check opens, clicks, bounces, and unsubscribes. Dig into more detail by \u200b\u200bseeing how an individual subscriber responds to your emails. Get a historical overview of their activity and use insights to make segments and refine your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Integrations_connect_EmailOctopus_to_your_favorite_tools\"><\/span>Integrations: connect EmailOctopus to your favorite tools<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An email marketing platform is only as good as its ability to connect and share data with other apps. And EmailOctopus has done a good job of making integrations easy and accessible. This tool directly integrates with 47 apps, including Poptin, Carrd, OptinMonster, Payhip, and Ninja Forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also have Zapier, Make, and Integrately integrations which opens up the door for over 4000 other apps, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/woocommerce-vs-shopify\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Woocommerce, Shopify (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">Woocommerce, Shopify<\/a>, Leadpages, Airtable, and Webflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"528\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/EmailOctopus-Review-integrations-.png\" alt=\"EmailOctopus Review setting up integrations\" class=\"wp-image-33189\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To add an integration, go to your account and open \u2018Integrations and API\u2019 from the drop-down menu. The native integrations are easy to set up. Most can be done in about 5-10 sets without any coding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"EmailOctopus_Connect_sending_emails_via_your_own_Amazon_SES\"><\/span>EmailOctopus Connect: sending emails via your own Amazon SES<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s an option in EmailOctopus to connect it with your own Amazon SES account. This decreases the prices by a lot, especially for higher plans. As if EmailOctopus wasn\u2019t cheap enough. Sending via Amazon SES decreases the costs for EmailOctopus and they pass those savings to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s even better is that Amazon will not charge you for the first 62,000 emails you send in a month! Even after that, you&#8217;ll pay them $0.10 for every additional 1,000 emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have some tech knowledge or someone who can help you, this is the best option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"ek-link buttonCTA\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/go\/emailoctopussignup\/\" target=\"_blank\">Get started with EmailOctopus for free here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EmailOctopus Customer Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Reach out to EmailOctopus\u2019 customer support via chat or email.
