Mass Email My Members (500k)
Oct 26, 2009I'm currently owning a website with little less than 500,000 users. Many of these users have been asking if I could send out updates about the site per email, like once per week or preferably once per day.
I'm not sure about the best way to do this. I did some reading and some people seem to suggest to get an extra dedicated server to send out the emails. Others say it's best to use a cloud service with SMTP relay, while I also saw suggestions to use a website like [url]
I have checked into mailchimp, and appearantly this whole thing will be very expensive if I want to send out email to so many users. I'm not an email marketeer and neither do I sell products, so the profit per user I would email is probably low. The primairy reason I want to send out updates is to keep my current memberbase happy, and to get some older inactive members to become active again. We had our site totally reworked recently, and it would be nice to let people know about that.
I also like to know if it's possible, in any service, to somehow unsubscribe users whos email addresses are no longer valid in an efficient way.
Some more facts:
- Those 500k users are 250k effective emails. The other people have never subscribed on registration, are blocked for misbehaviour on the site, or have unsubscribed at some point.
- As stated above, people have to subscribe upon registration. The checkbox for this is unchecked on default
- The oldest users in my database are 3 years old, so there is quite a chance emails might be no longer active.
- There are many scams in the industry I'm active in (survey panel). As a result, users are sceptical, and sometimes use alternate email addresses for registration. I believe that as a result of this there is a higher chance the email is nog longer in use than on other sites, although I have no stats of other websites to compare with.
- I once tried to send out email to 75k users on my current dedicated server. As a result, Yahoo deferred my emails (which caused trouble for the verification emails we send out upon registration). I contacted Yahoo and they whitelisted my server, but I don't feel like trying to send email from my current dedicated server again. Not to mention that the server had a lot of trouble sending out so many emails, the server load was really high while sending out all email.
How To Send NewsLetters From Bluehost To Phpbb3 Members ?
Feb 9, 2009I am using Bluehost as my primary / public server and yes had my own horror stories with them.. But I am still with them since they sorted things out with me. Any way... Bluehost has a Cap Limit of you can send somewhat 50 - 500 mails ( I just called them and raised it to 500).
I run a phpbb3 forum and want to send monthly newsletters to my members, I have more then 500 people so how exactly can I send them newsletters ?
Is there any special script that you use or special software that I need to run that will automatically get the email list from the phpbb3 board and send the emails every hour or something ?

Moderation Software For WHM/CPanel For Your Staff Members

View 1 Replies View RelatedVPS In Europe And How Much Do I Need
Mar 3, 2009I will have to deploy a site into VPS (or dedicated or amazon EC2, I don't really know yet, but I thik it could be VPS).
First of all I don't know how strong server do I need. It's rails application with 800k (up to 1million) pageviews per month. Could you tell me how much traffic do you have on your VPSes? It's rails app, so I think I will need RAM at first place.
The other requirements are:
* Server in Europe
* Stability
* Good support
* Root access

Colocation - Europe - NL Or DE
Aug 21, 2009recommendations for colocation in Europe, preferably NL or DE based?
Basic requirement:
1-5U initially, option to expand into half and full rack over time.
Reasonably priced bandwidth.
Decent remote hands when needed.
A sensible AUP would also be a requirement. I prefer a host to give you an opportunity to address any issues (such as a compromised system, copyright protected content, or similar) *before* they actually pull the plug. From what I have seen, some hosts will disable your switch port(s) almost the moment they receive a complaint - which is not acceptable.

View 6 Replies View RelatedManaged VPS In Europe
Aug 12, 2008A friend has asked me to recommend a company for a Managed VPS solution, one that must be in hosted in Europe (I suggested that he might want to look to the USA but he doesn't want to). As I really don't know too much about European VPS solutions as I mainly deal with US datacenters and companies I wanted to ask for a recommendation.
He requires a managed linux VPS solution, with a control panel that can manage files, email, databases etc, so whether its directadmin, cPanel, Plesk or whatever, it doesn't really matter.
He is looking for the following specs:
20-30GB HDD
128 or more RAM
Bandwidth doesn't particularly matter as long as its not too low.
The budget is £20 or under (around $40) per month, so he's obviously looking at quite a low-end solution.
Windows, Europe
Jul 14, 2008I'm currently using 1&1 Germany. Great service, but only in German and Google translator is getting to some funny translations. I've looked at 1&1 UK, but their prices are higher for slower servers with less RAM.
I don't want a server in the US.
I'd like Window 2003, or preferably 2008 with Hyper-V installed.

Sep 16, 2008Im gonna run Zimbra webmail on a server, i dont really care where i host it (and i dont think a VPS will do for it), as long as its not in USA (slow for me as i live in Sweden).
Where should i host it?
Checked Leaseweb and they want 29 euro/month for a dedicated server with 512mb ram, CPU dosnt really matter as long as its atleast the same as leaseweb (sempron 3100+).
Is there any as cheap, or cheaper than that? I found many in .uk and .nl, xeneurope (only VPS?), etc..
I find 29euro/month + a domain VERY cheap..

Feb 12, 2009I did do a search of the forum and it showed a few results, mostly non UK and some which were no longer online.
Now I'll make my own topic doh.
What I am looking for is a host which allows UDP + TCP sockets(fsockopen) so I can query gameservers from my hosting + send other commands to other programs.
Must be located in the UK and be fast
Offering a reseller option is a plus, but not required.
Good Europe / UK Host

So I'm on the look out for another UK hosting co. with a decent feature set but more importantly perhaps is their support response time replying to queries etc.

What does this mean for European consumers? The E versions of Windows 7 will include all the features and functionality of Windows 7 in the rest of the world, other than browsing with Internet Explorer. Computer manufacturers will be able to add any browser they want to their Windows 7 machines, including Internet Explorer, so European consumers who purchase new PCs will be able to access the Internet without any problem.
