Its intuitive email editor is a great example. It doesn\u2019t have the biggest choice of newsletter templates, but it\u2019s very easy to put together your own emails. That&#8217;s because it has pre-formatted content blocks. For instance with an article summary, image, and button combo. <br><br>Drag a block on the canvas and quickly put together a newsletter. With an RSS feed, your blog or news gets turned into a newsletter. Other blocks include social media feeds, videos, quizzes, and surveys. The email editor also has an AI writing assistant that can write headlines, product descriptions, and even full newsletters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"423\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MailerLite-best-email-newsletter-editor.png\" alt=\"MailerLite best email newsletter editor\" class=\"wp-image-73547\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MailerLite Pricing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/go\/mailerliteprice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"ek-link\">MailerLite pricing starts at $10<\/a> a month.

It\u2019s all about email, and it\u2019s all about simplicity. Creating your newsletter starts with more than 200 templates to choose from. They are good-looking, and you can search by industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Benchmark-newsletter-editor-1.png\" alt=\"Benchmark newsletter editor\" class=\"wp-image-73472\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Benchmark\u2019s drag-and-drop editor is intuitive. All the navigation is done via icons, and the layout is clear. There are lots of prompts to help you, too. A feature I like is the new Smart Content AI tool. Think ChatGTP for email marketing. Just tell it what you want your newsletter to be about. And it suggests optimised text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One slight downside to the Benchmark editor is I don\u2019t find the layouts very flexible. You can only move content blocks around to a limited number of positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"532\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Benchmark-smart-content-newsletters-1.png\" alt=\"Benchmark smart content newsletters\" class=\"wp-image-73477\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from building newsletters, Benchmark also offers 2 tiers of automation. Simple autoresponders are free on all plans. More advanced customer journey automation is available on the higher tiers. Benchmark is good for list management and segmentation, with strong list-cleaning tools. This helps to avoid your email domain being flagged as spam. You can build forms and landing pages to capture new leads.

It was founded back in 1998 when sending email newsletters was still a new thing. Right from the moment you sign up, you feel in safe hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s another platform that scores high for ease of use. You\u2019ll have no problem getting comfortable with it even if you\u2019ve never sent a newsletter before. There are handy prompts to guide you through every stage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, the stand-out feature of AWeber is newsletter design. There are more than 600 templates to choose from. One of the best selections in any email marketing tool. And a user-friendly drag-and-drop editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AWeber-drag-and-drop-email-newsletter-editor-1.png\" alt=\"AWeber drag and drop email newsletter editor\" class=\"wp-image-73452\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>But the star features are the Smart Designer and <strong>Canva integration<\/strong>. The Smart Designer creates branded templates based on your website. And Canva is a brilliant graphic design tool. Its drag-and-drop interface makes custom designs easy and fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/AWeber-smart-designer-2.png\" alt=\"AWeber smart designer\" class=\"wp-image-73462\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>AWeber comes with 24\/7 live chat support on all paid plans. And there are 750+ direct integrations available with other software. Automation is limited compared to other services. Including caps on how many automations you can build on cheaper plans.

This leaves many users looking for <a aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/mailchimp-alternatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">better Mailchimp alternatives<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we focus on just sending newsletters, Mailchimp does have some strengths. A content optimiser gives you tips on your email content, which is nice. And a send time optimiser tells you the best time to send so contacts see your message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Mailchimp-creative-assistant-newsletters-1.png\" alt=\"Mailchimp creative assistant newsletters\" class=\"wp-image-73532\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use predictive analytics to single out the best contacts to send a campaign to.

But you\u2019re restricted to sending 6,000 emails. Prices go up steeply as you add more contacts and increase email send limits. The Essentials plan only gives you access to basic features, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a Free plan with a limit of 1000 emails a month and 500 contacts. This doesn&#8217;t allow you to use your own HTML and has Mailchimp branding.
