If you’re starting an email list, you probably want something free.<\/p>\n

And considering there are dozens of email marketing platforms out there, it can be quite daunting to figure out which one to go with.<\/p>\n

So, we tried to tackle this ourselves. We went through every single email marketing platform to see who offered the free plan that gives you the most contacts \/ subscribers and the most emails you can send at a time. It’s feeling like MailJet might be the winner here. Who do you like?<\/p>\n
